step up Your Answering Technique to Upper Block Science

Primary 4 Decoding Open Ended Questions Masterclass:

“BUILD YOUR FOUNDATION RIGHT!”

 

P4 Decoding Open Ended Questions Masterclass: “Build Your Foundation Right” is a premier Primary 4 Answering Technique Workshop led by seasoned PSLE Science Specialist and experienced PSLE Marker Jayce Or, to help students Decode Open Ended Science questions with ease.

Hi, my name is Jayce Or, and I am a PSLE Science Specialist. In my over 20 years of teaching in MOE schools and in tuition centers, I have seen more than a fair share of students and parents who feel discouraged in tackling Primary Science Paper – especially Open Ended Questions, with confidence.

Here are some core frustrations that you may be observing in your child’s papers for some time:

1. Your child cannot seem to answer according to what the question demands.
2. Your child tends to read the question and start writing out the answers immediately.
3. He/She fails to pick out the correct clues in the question.
4. He/She cannot write answers to satisfy the full awarding of marks.
5. He/She falls prey to poor answering techniques, weak representation of concepts and appear to be missing out key scientific vocabulary.

A Systematic Approach to Decoding PSLE Science

Over the years, I have developed the simple and proven PEAK™ Science Heuristics methodology that has helped many students unlock the tools for understanding and process questions at a glance.

This effective and proven heuristic framework equips the child to see clearly what the question demands and how to answer it.

It cuts through hours and hours of ineffective drilling and pounding through assessment books with no good effect.

The heuristic gives each child who learns it THE EDGE to answer science questions strategically and confidently.

This holiday, I am conducting another run of this P4 Science Masterclass “Build Your Foundation Right”. With a specific emphasis on the MOE Primary Science Lower Block curriculum, this masterclass is designed to help students establish the RIGHT fundamentals in approaching Open Ended Questions in Paper 2 of Primary Science.
