Make your school result as good as possible
There are a lot of studying activities in school. The students are required to complete a series of classworks, group works, projects, quizzes, tests and examinations. Each of your study activities will be counted into your school marks.
During the Year 5 and early Year 6 school year, you need to achieve your best possible results from all of the school academic activities. As a result, your accumulated scores will have a great benefit to your Selective School Test result.
Writing
Writing is always a challenging subject to most primary students. Other than the insufficient knowledge in words and phrases, primary students may have limited ideas writing topics.
Reading can improve the quality of writing. Reading enhances the students both in vocabulary and phrases used and inspires their ideas in writing. Book reading can also improve their ability to express their thought and sharpen their creative writing style as well.
Practice makes perfect. Regular practicing in writing will no doubt improve results.
General Ability (G.A.)
Primary schools do not provide this subject at school. G.A. is general knowledge in English, Mathmatics and visual patterns.
English questions in G.A. include words meaning, word usage, synonyms, antonyms, grammar, punctuation etc.
Math questions would be some tricky questions testing the students necessary mathematics knowledge. Number patterns are a popular type of questions in G.A.
Visual pattern questions share a small slice in G.A. Students with no exposure to the visual pattern questions will struggle in this subject. They may be stuck on a question then lose time for the others.
To improve the situation, you can enrol for a tutoring class. Tutoring centres they arrange tutoring in G.A. which would provide you with the selective school test papers for practice. The tutors will explain how to solve the questions in details.
