ok blog have been hibernating for months..now i am back to blogging.ok exams over results so far ...well i feel some improvements but i felt that some subjects can still be improved if i had work harder.i was reading a news article on the weekend today newspaper.It was under the section"voices" written by a secondary school teacher. let me just summarise what he said. basically what he said was the high standard or i should sae the unrealistic standards set by the primary schools to prepare their students for the psle exams. P4 are doing p5 work n p5 din p6 and p6 doing SECONDARY SCH work! mind you secondary school work that involve things lyk algebra etc. and the best part is tht primary school student are only allow to the use the traditional model method to do the sums. He had also talked about the difficulty level of the current examination papers that are meant to kill students.well well well...i am glad that finally this matter had been brought to attention...primary school student doin work that are not suitable for them have been around since my time when i was in p6. i could still remember how much i suffered under that stupid idea. Maths paper was getting tougher n tougher. It seems like maths paper then was set onli for students who are from the EM1 streams...did they even gave a fuck about the other streams? well i doubt. teachers seem to be veri happy and feel a sense of achievement when students are unable to do their exam papers. well herez a question that i post to these teachers: are you a sadist? whats the point of setting such difficult papers...yes u may say it is to prevent them from getting complacent. i agree that a certain amount of difficulty is a must..but not that much! what u teachers are doing now will only demoralise the primary school students! They will lose self-confidence and how do u expect them to meet the challenges when they rise to secondary school and all the wae to JCs...
