Out of the 3 most challenging ones circulated online for PSLE 2019 Maths, the pattern question was possibly the most difficult. However, this is a pattern question of moderate difficulty if you were to compare 2018 SA2 papers. The green font shows the reasoning process and the blue font shows the required equations.

Below are similar pattern questions from 2018 SA2 papers.

Thank you for sharing.

By any chance would you know - Are pattern questions not too heavily tested?

I havent done much homework. However, I have glanced thru 2019 prelim papers from about 8 schools. Not many pattern questions leh? Pattern questions mostly choot in P4 and P5 papers?

Do you know which area your child needs help with?

I know chenlaoshi was a former MOE chinese language teacher. Just not sure what area of effectiveness u’re looking for, but you can ask him.

Encourage yr child to read more books. Vocabulary goes along with usage ability. Pointless learning vocabulary words (which sch alr testing in spelling lists) but the child do not use them appropriately.

Also, less gadget time, as Mr Sherman of Academia once advised that today’s generation engaged too much on screentime (TV, laptop, hp, ...) & the brain has not been trained enuf to think & analyse & most of these kids can’t sit quietly with a book anymore after their screen excitements.

Start now after giving time for your child to relax (a play dates, movie time, outing to Sc Center, Rick climbing, swimming, riding, etc) in btwn study & revision in weak subjects or topics. Practice & lots of practices to keep the mind sharp & we’ll wheeled.

After term start next year, there’s not much time to sit & focus as teachers will be busy dishing out past papers for practices. Nov & Dec is the best time w/o sch hmwk to distract yr child fr going thro the principles of a topic or practice the rudiments or formula to apply.

All the best!
