2020 PSLE Discussions and Strategies(for those born in 2008)

[coast]

When my DS took his PSLE Oral a few years ago, he said that many of his friends were so nervous that they were sweating even though they were in an air-conditioned waiting area. Thankfully, the teacher noticed their nervousness and told them some jokes to help soothe their nerves.


Do remind your kids not to be over anxious. Stay calm and confident!

All the best to their PSLE Oral! :rahrah:

A few more days to PSLE Oral (13 or 14 Aug).

Here’s a few pointers that I went through with my DS for Stimulus-based Conversation:-

1)\tSmile, speak confidently and maintain eye contact with examiner.
2)\tThink of possible questions, ideas and responses from the picture stimulus.
3)\tListen carefully to the questions asked. Seek clarification with the examiner when in doubt, e.g., “Could you please repeat your question?”
4)\tSpeak in standard English (no Singlish). Use a wide range of vocabulary accurately.
5)\tTreat it as a conversation. Share real-life personal experiences. Elaborate on your responses and support them with reasons and examples.

Do not forget to greet the examiners before you start and remember to thank them at the end.

All the best to your DD/ DS!

Thanks for sharing.

Does your DS need to wear school uniform? Or can wear PE top?

Do ask him to sleep early tonight.

All the best to his PSLE Oral! :rahrah:

2020 PSLE Oral


You will wear your face mask at all times. During attendance taking, you may be asked to remove your mask for a short while to verify your identity. You will remove your face mask at the reading aloud and oral interaction segments during the Oral Examination. This is to minimise any impediment to the clarity of your oration during the examination.

All the best! :rahrah:

There are sample pictures posted on MOE’s Facebook page. Suggest you show your child to familiarize them with the new plastic protective screens. Need to speak louder and project their voice further since the teachers will be sitting far away and behind the screen.

Session 2 candidates can go off once they are done. Last candidate should be dismissed around 130pm or so.
