Dear children,

We spent some time going through the English practice test today. Although we didn't have anyone scoring full marks this time round, I'm glad many of you were really close! Almost half the class scored 20 or more marks out of 25 marks. That's quite good, but we can do better! After today's lesson, you would have known where you went wrong. Put in effort to work on those areas and I'm sure you will do better for the actual English test next Tuesday! :)

We also went through some questions from the AskNLearn Math Practice Quiz 1. That should help you prepare for your math test tomorrow, which will begin at 1.30 p.m..

Here are some reminders:

1) There is spelling tomorrow.

2) If you did not bring your composition corrections to submit today, please pass it to me tomorrow.

3) Show your parents the English practice test paper and request for their signature.

4) Flip through all the pages in your Chicken Rice booklet. We have gone through all the questions in class before, so please work on the remaining corrections at home on your own. Here are the answers to some parts of the booklet which you might need more help with:
