“I don’t know how to explain to my child why his answer is wrong…”
Dear parents, do you find difficulty in explaining to your child why his answer looks acceptable yet still fails to hit the mark?
Many concerned parents are not aware of what the PSLE Science Paper requires and how to guide their children in answering open ended questions. They are clueless on how to help their child craft suitable answers in the examinations.
What exactly are your children missing out in their answers? If you are a parent who desires to guide your child, this workshop is for you.

Why are students getting it all WRONG?
Hi, I’m Jayce Or, Founder of Germinate and Author (My Pal’s Science Tests Xtra, P5&6, Marshall Cavendish). My students know me affectionately as Teacher Jayce or Science Dad Sg. As an experienced, former PSLE Science Marker, I have seen more than a fair share of students and parents who feel discouraged in tackling the PSLE Science Paper – especially Open Ended Questions, with confidence.
Here are some core frustrations that you may be observing in your child’s papers for some time:
- Your child tends to read the question and start writing out the answers immediately.
- He/She fails to pick out the correct clues in the question.
- He/She cannot write answers to satisfy the full awarding of marks.
- He/She falls prey to poor answering techniques, weak representation of concepts and appear to be missing out key scientific vocabulary.
A Systematic Approach to Decoding PSLE Science
Over the years, I have developed the simple and proven PEAK™ Science Heuristics methodology that has helped many students unlock the tools for understanding and process questions at a glance. This effective and proven heuristic framework equips the child to see clearly what the question demands and how to answer it.
- It cuts through hours and hours of ineffective drilling and pounding through assessment books with no good effect.
- The heuristic gives each child who learns it THE EDGE to answer science questions strategically and confidently.
- Every year, when I teach it to my students at my answering techniques masterclasses and many of them easily improve by 1 or 2 grades! Bottom line, the method WORKS. EFFECTIVELY.
