English Oral Prep & Announcements
Note to all of you guys:
English Oral is on Thursday, 2.30pm (I THINK, i'm using my memory). Check with benedict for your waiting rooms and examination rooms because i practically forgot. I only know that register 2 - 13 are waiting in 1-4 and taking the exam in 1-5, and register number 1 is taking the exam in another class i think. (My memory's not up to scratch. Sorry =X)
Okay these guidelines may sound like common sense or some gibberish, but you should remember those lest you get panicky.
1) Practice practice practice! Even if you're an eloquent speaker, you will still benefit somehow from practice. You can get those assessment books from popular if you haven't done so. One book is by longman which focuses on technique and strategies (less on past year papers and practices) which has an audio CD bundled with it (SGD7.50) while the other one that Mr Tan uses to give us the mock exams. Get the one that your prefer (I doubt you need both seriously).
2) The topics that can be tested in oral are quite broad and in some cases, difficult to discuss about. This will pose less of a problem if you read a lot, especially in current affairs, as your knowledge of many issues will be quite sufficient. You can also refer to the so-called Four Year Series book and look through the 40 topics that came out in the past 4 years. It should be pretty sufficient.
3) As with Chinese Oral. the emphasis other than on your performance in the exam is the impression that you have on the teacher. Things like manners, greeting the teacher, maintaining eye-contact. The longman book has advice on that.
That's just my two or three cents worth. Good luck for oral.
Okay, that's just for oral. Now to announcements.
English comprehension on New York. Do it and bring to class during the next English lesson. Mr Tan will probably just go through.
GEOGRAPHY: COASTS is not tested for FYE! So for now, you should just have to revise everything from the beginning of the year. No worries about learning a new topic. (Refer to sharepoint if you don't believe)
Chinese: Please just bring your white booklet for every Chinese lesson. You don't want to end up outside the classroom...
Biology: Biology MCQ Test 2 and Respiration Structured Test on WEDNESDAY. Please see Ms Saras for your biology essays if you are supposed to and have not done so yet, before wednesday.
Physics: Light + Waves Test on TUESDAY. Fail this and you get tons of homework and remedials.
Maths: E Maths test on Friday on ANYTHING that can come up for FYE. Don't forget to revise trigo!
