Tips to ace PSLE Science

PSLE Science has been one the most interesting subjects for students, yet when it comes to exams every candidate worries about the subject and feels it harder to ace the subject. This is one of the main reasons why Primary School Science tuition is in such high demand in Singapore. If your child is struggling with Science, here are a few pointers that may be useful both in preparing for the exam and performing well on the actual paper.

Experiment with Interesting Experiments at Home


Conducting simple but enjoyable experiments at home is an excellent way to help your child develop an interest in the subject, visualize various topics, and observe how some scientific concepts work in real life. This boosts their confidence and comprehension when answering PSLE Science questions. It enables students to see how scientific concepts are linked to experiments and how they can be applied in real-world situations.

Examine the questions thoroughly.

When time is limited in a stressful environment like PSLE, it's natural for students to prioritize answering questions as quickly as possible out of fear of not having enough time to answer every question. It doesn't help that PSLE Science questions are frequently quite long, as they must be as detailed as possible. So taking enough time to understand the questions is really important


Adapt Answers to Various Questions

It is just as important to be familiar with the various types of questions in PSLE Science as it is with the syllabus. Questions requiring you to "state," "name," or "list," for example, are only asking for simple recall answers, so your child does not need to write an essay for those types of questions. Other open-ended questions, on the other hand, require detailed explanations of how the answer is derived, so knowing how to differentiate between the two types of questions will help your child save valuable time during the exam.


Use Scientific Language to Get More Points

Knowing the correct answer is one thing, but in PSLE Science, students are also tested on their ability to understand what certain scientific phenomena are called as part of their syllabus understanding. This is especially important in Section B or the open-ended section of the paper. Your child will be expected to understand these scientific terms, and using them in their answers will help them score higher marks.
