Have you ever wondered what type of questions were asked during the PSLE oral and which category/theme those questions fall under?
I like to work on such questions independently from the theme with my students. Not all SBC questions need to fall under a specific theme. I realised that many students assume that questions 2 and 3 of SBC require them to use the theme of the poster. While the question may be linked somewhat to the theme, the answers should come from their own personal experiences.
For example, one of my students who has just completed his Preliminary oral exam had it on the theme of ‘time management’. One of the questions asked was ‘How do you motivate yourself to achieve your goals?’ This question, while may be linked to the theme of time management, would require the student to first list his short-term and/or long-term goals, followed by how he motivates himself to achieve those. Thus, it requires personal experiences.
I often give my students such questions to prepare without a poster or a theme. Personally, I believe that it is a way to prepare for any surprises the PSLE may have in store for them.
Here is a list of Past PSLE SBC questions, that both P5 and P6 students can prepare on their own through their own personal experiences.
