UPSR Clinics

It was mentioned in last week's paper that UPSR will continue with the KSSR syllabus; therefore, next year is not the last year of the test.  The pressure to pass is great, but with a little practice, anybody can pass. And those who are willing to push themselves, an A is very achievable goal. My clinics included the myriad of this type of spectrum of student's skills.

All students made progress; however, some were knock your socks off excellent. The clinics stress vocabulary, simple present tense, present continuous, past tense, past continuous tense and future tense. Grammar skills like spelling, punctuation, irregular verbs, end marks and subject-verb agreement are emphasised during the sessions. Students are encouraged to write clearly, economically and grammatically correct sentences. They learn to master sentence variety: simple, compound and complex sentences. Students are inspired the whole nine yards to spice up their writing with similes, idioms and parables. 

 I wish all the students and teachers the best of luck on the 30th of September!
