First, read the questions carefully and underline keywords.

Second, when doing your work, REFERENCE your equations.

Third, in paper 2, use your calculator to key in your equations carefully.

Forth, if there is a diagram, ANNOTATE IT.

Fifth, use different methods to solve questions and make sure you get the same answer.

Last but not least, CHECK YOUR WORK.

always check your work after you finish the paper

when doing speed questions, always draw a diagram

when doing area and perimeter questions, highlight the diagram

remember formulas(area of circles e.g.)

# data[].attributes.body
laaibah:D

1.for area and perimeter, highlight AND annotate the diagram to understand better on how to do the question

2.check work carefully‼️

3.underline the KEYWORDS

4.remember formulas(e.g.area of triangle,area of circles)

5.REDUCE transfer errors

# data[].attributes.body
good practices:

-when done with the paper, ⚠️check your work⚠️ for various errors (wrong calculation, misunderstood information, missing units, etc.) and once you’ve checked once, ‼️check again‼️ just in case you’ve missed out anything

-if you don’t know how to do a question, skip it temporarily and go to the other questions. dont waste your brain power. after you’re done with the rest of the questions, you can go back to that question you don’t know how to do and try it againn

how to avoid careless mistakes from someone who always makes them :D

1. check ur work🚽 [this is to ensure you don’t make careless mistakes or you might get everything wrong cuz if you get the answer wrong for paper 2 你会扣很多分

2. highlight 🖍️ ur work so you can see clearly if your blind like me🤩

3. do math 6️⃣7️⃣

🤍 Math notes

-area n perimeter

Try colour coding the diagram so that u r more clear on wat to do( colour code in pens if u r not allowed to use highlighters)

-money

Remember to have two decimal places in ur ans

-for all topics

Remember to write units and identify wat type of question before doing it

Check ur ans too hehe💕

# data[].attributes.body
-read the question carefully

-ensure units are same before calculating

-check if numbers are keyed in to the calculator correctly

-ensure the answer has the correct unit

-if you are rounding, write the correct equal sign before you calculate, or else you might forget

-when calculating area/perimeter of anything less then a circle, write the fraction of the circle that you are calculating before the formula

-be clear what you are finding and which formula to use. Don’t get mixed up with 2 pie r and pie r square!

# data[].attributes.body
I have to highlight or underline the key words and phrases in the question and make sure to be more careful in my workings, making sure that my answer is reasonable before moving on.

I would also annotate in the diagram (if any).I would also have to be more careful when transferring my numbers, reducing transfer error.

I have to remember to put in units ( if needed).

# data[].attributes.body
STUFF

that I should check

1.After writing down my answer,I should first check that I have written the appropriate units

2.When checking after finishing the paper,I should first check that I have completed every question

3.If I have time,I can check that my answers are reasonable and work backward to check if I have the right answer.I can also check that I have answered the question(for example finding the area when the question asked for perimeter)

Jessica Phua:

Good practises in math paper

Remember to write units at the correct places

Check for transference errors

Have legible handwriting

Check for carelessness

Re-read the question during checking to prevent accidentally losing marks for an undone question

Do not spend too much time on a question

If I am unsure about how to do the specific question, I will circle it and move on

Ensure there are no errors in shading of OAS questions

Underline and circle the keywords in question

Annotate and label work

Draw and label diagrams

# data[].attributes.body
We should always check our work for things like units. We should also check back to make sure we have answered the question and whether our answer is accurate when we work it out backwards. When we are solving questions on angles, we should make sure to reference the angles. If it is on topics like area, perimeter or speed, we can remind ourselves to use the right formula by writing it down at the side of the worksheet. For perimeter, although we cannot highlight our answers, we can still highlight and outline the diagram if provided to make sure we did not miss out any figures. For paper 1, especially for the computation questions, we should write our workings down instead of doing them mentally as it may be prone to making mistakes.

gd luck to everyone, stay healthy and positive

Reflection on good practices in Math

Analysing questions:

1. Read the question

-highlight/underline the keywords

-annotate the questions

2. Identify the topic being tested

-identify the topic relevant to the question ( e.g. percentage, ratio, etc. )

3. Identify the relevant heuristic

-identify the relevant heuristic ( e.g. model drawing, unitary method, drawing a table, etc. )

4. Execute your steps

-write out your workings and equations

5. Check your work

-use methods such as working backwards/ re-doing the whole question to check your work

1. Always remember to put units in the answer when required.

2. Memorise the different formulas (example: area of the circle is pi x r x r)

3. Annotate the diagram when doing angles questions so that your working is clear.

4. Use short statements so as to easily check your work.

5. Check each equation and key in the calculations in your calculator to avoid errors.

6. Read the question carefully and be sure of what the question asks for.

7. When completing angles questions, refer to the angle you are finding at the start of every equation.

8. Ensure your answers are logical and make sense.

9. When asking to round, always use the approximate equal sign.

10. Put your answer back into the question to check if your answer is correct.

I can work backwards after getting my answer to see if it fits the information in the question above. I can also reread the question to ensure that I have wrote the correct units required in my answer below. After solving for my answer, I can reread my workings and make sure that I have not made any transfer or calculation errors.

# data[].attributes.body
Check for units, calculation, and whether you have transferred the numbers from the question correctly. Remember to underline keywords in the question.

# data[].attributes.body
Read the question carefully

Write reference

Check for units after writing final answer

1. Underline keywords in the question so you don’t miss out on important stuff

2. When there is a diagram, annotate it

3. Reference angles and label them on the diagram

4. Check all workings after completing the question by working backwards to see if the numbers fit in the question

5. Check to make sure there are units

6. For circles, put the formula first before finding area or perimeter

# data[].attributes.body
Check your work by doing the questions backwards

Check if u have transferred the right numbers from the questions

Make sure you put the right decimal places

If u don’t know the answer do guess and check they accept that

Skip the question if u have stayed there for more than 5 minutes and have no idea how to do it

Make sure to write neatly and try and use other ways to solve a question if u don’t know how to

Estimate how much marks you can lose to increase chance of getting the al you want

Read the questions a few times slowly. Scrutinise the words if you are a careless person

Check for errors even if you feel like sleeping

Use every single second of the exam

Try to maintain top notch focus

Try your best and use strategies you’ve been taught

Pray for easy questions

Don’t be too stress

# data[].attributes.body
When checking your work, check for:

1. Units. Is your units in the correct unit? Do you have units?

2. Mathematical statement. When rounding, check for the wavy equal sign. Also check that your working is correct.

3. Where you wrote your equations. In PSLE, you cannot write in the margins. Check whether everything you wrote is both were it can be seen and neat and tidy. The teachers marking your paper will be much happier. Also refrain from writing and/or drawing anything that is not needed on your answer booklet.

4. Transfer error. Check the question and make sure you have written the correct numbers.

5. Shading. Check that you have shaded in the answer, that you have shaded the correct bubble and check that the bubble you shaded is in the correct question.

Zhuo Na:

1. Always read and understand the question, underline or highlight information if you need to.

2. Try to memorise answer techniques and apply it, such as speed= Distance divide time and etc.

3. Try to be more active and DO more worksheets, studies show that students who do more worksheets and apply their techniques actively are more likely to do well compared to students who only read and memorise their notes passively.

4. Always understand the meanings of words or phrases you don’t know, and try your best.

5. Tell yourself that everything is in the syllabus and if someone can do it, you can too.

# data[].attributes.body
1. After finishing paper 1, check if all units are present so as to ensure that no unnecessary marks are lost.

2. Always remember to check through the paper after completing it.

3. Ensure that all MCQs are shaded correctly.

4. Redo the questions when checking.

5. Use different methods to check the paper.

# data[].attributes.body
For perimeter questions, highlight the perimeter of the figure. Underline keywords. Put units when needed. When solving angle questions, reference the angles.

1. I can check my work after completing 🦶

Like doing the questions again and reading the questions again (3 times) to make sure I have not missed out anything.

2. I can underline the key words of the questions.

3. Press the calculator 2 times to ensure I have not pressed the keys wrongly 👍🏻

4. Revise by doing papers( sadly )

5. I edited it 🌈ok the end

1.When doing perimeter questions, always outline or highlight the lines to make sure that all the lines have been counted

2.When doing circles, write down the equations eg pi x r x r

3.always check the answers to make sure that it adds up to all the information stated in the question, units, transfer

4.check all equations written down

this way, i can ensure my answer is correct

1. Ensure that the formula used is correct and make sure that there are no computation errors.

2. Read the question again and make sure that you write the correct units and do the correct conversions

3. On graph questions, check that the units entered us accurate. Try using a ruler to measure.

4. For angles questions, add referencing. Without referencing you will 得到鸡蛋.（领分）

5. When reading the question, underline key words and units.

Understand questions, read carefully, write carefully and accurately, check 10 times so can reduce careless mistakes and calculate working again. Look through questions 3 times before answering so will not miss out important information. When done with paper, by checking, make sure you treat the question like a whole new one, as if you have never seen this question. Or pretend you’re a teacher, marking someone’s work.

# data[].attributes.body
Actually check answer and not check if you at least put in an answer especially for the harder questions

# data[].attributes.body
Put units

# data[].attributes.body
Recheck the whole paper and identify what topic it is testing on

Then, try to solve the question while taking note of the numbers in them to avoid careless mistakes

If it is area and perimeter, it is better to highlight the diagram
