P2 SOCIAL STUDIES New Assessment Format Pupils will receive a Task Card at the beginning of each semester. They are to use a A4 size paper or foolscap paper for each task and write the task number clearly on the top right hand corner. Pupils are required to complete at least one task for each reader. They are encouraged to complete all the tasks as there will be a higher chance to attain a A grade at the end of the semester. Pupils can complete the tasks at home.
P2 SOCIAL STUDIES New Assessment Format Pupils are to begin completing the specific tasks after each big book has been read in class. This will help them to understand the Social Studies concepts better and apply them in their work. Stars will be accumulated for every task completed and finally converted to a grade for Semester 1 & 2. Pupils have been informed to buy a black clear file (with 20 pockets) to keep their completed tasks. If you would like your child to purchase the file from the school bookshop, do get him/her to inform the Form Teacher as an order needs to be placed. Please support your child in completing the task however, ensure that the task is mainly completed by him/her.
