Module 1: Cycle

In this module, hand in hand with the use of p5 science exam papers, students will learn about the importance of reproduction in living things and be introduced to the process of reproduction in flowering plants and humans. They will also learn about the Water cycle and how water changes its states. In addition, this module will also discuss Singapore’s national taps and the importance of water conservation.

Module 2: Diversity

Module 2 is a review module to help students excel in their exams. Armed with sufficient practice with the use of p5 science test papers, this module will cover the topics and concepts that students have already learnt in Primary 3 and 4. This includes several practice lessons for both MCQ and open-ended sections. Students will be trained with top school exam papers.

Module 3: Energy and Interactions

This module serves as a revision for the topics on Energy and Interactions that are covered in the lower block science syllabus. Students will revise all the important concepts on Heat and Light energy, their importance and uses. They will also learn about the interaction and properties of magnets.

Module 4: Systems

Module 4 encompasses the bulk of p5 science topics where the children will be introduced to the Cell system. They will learn to recognize the differences between an animal and plant cell and identify and label the parts of cells and their functions. In this module, students will also be able to understand how human body systems work together to function effectively. This module includes in-depth content on the Human Respiratory and Circulatory systems. This module will also introduce students to the Plant transport system.

Module 5: Exam Consolidation

This module, with the effective use of p5 science exam papers, encompasses 3 exam components to train the students for MCQ practice, open-ended practice and higher-order thinking skills in a science exam. We conduct regular quizzes for MCQ revision to ensure that students have strong knowledge and understanding. The module will stimulate the thought process as they are exposed to a greater variety of HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) questions and they will be challenged to analyze, evaluate and apply scientific concepts that are much needed for PSLE.
