Kangaroo Study’s P6 PSLE Semester 1 course came to a meaningful close last week.

In this Semester 1 Recap, we invited Teacher Ma, our teacher-in-charge for the P6 PSLE programme, to share what he has observed this semester — the progress he has seen in class, some real student stories, and how we will be supporting our P6 students through the June Holiday Programme and the final PSLE sprint.

“The Progress I Witnessed This Semester”
Hi everyone, I’m Teacher Ma.

Our P6 PSLE Semester 1 course has now come to an end. Looking at the students' performance in the test during our final lesson, I can see that every student has shown progress and positive changes.
Here are a few real examples of students from my class.
Case 1: From P5 SA2 Mock AL6 to Full Marks in P6 WA1
The first student is Che*.
This girl didn't do well in the P5 SA2 Kangaroo mock exam last year; I remember her score was an AL6. At that time, I went through some of her exam mistakes with her individually and realized that her understanding was actually quite good. She could quickly apply the examples I gave to solve the questions. So, the issue back then was likely that she hadn't seen or learned those types of exam questions before.
Through last year's holiday program and our Semester 1 classes this year, we covered most of the knowledge points. Following this, she got full marks in her school's P6 WA1, which really amazed me. This success has given her a lot of confidence to challenge harder questions in subsequent exams. In fact, she can already solve most of the questions correctly during class now.

This also made me realize that even if a student doesn't do well in P5 Math, there is still hope to get full marks. What I hope to do next is to help more students who may not be scoring ideally at this stage, but who have the ability to understand and improve, slowly build the skills and confidence they need to work towards AL1.
Case 2: From Unstable Focus to Better Habits and Active Questioning
The second student is Dar*.
This boy sometimes comes up with solutions that no one else in the class has thought of — and his ideas are correct. He has very good thinking potential. However, his results in the past were not very ideal, partly because it's very hard for him to concentrate. Most of the time, I need to remind him to listen and pay attention in class. Yet I also understand, for many primary school students, staying fully focused for two hours is not easy.
But there is one thing about this child that I really appreciate, and that is his optimism. No matter how long I keep him back after class, his attitude is always very positive, and he genuinely wants to become better. As a result, this attitude started to show in his learning habits. In the beginning, he would sometimes forget to bring his homework. Now, he is able to submit it on time. His handwriting has also improved from messy to much neater and clearer. During lessons, he now tries his best to stay focused. When he does not understand a question, he will also take the initiative to message me online and ask for help. I believe he will definitely make great progress in math later on.

Students’ Progress and Parents’ Encouragement
Other than these 2 students, I have also seen the progress of many other students: some have improved from P5 SA2 AL4 to their current WA AL1, and there are also students getting full marks, which makes me very happy.
Moreover, many students have developed great study habits and attitudes; they will message me directly via WhatsApp whenever they have questions. Seeing them go from hating math to liking math gives me the greatest sense of achievement.
This semester, I also received many encouraging comments from parents. I am very grateful for the trust and support from all our parents.


The Next Step|P6 June Holiday & PSLE Final Sprint Plan
The upcoming June Holiday will be a very important period for P6 students.
In Kangaroo Study’s June Holiday Programme, we will cover the key and difficult topics tested in PSLE Paper 2 and Prelim Paper 2 by modules. These questions are undoubtedly very challenging for the current P6 students. But if they can master all of them, they should no longer fear any difficult questions.
Starting from July, we will sprint towards the difficult questions of PSLE and Prelims. The most unique, strange, and challenging questions will be selected and put into Semester 2, allowing students to handle them with ease. To prepare for the actual exams, we have also planned four mock exams to gradually train the students' exam techniques and to identify and fill any learning gaps.
In the final month, individual Q & A sessions will also be arranged so that every current student can enter the exam hall with no lingering doubts.
In the final month before PSLE, we will also arrange individual Q & A sessions, so that every enrolled student can clarify their doubts and enter the exam hall with a steadier and more confident mindset.

In Conclusion
At Kangaroo Study, we believe that preparing for PSLE Math is not just about doing more questions. More importantly, it is about helping students understand what the question is really asking, choose the right method, build good habits, and develop the confidence to stay calm and think clearly under exam pressure.
As we enter the final stage of PSLE preparation, we will continue to support our P6 students step by step — helping them move forward with clearer direction, stronger skills, and greater confidence.
