Dear Parents
We are seeing an increase in level of difficulty of questions asked in our school and national math examinations year after year.
My question is this, if a teacher is still given the same amount of time to work with your child and yet is required to impart more skills set to meet the new demands, may I know how can a teacher do so when he/she is given the same amount of time every year?
Well, the answer is, the teacher will either …..
a. choose to cramp in more exercises in every lesson plan and deliver these lessons at a much faster pace, leaving the teacher with little or no time to clear the doubts of the slower group….. OR
b. choose to impart only the basic core concepts and teach at a pace whereby all students’ doubts will be clarified, compromising on exposing the students to those more challenging variations of question types
