Stimulus-Based Conversation Training

Stimulus-Based Conversation is one of the most challenging components in the PSLE examination. The girls are required to apply the following skills in the component: Justification, Making Connections, Elaboration and Counterarguments. 


The girls will be asked three different types of questions in the oral examinations: 

1) Decision Making Questions: Pupils are required to make a decision and justify their decision fully. 




2) Experience Questions: Pupils are required to fully elaborate on their experience using five wives and one husband. Pupils are also encouraged to make suggestions and talk about what they have learnt from the experience. 

What
Who
Why
When
Whose
How





3) Opinion-Making Questions: Pupils are required to provide answers to a social issue. For instance, they could be asked if it is important to learn how to cook/drive or to list characteristics of a good school. 


To help the children deal with the answering of the questions in this component, I have introduced the model TREES to help them to fully elaborate on their ideas. 




To help them to excel in this component, I have arranged for ORAL POWER CLINIC SESSIONS to be held during recess for the children to receive one-to-one instruction and feedback on their oral skills.

Children can also meet me before morning assembly for their one-to-one feedback session on Mon-Tues, Thurs and Fri. I will be having morning remedial sessions on Wed. 

We will also be having additional practices in class to ensure readiness for the upcoming examinations. :)
