Year 6 Courses

Each question in the main textbook is clearly explained in the accompanying video lessons. These videos provide step-by-step guidance on how to approach and solve each problem, ensuring that students receive thorough and understandable instructions. By presenting the material in this clear and detailed manner, the lessons help to reinforce understanding and facilitate deeper comprehension of the textbook content. This approach allows students to follow along with explicit explanations, ask questions, and engage with the material more effectively, enhancing their overall learning experience.

The S.O.Q. (Special Online Quiz) consists of quizzes designed to test students’ understanding of recent modules in English, mathematics, and thinking skills. Engaging actively with these quizzes is vital, as it provides immediate feedback and highlights areas for improvement. This process helps reinforce learning, track progress, and keep students motivated by ensuring they effectively consolidate their knowledge and prepare for future challenges.

Cyberschool offers a weekly vocabulary test throughout the term to help students strengthen their language skills. These tests assess and reinforce understanding of new vocabulary, allowing students to track progress, identify improvement areas, and expand their word knowledge effectively. Regular participation supports continuous vocabulary development and enhances overall communication skills.

For more practice on mathematical reasoning and thinking skills, WEMT students attempt extra 5 maths and 5 thinking skills questions every week until the end of the term. Go to ‘My Test’ menu at the navigation bar and go to ‘Online Test’ page. Click on the ‘MR&TS Homework’ tab.

Supplementary Maths (S-Maths) offers an additional resource for students to enhance their maths study at home. Each S-Maths module aligns with the topics covered in the corresponding WEMT maths module, providing targeted practice and reinforcement. Students are encouraged to complete the weekly S-Maths questions and submit them by the end of the next school holiday. The S-Maths homework serves as a valuable tool for deepening their grasp of mathematical concepts and achieving academic success.

In the Year 5 WEMT course, students are encouraged to improve their writing and editing skills by applying feedback from their initial exercises.

After submitting their revised work, students receive additional feedback to support ongoing refinement and progress.

Students enrolled in the WEMT course have the valuable opportunity to attend supplementary live Zoom sessions throughout the week until Week 10 of the term. These sessions are designed to provide further support and interaction beyond the regular coursework, offering a platform for students to engage in live discussions, ask questions, and receive additional guidance. To fully benefit from these sessions, students must be self-guided and motivated. Active participation and preparation are crucial for making the most of this resource. By taking the initiative to attend these sessions and applying the insights gained, students can deepen their understanding, clarify any doubts, and enhance their overall learning experience.

Students take the Term Progress Test during Week 7 of the term to check their learning progress before the end-of-term assessment. English, Maths, and Thinking Skills tests are taken in class.

Parents will receive the Term Progress Test report showing their child’s scores and rank (excluding Writing), along with information about their levels of achievement across specific competencies.
