~ ADDING ANOTHER 5 - 10 MARKS ~
Remember these few pointers & you'll EASILY score another EXTRA 5 - 10 marks or more.
1) You are sitting for a SCIENCE PAPER NOT an English Comprehension paper!
After answering the basic question, you have to follow-up with the SCIENCE CONCEPT.
SCIENCE PAPER is testing you on the SCIENCE CONCEPTS!
NO SCIENCE CONCEPTS = NO MARKS!
E.g.
Describe...
Explain why...
Suggest a reason why...
Explain how...
Give a reason for your answer...
Explain your answer....
etc.
You NEED to put in your keywords / key concepts of the topic for all the above type of questions!
2) You need to know that QUESTIONS CAN ALWAYS CHANGE....
BUT....
SCIENCE CONCEPT DOES NOT CHANGE!
The ANSWER will definitely be something which you've LEARNT BEFORE / WRITTEN BEFORE !
Use your R.I.P to identify the Chapter --> Topic --> Science Concept being tested
...and you'll know your ANSWER!
3) Remember that a question may have 2 or 3 parts: 41a, 41b, 41c
DO NOT SOLVE THEM SEPARATELY!
They are 95% of the time INTER-RELATED!
ALL from either SAME CHAPTER / SAME TOPIC / SAME CONCEPT or continuation of the previous part!
4) BE SPECIFIC !!!!!!!
Water inside the basin / Water inside the beaker....
Water level of the beaker / Water level in the basin)
Surrounding air in the flask / surrounding air outside the flask
When your water / water level / air / etc. IS UNCLEAR, EXAMINER HAS TO GUESS WHICH water level / air /water you're referring to.....it's a STRAIGHT ZERO.
5) LASTLY, Use the TERMS provided IN THE QUESTION!
STOP USING YOUR OWN HORRIBLE ENGLISH WORDS !!!
HIGHLIGHT / UNDERLINE / CIRCLE !!!
WHEN THE ABOVE ARE DONE RIGHT, YOU CAN EASILY GET BACK ALL YOUR MARKS!
A* for the TOP 10!!!
85 and above for most of you !!!
....75 and above for some of you!!!
!!! EASILY !!!

~ SCIENCE NOTES ~
SCIENCE ANSWERS / KNOWLEDGE which you should know:
1) Flower X did not bear fruit because it does not have stigma thus it cannot receive the pollen grains, resulting in the egg cell not being fertilised.
2) The xylem / water-carryign tubes is damaged thus water could not be transported to the leaves,....*CONTINUE EXPLAINING*.... the leave in the branch could not photosynthesise to make food and died.
3) They concluded that the greater their masses, the faster their hear rates while runing.
4) Explain how a faster heart rate helps to provide a greater amount of energy:
The heart beats faster to pump more oxygenated blood around the body so that respiration can take place faster.
5) Give a reason why Lucas kept Plant A in the cupboard before the start of his experiment:
He wanted to remove the starch that is present in the leaves.
6) Sponge has many holes which are filled with air.
When a sponge is put into a basin of water and pressed, air will escape and bubbles (gas) will be seen coming out of the sponge.
Water level in the basin will decrease as the water occupies the spaces in the sponge.
7) Please be CLEAR when you describe the process of condensation!!!
Is it the cooler INNER / OUTER SURFACE!!!
If it's a car / glass / window / plastic sheet where the dew is formed.....Is it the surrounding air INSIDE or OUTSIDE...
BE SPECIFIC!
8) The surface of the window is at the same temperature as the surroundings, *CONTINUE EXPLAINING...DON'T STOP* so no condensation occurs.
9) There are more turns of coils around steel bar B so it has stronger magnetic force / stronger magnetism.
10) Creates a close circuit so that electricity can flow. The steel bar becomes magnetised and becomes an electromagnet which attracts the iron bar.
11) Having cuts across the fish body increases the EXPOSED surface area for the fish to gain heat faster.
12) Such a behaviour allows the lizard to reduce its surface area of CONTACT with the hot desert sun, *CONTINNUE SCIENCE CONCEPT*...hence, it will gain less heat.
13) When the water in the bucket exceeds the level 'h', more water flows out of the hose at a time.
As the mass of the water flowing out increases, its gravitational potential energy increases to convert to more kinetic energy of the water wheel for it to turn faster.
As the water wheel turns faster, it possesses more kinetic energy which in turn, is convereted to more electrical energy in the generator. As the electrical energy supplied to the bell increase, it rings faster.

SLEEP EARLY TODAY.
BRING MATHEMATICAL SET & CALCULATOR!!!
PSLE 3-ROUNDS of CHECK tomorrow:
1st TIME: Start from Page 1, flip every single page & check ONLY FINAL ANSWER (Units/ Decimal place / Conversion)
2nd TIME: Start from Page 1 again, but now check all the simple questions and make sure there is no calculation or misunderstanding of what they are asking for.
3rd TIME: Start from Page 1 again, and attempt the questions which you're unsure again. Read again and see if your working makes sense.

~ Math: Circles~
It's ok if you can't get the answer, because it was set out of syllabus.
BUT, it is good if you can draw lines on Figure A and be able to see that the shaded parts in Fig.A form 2 CIRCLES.
