Analisis umum

Pada keseluruhannya, kertas Bahasa Melayu Pemahaman

2009 tidak berubah dari segi format umum. Cuma, ada beberapa

perubahan yang agak ketara dari aspek pilihan jawapan. Jika k ita teliti,

pilihan jawapan pada tahun ini telah diseragamkan kepada empat

pilihan jawapan iaitu A, B, C dan D. Hal ini adalah sama seperti tahun2008. Begitu juga jika ditinjau dari aspek pilihan jawapan bagi soalan

aneka pilihan, pada tahun 2008 kita dapati pilihan jawapan yang

hanya terdiri daripada dua pilihan jawapan, telah diubah kepada lebih

daripada dua pilihan jawapan. Walau bagaimanapun, tiada jawapan

yang semuanya betul.

Contoh 1:

Soalan 22Pilih ayat-ayat menggunakan perkataan bergaris dengan betul.

22 I Cuaca hari in i cerah hi ngga pe tang.

II Cermin tingkap itu menjadi cerah setelah dicuci oleh

kakak. III Kulitnya kelihatan cerah selepas pulang dari luar negara.

IV Sungai Langat dikunjungi orang ramai kerana airnya cerah.

A I dan IIsahaja C I , I I dan III sahaja

B I dan IVsahaja D II , I II dan IV sahaja

Aras kesukaran

Aras kesukaran soalan-soalan yang dikemukakan pada tahun

2009 ini boleh dikategorikan sebagai sederhana. Berdasarkan maklum

balas yang dikumpulkan daripada calon-calon UPSR yang telah

menduduki kertas ini, k ita dapati kebanyakan mereka menyatakan

soalan-soalan adalah sederhana walaupun terdapat beberapa soalanmengelirukan.

Seterusnya, bagi bahagian Pemahaman (Membaca dan

Memahami) pula, dua buah petikan yang dikemukakan agak panjang

jika dibandingkan dengan petikan pada tahun 2008. Setiap petikan

mengandung antara 120 hingga 150 patah perkataan. Petikanpertama berbentuk rencana tentang Pelancaran Tahun Melawat

Malaysia 2007. Petikan kedua pula berbentuk syarahan tentang

Kebersihan Sekolah Tanggungjawab Bersama.Soalan-soalan yang

mengikuti kedua-dua petikan pula tidak terlalu sukar dan jawapan

mudah dikesan dalam petikan. Namun demikian, calon perlu lebih

teliti ketika membaca petikan dan ketika menjawab soalan-soalan

yang mengikutinya.

(A) Bahagian Kemahiran Berbahasa (Tatabahasa)

Soalan 1 - 19

Pada tahun 2009, Soalan 1hingga Soalan 19memerlukan

calon mengisi tempat kosong dengan jawapan yang paling sesuai.

Bagi bahagian ini, beberapa soalan tidak dikemukakan, iaitu Kata

Nama, Kata Nafi, Kata Penegas dan Kata Pemeri. Sebaliknya soalan-

soalan tentang Kata Kerja, Kata Adjektif, Kata Ganda dan Kata Majmuk

lebih banyak dikemukakan.

Jika diteliti, pilihan jawapan yang diberikan untuk soalan-

soalan seperti Kata Kerja dan Kata Adjektif adalah hampir-hampirsama maknanya. Kemungkinan sekiranya calon kurang teliti atau

kurang menguasai kosa kata Bahasa Melayu menghadapi kesukaran

menjawab soalan ini.

Contoh:(Soalan 4 - Kata Kerja)

4 Keluarga saya telah ______ di kampung ini sejak lima tahun

yanglalu.

A bermastautin C bernaung

B berzi arah D bertu kar

Jawapan paling tepat untuk soalan ini ialah A (bermastautin)kerana kata ini bermaksud menetap atau tinggal di sesuatu tempat.

Kata berziarah bermaksud melawat atau mengunjungi, bernaung pula

bermaksud berlindung, sementara bertukar kurang sesuai kerana kata

sendi selepasnya ialah di, bukannya ke.

BAHASA MELAYU

(PEMAHAMAN)

Analisis Bahasa Melayu PemahamanSoalan 20 dan 21

Soalan berkaitan Kata Seerti dan Kata Berlawan yang

dikemukakan juga tidak terlalu sukar. Bagi kedua-dua soalan ini, murid

perlu menguasai kosa kata bahasa Melayu dengan baik. Bagi soalan

21misalnya, Kata Seerti bagi mengekalkan ialah B (memelihara) dan

bagi soalan 20, Kata Berlawan bagi berseri ialah A (muram).Soalan 22 dan 23

Soalan ini menguji murid tentang penggunaan Kata Banyak

Makna. Kata yang diuji ialah kata cerah dan sumbang. Di sini,

murid perlu mengetahui makna kata uzur dan mencungkil, selain

mengetahui perbezaan makna perkataan tersebut apabila digunakan

dalam konteks ayatyang berlainan.Soalan 24 dan 25

Soalan 24memerlukan murid memilih jawapan yang palingsesuai bagi ayat tanya yang diberikan. Sementara itu, soalan 25pula

memerlukan murid memilih soalan atau ayat tanya yang sesuai untuk

ayat yang diberikan.

Soalan 26 dan 27

Di sini pula, murid dikehendaki untuk memilih ayat yang sama

maksud dengan ayatyang diberikan. Bagi soalan 26, murid perlu

menukarkan AyatPasif kepada Ayat Aktif yang mempunyai maksud

yang sama. Dalam Soalan 27pula, murid perlu mencari Ayat Pindah

yang sama maksud dengan AyatAjuk yang diberikan.Soalan 28 - 30

Dalam Soalan 28, murid perlu memilih satu sahaja ayatyang

betul, iaitu ayat yang tidak terdapat sebarang kesalahan tatabahasa.

Soalan 29pula menguji murid tentang penggunaan Kata Majmuk

seperti Safuan Restoran, pengasah pensel, tembikar pasu dan rumah

contoh.Kata majmuk yang betul ialah pengasah pensel dan rumah

contoh,maka jawapannya ialah D (III dan IV).

Contoh: (Soalan 29 - Ayat-ayat yang betul)

29 I Malam tadi kami makan di Safuan Restoran.

II Didalam beg itu terdapat pengasah pensel.

III Adik mengeluarkan tembikar pasu dari almari itu. IV Cantik sungguh rumah contoh di tepi jalan itu. A I d an II C I I d an I V

B I d an II I D I II d an I V

(B) Bahagian Membaca dan Memahami

Soalan 31 - 35(Petikan 1)

Petikan yang dikemukakan berbentuk rencana. Petikan ini

menerangkan tentang Pelancaran Tahun Melawat Malaysia (TMM)

2007 oleh Perdana Menteri di Taman Tasik Titiwangsa.

Soalan 31, 32 dan 33agak mudah dan murid boleh

memperoleh jawapan terus di dalam petikan. Soalan 34pula

memerlukan murid memahami keseluruhan petikan dan memilihmaklumat tidak benar berdasarkan petikan. Soalan 35pula

memerlukan murid mencari maksud rangkai kata yang terdapat

dalam petikan.

Soalan 36 - 40 (Petikan 2)

Petikan ini berupa sebuah syarahan yang bertajuk Kebersihan

Sekolah Tanggungjawab Bersama.Petikan ini menerangkan tentang

peranan dan tanggungjawab . Soalan-soalan yang mengikuti petikan

ini juga mudah untuk dijawab. Soalan 36, 37dan 38, jawapannyaboleh diperoleh dalam petikan. Soalan 39memerlukan murid

memilih tujuan utama murid-murid dilibatkan dalam penjagaan

kebersihan di sekolah berdasarkan petikan. Sementara soalan 40

sekali lagi menguji kosa kata murid juga.

Kesimpulan:

Berdasarkan analisis yang dibuat, dapatlah kita rumuskan

bahawa soalan Bahasa Melayu Pemahaman 2009, memerlukan

calon lebih bersedia menguasai kosa kata yang pelbagai dan

tidak semestinya hanya yang tersenarai dalam Sukatan Pelajaran

Bahasa Melayu Tahun 6 sahaja. Sebaliknya, murid perlu menambah

kemahiran kosa kata dengan lebih banyak membaca akhbar, majalah

atau buku-buku.

Panjang jawapan kamu hendaklah tidak lebih daripada 50 patah

Pada suatu petang ketika Sang Kancil berehat di sepohon pokok,

tiba-tiba Sang Monyet datang. Sang Monyet bercerita kepada Sang

Kancil yang dia sangat lapar kerana sudah tiga hari dia tidak makan.

Sang Kancil menyuruh Sang Monyet mencari buah-buahan di dusun

berhampiran pondoknya. Sang Monyet terus pergidan mencari buah-

buahan di dusun itu namun tidak ada. Sang Monyet tidak berputusasa dan terus mencari buah-buah untuk dimakan.

Sang Kancil kasihan melihat Sang Monyet yang masih tidak

jumpa buah-buahan untuk dimakan. Sang Kancil pun menyuruh Sang

Monyet pergi ke seberang sungai dan mengambil buah-buahan yang

terdapat di situ kecuali buah lada yang berwarna merah. Beberapa kali

Sang Kancil mengingatkan Sang Monyet agar tidak mengambil buah

lada.

Sampai di sana Sang Monyet jadi rambang mata dan semua buah

hendak dimakan. Sang Monyet makan dengan gelojohnya. Selesai

makan, Sang Monyet mencari lagi buah yang boleh dimakan danterpandang buah lada. Sang Monyet tertarik dengan warna buah ladayang merah itu. Sang Monyet terus memakan buah lada itu dengan

gelojohnya. Akhirnya Sang Monyet menjerit kepedasan dan lari

lintang-pukang menuju ke sungai.

(Paper 1)

By P. Rangit SinghReview of English Paper

BAHASA INGGERIS

(Paper 1)

By P. Rangit Singh

The 2009 English UPSR paper was basically at par with the

standard of the pupils. There were questions at all levels of difficulty.Thus, this has helped pupils with average competency to get good

results. Unlike the 2008 paper, Paper 1 wasnt divided into sections.The questions were divided according to numbers.

Questions 1 - 4were mainly on adverb, clothes, verb and homesof animals. The questions were direct and pupils should be able to

answer them correctly.

Questions 5 - 7were on planting tomatoes in flower pots. Most

pupils answered these questions correctly.Various situations were given in questions 8 to 10. The questions

were rather direct and pupils shouldnt have any problem answeringthem.

Questions 11 - 15were on everyday situations that happened

around the pupils. The functions that were tested wereto expressgratitude, to offer assistance,to decline and to inform. They should be

able to answer all these questions easily.Questions 16 - 20 were mostly on grammar items. Pupils were

assessed on articles, verb to be, preposition conjunctions, subject andverb agreement. Question 21tested pupils on antonyms. Questions

22 and 23which tested pupils on spelling were on insects and indoorgames. Although the words weresimple and easy, pupils need to be

cautious when selecting the correct answer as they need to select t heoption that has the correct spelling. Questions 24and 25wereon

punctuation. The questions tested pupils on the use of exclamationmark and question mark.

The clozepassage (questions 26 - 30) was about an incidentat an orchard. The questions tested the pupils grammar skills and

vocabulary. The questions were on noun (place, parts of body, andparts of a tree) verb, and subject and verb agreement.

Questions 31 - 40tested the pupils reading and comprehensionskills. Pupils were given two passages, a linear and a non-linear. The

linear passage (questions 36 - 40) was on a non-formal letter whilethe non-linear (questions 31 - 35) was on the process of making avase using clay.

Pupils were tested on avariety of reading skills; specificinformation, predicting outcomes, cause and effect relationships,drawing conclusions, inference and also vocabulary. Overall, Paper

1 was not too difficult although there were a few questions thatrequire pupils to think carefully. The questions were a mixture of easy,

moderate and difficult. Most pupils had no problem in answering thequestions in this paper.

In Paper 2,pupils were tested based on three questions insections A, B and C. In Section A, pupils were tested on their ability

to construct sentences with the helping words given based on thepicture. The situation given was painting a mural on the wall.

The sentences should be based on what the people in picture aredoing. Pupils were required towrite sentences about the situation in

the picture. They must not make any assumption but write what theysee in the given picture. Some pupils couldnt identify the activity that

was going on. Using the exact words to describe the activities wouldbe an advantage.

In Section B, pupils needed to choose the toythat they want tobuy as a birthday present: the singing doll, the talking dictionary orthe dancing elephant.With the information, pupils were required to

fill in the grids in part (A). Then they haveto write a short paragraphon why they chose the particular present. Pupils should choose the

item that theyre familiar with as this will help them to write moreinformation. They must also minimise the grammar errors to score

higher marks. The information given in the question was not in thesame sequence as the grid. Pupils haveto be very careful when

transferring the information into the grid in part (B).In Section C,pupils were tested on their ability to write creatively.

Pupils were given three pictures with helping words about helpingmother to earn additional income. Pupils need to be careful while

writing the answer. They need to describe the process correctly in theform of a story. Pupils need to read the words and make sure what

they should write. This will help pupils add relevant details to the

story. Pupils need not use all the words given. They were given morefreedom to write creatively using words they feel appropriate and

correct based on the pictures. As always, pupils needed to be carefulof the spelling, punctuation, grammar and also their writing.

The questions in Paper 2 were moderate in difficulty and pupilswere able to answer all the questions. Pupils with a good command of

English were able to answer the questions correctly and scored higher

marks.Overall, all the questions in both the papers were tothe level of the

pupils. Most of them were able to answer all the questions. The newformat helped pupils to get better marks and with that the number of

This week, we will discuss the format and type of Mathematics

Paper 1 in UPSR 2009. Before that, a bouquet of roses to those

excellent students who got A for Mathematics in the UPSR 2009.

In my view, the distribution of this years questions are not that

much different from previous questions. There are easy questions and

also challenging question. Anyway, ibelie ve well prepared candidates

can answer any type of questions.

As in the past, there were 40 questions with 4 tables and 19

diagrams in Paper 1. At the beginning, the easy questions tested the

candidates knowledge (10%) followed by the direct que stions which

included calculating (45%); and the high level questions; problem

solving, mixed operations, diagram, tables and graph (45%).

These type of questions require candidates to do more than

one operation or skills to get the exact answer. The candidates not

only need to memorise the formula, but more importantly should

understand the given information and the needs of the questions.

The table shows the distribution of topics and its analysis:

Total 40

Based on the analysis of UPSR 2009 questions, it is found that

there is a certain pattern or topics that are frequently asked in the

examination, namely:

(a) Two and three-dimensional

(b) Fraction

(c) Whole numbers

(d) Mass

To follow this discussion, candidates have to refer to the UPSR

2009 Mathematics Paper 1.

Knowledge Question

Question number 1, 2, 3 and 6 are knowledge questions. This

question can be regarded as a bonus for candidates as it require basic

mathematics skill.

For example, in question number 3, candidates need only to round

off the money given to the nearest ringgit. Similarly in question 2,

candidates need only to indicate the value of digit 8 on the card in the

place value of ten thousands.

For question 6, candidates only have to identify the shapes of X

and Y based on characteristics shown in the table.

Direct Question

There were 18 direct questions in UPSR 2009, numbered 4, 5, 7, 8,

9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 31 and 40.

Actually this type of question is easy because they are mechanical

question. Even though it has a diagram, it is easy to understand. So

the clever candidates can use mental arithmetic skill to correctly

answer the question. Although this question looks easy, candidates

have to be reminded to solve the four operations (addition,

subtraction, multiplication and division) and make sure the place of

value is placed in the correct place.

For example, in question 4, candidates have to find Ravis birth

date. Question number 5 is about mass topic. Candidates have to find

the total mass of two papayas, each with the same mass as the papaya

in Diagram 4. For this question the candidates must know the mass

shown in the diagram.

Questions 8, 9, 12, and 15 is about calculating the fraction using

addition, subtraction and mixed operation. Questions 11, 13 and 14

are about mixed operation (multiplication, subtraction, addition and

bracket).

To answer these questions, candidates must know BODMAS so as

not to make mistakes. For questions 10, 13 and 17, the skill of finding

out the decimal is tested upon. For these questions, candidates must

be able to put the decimal point in its proper place.

Problem Solving Question

Beside that, there are 18 questions on problem solving in the UPSR

2009, which are 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36,

37, 38 and 39

Normally this type of question require candidates to solve it by

using more than two operations. Candidates need to expertly identify

the connection and pattern tested in the question. When answering

this question, candidates should solve the question in order by using

some information given in the question. Candidates must be able

to read diagram, table, bill, bar chart, pictograph and pie chart. They

also haveto identify the correct formula of calculation asked in thequestion.

The candidates also should be careful when answering questions

which include tables and the diagrams. Some critical and creative

thinking skills (CCTS) questions were put out.

Pupils should master and be able to answer problem solving

questions based on application and CCTS. This skill tests pupils

understanding of the mathematical words and sentences in the

questions.

Pupils should also master and be able to use the four operations

(+, -, , ) in all situations. For example, question 22 is about finding

the total badges Kelvin and Jeya have while question 32 is to calculate

the marbles left in the jar.

Please remember that the diagram, table, bill, bar chart,

pictograph and pie chart are part of the questions. So candidates

must be careful when reading questio ns on diagrams and attach the

information to the question given.

There was one question on data handling included in the diagram.

For example, question 35, in which the candidates haveto find out the

average number of books read by Kamal in a month over a period of

five months based on the pi ctograph given. Questions 33, 36, 37, 38 and 39 are on two and three-dimensional

topics. All the questions contain diagrams. For question 33, candidates

only need to identify the correct method to calculatet he area of the

coloured region.

Question 36 require candidates to calculate the perimeter of the

coloured region, whereas in question 37, they have to calculate the

total area of the coloured region. For question 38, candidates have

to calculate the coloured surface area of cuboid X and in question

39, they have to calculatethe height of cuboid T. In question 39,

candidates only need to identify t he diagram which has the same area

as triangle R.

Finally, I hope candidates for UPSR 2010 will find this analysis

useful. You may start your revision and exercise from now in order to

master all the topics learn i n Year 4 until Year 6.

Candidates must be able to:

i. read and understand mathematics sentence.

ii. choose the operations base on the sentence in the question.

iii. write the steps and answer clearly.

iv. check the answer - make sure each answer is complete.

3 marks questions (5 questions) involves the following skills:

i. Money - cost / convert unit RM-sen / buy-sale / profit and loss

ii. Mass/length and volume of liquid - difference of units

iii. Percentage / fractions - find one number with percentage

or fraction

iv. Average - involving three to five groups

v. Using diagram/table/picture and figure

Overall the UPSR 2009 were quite tough compared to before.

Candidate needs to read and understand the sentence which is

longer and carry more pictures, causing them to spend more time

on each question.

This week, pupils will be given some explanation about types,

pattern and method of UPSR 2009 Mathematics Paper 2. The

format of the question is still as in 2008, which consist of 20

questions. The questions are conducted in bilingual form (Bahasa

Inggeris and Bahasa Melayu). Candidates are required to answer in

one language only.

The pattern of this years question is quite different in which the

sentences are longer than before. There are more words to grasp

and understand. This will cause the candidates to spend more

time on most of the questions. For the year 2009, the distribution

of the marks, 1, 2 and 3 is also different compared to before.

The number of questions based on marks are,

a) 1 mark question - 6 questions

b) 2 marks question - 8 questions

c) 3 marks questions - 6 questions

Usually one question of each skill.

For the UPSR 2010, candidates should master the followingskills:

i . Place values and digit values

ii. Rounding off numbers

iii. Write the numbers in word or vice versa

iv. Create numbers from numerals.

The questions also involve;

i. Measurement (mass, length, volume of liqiud and time)

ii. Converting units - kg/g, km/m/cm/mm and l/ml

iii. Convert fractions to decimal or percentage

iv. Shape and space - naming the diagram/line of symmetry

One mark questions will test the skills involving the four

operations (+, -, , x). So pupils should master the skills and

be able to use it. They should also know how to read the

measurement (l/kg/km, calibration/scale). Pupils also need to

know how to relate the value of percentage, decimal and fraction

so that they would be able to do conversion of units.

Questions which carry2 and 3 marks are quite easy as the

sentences are not too long. Pictures and diagrams are also

provided to help them understand and answer the questions

correctly. The focus of the topics are still as in previous yearsquestions:

Fractions Decimals

Percentage Shapes, perimeter and area

Mixed operations Measurement

Most of these questions focus on graphs, diagrams or charts

without sentences. The questions are rather direct and easy to

understand.

Example:

6 .7 8 + 1 9. 5 =

It is important to pupils to show their working steps properly

and answer accurately.

Answer: 6.78

+ 1 9.50

OR

Example:

Example:

26.28

Pupils should also master their skills on conversion of units

especially when answering questions involving time, money,

measurement and percentage.

(a) Direct question

Example: Calculate 1.45 l 1 0 =

Give your answer, in ml.

Solution: 1.45 l x 1 0 00 = 1 450 ml

1. Generally, the structure and the type (construct) of UPSR Science Paper

2009for Section A was the same as the previous years question paper. It is

bilingual (English and Bahasa Melayu).

2. There are 18 questions based on pictures, diagrams or tables and two

multiple choice questions based on picture. Candidates can easily identify

the correct answer, but they can also get confused if they are not careful

and interpret the pictures wrongly.

3. Distribution of questions according to categories:

Type of questions Question number

8 Translation 6, 17

9 Extrapolation 8, 15, 20, 29

10 Application 4, 5, 21, 25

Questions 1 - 5 require students to recall the facts and sciencephenomena they have learnt and relate them to the questions. Questions

7 - 10 are interpretation questions (make conclusion from information),translation (transfer the data to another type), extrapolation (predict) and

application (the using of science in daily life) require students tomake

observation, inference and to relate the information from diagram, bar

chart, table, situation picture, experiment picture and information to

identify the most correct answer.

4. There are 24 multiple choice questions (choose either A, B, C or D)

and 6 multiple combination questions (choose through either A, B, C or Dbased on combination of four options).

For multiple combination questions, UPSR 2008 there are only two

combination answer for each choice answer. These actually, give the

students an easier choice.

5. Distribution of questions based on Year.

However the Ministry of Education hasaffirmed that questions for 2010 will continue to use both the languagesas in 2009. The most important aspect is for us to overcome the weaknessand to prepare the student to face UPSR 2010. They should understand allthe facts, terms and the principles of learning for Year 4, 5 and 6 and ableto interpret an answer questions on application, interpretation, predict,sequence and method.

Analysis of Section BSCIENCE

(Section B)

By Ahmad Pua'ad Ibrahim

Hello children! How was your holidays? I hope all of you had agreat time.

This week I am providing analysis of Section B for the 2009Science paper. You may find it helpful. Science Section B is asubjective paper. This means your answers have to be scientificallycorrect as well as using the correct scientific language.

Section B will test candidates on Science Process Skills suchas Observation, Inference, Controlling Variables, Hypothesis,Interpreting data and Predicting. The questions will appear in twolanguages, first in English, then followed by Malay. Candidatesalso got to choose whether to answer the questions in English orMalay. The 5 questions posed in both languages may seem to bea lot, but by doing the exercises diligently both in school and athome, candidates should be able to handle them quite well.

Section B have3 questions on tables, 3 questions on pictures,and 1 question each on bar chart and general statement. Last

years exam test candidates on fivethemes such as:

Theme 1 - Investigating of Living Things: Year 5 (question 1)Theme 2 - Investigating Force and Energy: Year 4 (question 2)Theme 3 - Investigating Technology: Year 5 (question 3)Theme 4 - Investigating the Earth and the Universe: Year 5(question 4)Theme 5 - Investigating Force and Energy: Year 6 and Technology:Year 6 (question 5) The pattern of last years questions was easier compared to

previous year. Based on UPSR 2009, the table below showsthemarks for every Science Process Skill.

you must observe carefully the information given in the picture.You can get the answer on inference by the knowledge gatheredin Year 5 in question 3 (b). This inference, must relate to the topicabout Stability but NOT Strength. You have learnt that two factorscan affect the stability of an object: base area and height of anobject. So, you must use this specific term in your answer oninference. Another question on inference can be found in question5 (b), which you can relate to in Year 6, about Friction or Simple

Machine. Again you must be specific and use correct terms whenanswering questions on inference.

3. CONTROLLING VARIABLES (6 questions): Students are already familiar with the terms: thing that wechanged, observed (measured) and kept the same, manipulatedvariable, responding variable and constant variable. All thesewere used in the 2009 exam and all of them appeared in brackets.All three variables (thing/s you changed, observed and kept the

same) can be found directly from the information given, but you

must be able to differentiate each variable. These are quite easyquestions to score because the answers are straightforward andsimple. The keywords to look for are parameter and the substanceor object, and youre on your way!

4. HYPOTHESIS (1 question):

Candidates should by now be familiar with the question:What is the relationship between what you changed andobserved?Actually it sounds like a question on hypothesis.

You can answer this quite easily by using the manipulatedvariable (things that changed) and responding variable (thingsobserved) given in the information. However you must mentionthe relationship between the two variables. This question in 3(d), can be classified as before the experiment. This means, youhave to find out the manipulated variable (things changed) andresponding variable (thing observed) given in the statement andtry to establish the correct relationship based on the knowledgegained in the topic on Stability in Year 5.

5. INTERPRETING DATA (7 questions):

The questions are about trend of change, aim (purpose) ,relationship and conclusion. Questions on trend are relatively easyto answer because the answer can be found in the data given inthe bar chart. In questions on 'aim', you have to findout the thingsyou changed and observed (provided in the information), thenwrite down the sentence. In questions on relationship, 3 (c), themanipulated and responding variable are already given. All you

need to do is to establish the correct relationship based on theresult of this investigation. In the question on conclusion, 2 (c),candidates need to relate the answer from the table. Make surethe correct relationship is used. For question 4 (d), on conclusionyour answer must be obtained from the trend of change, what youobserved then make out the relationship between twovariables.

6. PREDICTING (3 questions):

In questions on predicting, you can answer in numerical form.Do the calculation based on the number pattern given in the table

to get the answer.Overall the questions in section B are quite easy to answer

because they are direct questions. Some of the information givencan be used as your answer. Make sure that you havea good graspof the scientific concept and that your answer is factually correctbecause marks will given on that. The basis of science knowledgeis that you have to understand the concept before answering thequestions. The skills and techniques of answering are also veryimportant as they will enable you to obtain maximum marks. You

will be able to enhance these skills in secondary school. Make sureyou havea good foundation (primary school) when you moveon to the next level (secondary school). Good luck to all 2010candidates. Please follow my column in DIDIK especially on how toanswer correctly in Section B. Take care.
