Enrichment Programmes (selected students only)

Mathematics enrichment programmes and their aims

Programme	This programme aims to:
Math E2K (Primary 4 – Primary 5)	Foster independence in mathematical thinking skills. Challenge students to think out of the box and develop resilience when face with challenges. Generate a greater interest in Mathematics. Reinforce their perception of self as an independent and mature learner and investigator. The programme does not prepare the children for the examinations in any way and is meant to stretch the students’ mathematical thinking and generate greater interest for the subject. The learning experiences allow the students to develop the habits, attitudes and dispositions that mathematicians possess, as well as to gain important 21st century competencies such as critical and inventive thinking and effective communication skills.
Math Olympiad (Primary 4 – Primary 6)	Impart process and visual thinking skills that are required to solve Math Olympiad-like problems. Provide opportunities for suitable students to take on challenges in handling non-routine problems Stimulate and develop students’ creative thinking and problem-solving abilities Allow students to collaborate in groups to develop essential 21st century skills in terms of communication and teamwork.

Assessment

Assessment Matters

Assessment is an integral part of the teaching and learning process. A balanced assessment system includes both summative and formative assessments. Assessment provides teachers with feedback to help the identify students’ strengths and weaknesses, monitor their progress and adjust instruction to meet their needs.

In RGPS, our teachers assess students using different modes of assessment both formally and informally. A meaningful range of assessment modes and tasks includes: class discussions, classroom discourse, performance tasks, use of checklists, use of rubrics with teachers’ comments and students’ reflections.

P1 – P2

There are no weighted assessments, mid-year examination and end-of-year examination for the students in the year.

P3 & P6

Bite-sized forms of weighted assessments are conducted from Term 1 to Term 3. The table below shows an overview.

Mathematics weighted assessments by level and term, Primary 3 to 6

Level	Term 1	Term 2	Term 3	Term 4
Primary 3	-	Weighted Assessment 1	Weighted Assessment 2	End-of Year Examination
Primary 4	-	Weighted Assessment 1	Weighted Assessment 2	End-of Year Examination
Primary 5	-	Weighted Assessment 1	Weighted Assessment 2	End-of Year Examination
Primary 6	Weighted Assessment 1	Weighted Assessment 2	Prelims	-
