Lighter math load for P1 pupils next year

SINGAPORE - Primary 1 pupils next year will get more breathing room when learning maths, after a decision by the Ministry of Education (MOE) to drop a part of the syllabus.
Pupils will no longer need to learn about 3D shapes, and will not be taught to measure and compare objects' physical mass through the use of non-standard units like paper clips and apples, reported Today.
What they will learn is to differentiate the orientation of objects - whether they are facing left, right, or pointing up or down.
Primary school teachers welcomed the changes, as it bridges the learning gap and will allow pupils more time to grasp the remaining topics.
The change comes after MOE's regular curriculum review, which is done once every six years.
According to an MOE spokesperson, the PSLE maths format in 2018 will also be adjusted accordingly. Changes will be made known to schools two years in advance.
