(d) eye — 1 mark. Teaching note: Mata means eye. Body parts: hidung = nose, mulut = mouth, telinga = ear, tangan = hand.
Answer 6.
nasi — 2 marks (1 mark for the correct word, 1 mark for correct spelling). Full sentence: Saya makan nasi di kantin sekolah. (I eat rice at the school canteen.) Nasi = rice, a food word, so it fits with makan (eat).
Answer 7.
susu — 2 marks (1 mark for the correct word, 1 mark for correct spelling). Full sentence: Saya minum susu setiap pagi. (I drink milk every morning.) Susu = milk, a drink, so it fits with minum (drink).
Answer 8.
tangan — 2 marks (1 mark for the correct word, 1 mark for correct spelling). Full sentence: Saya menulis dengan tangan saya. (I write with my hand.) Tangan = hand, a body part used for writing.
Answer 9.
kuning — 2 marks (1 mark for the correct word, 1 mark for correct spelling). Full sentence: Pisang berwarna kuning. (The banana is yellow.) Kuning = yellow, the colour of a ripe banana.
Answer 10.
buku — 2 marks (1 mark for the correct word, 1 mark for correct spelling). Full sentence: Saya membaca sebuah buku di dalam kelas. (I read a book in the classroom.) Buku = book, the thing we membaca (read).
Answer 11.
Animal words: kucing, ayam, ikan — 2 marks (1 mark for circling all three animals, 1 mark for not circling any non-animal word). Teaching note: Haiwan means animals. Meja = table (furniture) and pensel = pencil (school item) do not belong. Kucing = cat, ayam = chicken, ikan = fish.
Answer 12.
Colour words: merah, hijau, biru — 2 marks (1 mark for circling all three colours, 1 mark for not circling any non-colour word). Teaching note: Roti = bread (food) and susu = milk (drink) are not colours. Merah = red, hijau = green, biru = blue.
Answer 13.
Food and drink words: nasi, roti, air — 2 marks (1 mark for circling all three, 1 mark for not circling any wrong word). Teaching note: Nasi = rice, roti = bread, air = water. Kucing = cat (animal) and kerusi = chair (furniture) do not belong.
Answer 14.
meja — 2 marks (1 mark for circling meja, 1 mark for understanding it is not an animal). Reasoning: Kucing (cat), anjing (dog), and ikan (fish) are all haiwan (animals). Meja (table) is furniture, so it does not belong in the animal group.
Answer 15.
pensel — 2 marks (1 mark for circling pensel, 1 mark for understanding it is not a colour). Reasoning: Merah (red), biru (blue), and kuning (yellow) are all colours (warna). Pensel (pencil) is a school item, so it does not belong.
Answer 16.
(a) ayah (b) ibu (c) kakak — 1 mark each, 3 marks total. Teaching notes:
- Ayah = father; ibu = mother. These are the two most common family words.
- Kakak = older brother or older sister. Common mistake: mixing up kakak (older sibling) with adik (younger sibling). Ask: is the sibling older or younger?
- Accept neat, correctly spelled words. Watch the spelling of ayah and kakak (double k).
Answer 17.
(a) 3 (b) 7 (c) 10 — 1 mark each, 3 marks total. Teaching note: Malay numbers 1-10: satu (1), dua (2), tiga (3), empat (4), lima (5), enam (6), tujuh (7), lapan (8), sembilan (9), sepuluh (10). Method: say the Malay word aloud, recall its position in the counting order, then write the matching numeral.
Answer 18.
(a) buku (book) (b) pensel (pencil) (c) kerusi (chair) — 1 mark each, 3 marks total. Expected picture: the image shows a book labelled (a), a pencil labelled (b), and a chair labelled (c), each with a blank line. The student names each item in Malay. Teaching note: Match the picture to the Malay word: book = buku, pencil = pensel, chair = kerusi. Common mistake: writing meja (table) for the chair; check the item has a back and legs for sitting.
Answer 19.
Sample answers: Ini ayah saya. / Ibu saya masak nasi. / Kakak saya rajin. / Adik saya comel. Marking (3 marks):
- 1 mark: uses one family word (ayah, ibu, kakak, adik) correctly.
- 1 mark: writes a complete simple sentence (for example, Ini ___ saya or Subject + Verb).
- 1 mark: correct spelling, capital letter at the start, and full stop at the end. Accept any sensible sentence about family. The sentence does not need to be long; it must be complete and make sense.
Answer 20.
Makanan dan Minuman (Food and Drinks): nasi, roti, susu Haiwan (Animals): kucing, ayam, ikan Marking (3 marks):
- 1 mark: food and drinks group has all three correct words (nasi = rice, roti = bread, susu = milk).
- 1 mark: animals group has all three correct words (kucing = cat, ayam = chicken, ikan = fish).
- 1 mark: no word placed in the wrong group. Teaching note: Sort by meaning first — ask "Can you eat or drink it?" (makan/minum) or "Is it alive?" (haiwan). Common mistake: putting ayam (chicken) under food because chicken can be eaten; remind students that here ayam is the animal name, not the cooked dish.
