      Btw, my kids were from pcf preschool previously, and story books review is already part of their curriculum. So i tink it is not unusual tat they do it in p1 as well.



      But to do 30 book reviews is common during school holidays meh? I think it is madness.

      If the class has 30 pupils, then it will be 30 x 30 = 900 book reviews for teacher to read and mark. I really doubt the teacher will read. :siam:

          some neighborhood schools are trying to catch up the pace, with popular schools. Hence, they are raising their school standard. Some parents like, they welcome this move.

          I welcome this move but teachers must also play their role. Not dump a piece of work with barely any instructions to the student. The student dump the work to the parent. The parent dump the work to me.

          My son is in P4 this year. He used to be in a neighbourhood primary school with negligible homework. It was quite relaxing/boring for him at school. Transferred to another school this year. A much welcomed change.

            If the teacher did not let them practice in school, how can they be expected to write during exams? 100 words for P1. Most students cannot write that long.

            tuition lor.. school din teach but expect more.. parents dig pocket send tuition..this is still the same..

                That is why a lot of enrichment ctr are flourishing w good business.

                But the ctr only teach the child technique and child only hav weekly practice since he only goes 1 lesson per week. If the child want vast improvement, he should also revise and practice at home, what he learn at the enrich/tuition ctr.

                  What kind of advice? If travel time more than an hour, which means your daughter has to leave the house by 6am. 15-20mins to prepare, wake up at around 5.30am. Does she needs to go after school care?
