      Only 2 compo a term? My ds having compo every week, sometimes about 2 compo a week. Take for eg, this long weekend, he had to write 2 compos and 1 booklet. Good for him to practise writing but at times it is too much for him to handle.

      Hi Giggler1, does your ds teacher guide them to do composition in class or the work is sent back for the child to complete? There is a difference between quality teaching and quantity teaching. I hope your ds teacher guide the class to write composition and make them do re-draft.

        Ds’ teacher go through the 3 pictures in class. End of the lesson, they will need to copy the helping words during the class discussion. Thereafter, they need to write the compo at home. They do re-draft a few times after the teacher saw their compo. Not sure if this is considered quality teaching or quantity teaching liao.

                sembgal, thanks! But at times, this teacher creates stress in the boy.

                  very seldom, rare do you find a Form Tr so hardworking in school, to train students in writing. She is a gem !

                      very lucky !
                      will be great if she can follow up with your son to P3 next year 🙂

                      not sure if your school will re-org into class differentiation, at end of P2 (Term 4 Nov this year) : because normally P3 have 40+ students per class, while P2 still 30 students per class.

                        Anyone has a good eng tutor or enrichment centre to recommend? Looking to build a strong grammar and vocab foundations, and at the same time to start on compo writing.
