Both my kids grasped fraction at K2. No special training required, it can be introduced during daily activites, eg. when cutting a cake

Wow, teaching fractions at K1 ??? :shock: :!:


My daughter is learning time in school, but hubby is teaching her money.
Have to push her a little bcos teachers are busy preparing them for concert end of this mth. I'm also trying to finish up some grammar and vocab workbooks - reinforcing her is/are/has/have and pronouns.

Fraction can be fun. You half I half. If I share my half with daddy, we each get one quarter :lol:

Hi, my daughter will be going to P1 in Year 2012. I’m wondering if it is necessary to enrol her into enrichment classes next year to prepare her for primary 1. Please share your ideas and comments. Thanks!

I started my son on Chinese tuition when he was in K2 (4th term) as we had registered him in SAP school (where EL and CL are 1st lang). For my daughter who's going to P1 next yr, we registered her for RC classes in March this year as we are concerned with her Eng next yr (no EL textbook). The teacher isn't in favour of kids taking just one subject...since it's not expensive ($30 per subject), we signed her up for Eng and Math.
