      to me, maybe only a waste to forgo cookery.
      Yes, I think so, cos' I believe the kids do get to learn important concepts from these cookery classes, and then get to eat what they cooked. πŸ˜‰

      For i-maths, it depends on the child really. It may be quite simple to some.

          which stage is ur kid in ICR? my kid going k1 next yr only at P&J book 6. πŸ˜›

          He's in PRP level.When he first started in March'10, he was assessed and assigned to TCS that focus on first letter sounding. About a month later, in-charge teacher moved him to PRP level. His motor skill is still weak, need to be strengthen before moving up to ICR level. At a higher level, it requires writing during lessons.......

          My DS is beginning year born boy, your kid is just a few month older than him at most...So I would say that your kid is doing well at P&J book 6. Did you teach your kid phonics / sight reading at home?

            Actually, my DS loves cooking. His wish is being a cook when he grows up. That's what he always say to me......then I would encourage him, good inspiration, better be a well known chef , somebody like sam leong...my own wish though :lol:

            I prefer the i-maths because this will be conducted in chinese.....imagine learning maths + chinese at the same time, kill two birds with one stone

              oh so the benefit of beg yr born kids! πŸ™‚ My no1 is Jun baby. He learn most of his phonics from his old cc in sengkang. a very gd Montessori cc. Only this year, then i bought the P&J series and we read one page a day at home. so far so gd... I heard lots abt ICR (a few of my fren all send their kids there... )and 2 of the 4yos are promoted very quickly to ICR level. I find it gd at least kids are not binded by \"age\" but promoted by their ability.

              my no2 is a Dec kid. oh no.. so i shd lower my expectation for him loh? πŸ˜›

                  i think pat’s has got good in house system, my girl is very weak in her phonics despite all the classes she went to as young as 3yrs old

                  but after 3months with Pat’s she is able to read using her phonics skill and spell as well
                  i-math is also interesting though i still dont know what it is about
                  her interest in maths grow and starts doing alot of enrichment books on maths
                  is a pity i didnt send her earlier to pat’s i can tell that she loves her school
                  she is much happier now

                    oh....what's a surprise to hear that the graduaton ceremony payment is much cheaper now..... πŸ˜‰
                    i remembered during my gal's time, i was paying near to $500,
                    prob the rental of the venue is diff......
                    Correction... just saw the receipt. Total was about $444, inclusive of 3 tickets. 1 ticket is about $58, we even had to pay full fare for DS. πŸ˜›

                    Not sure whether this is it or there will be more to come.
