Finally, her P3 class received the long-awaited 默写 list. It was not Killer as I had expected, at least not yet, I guess.

finally, my dd received her first moxie list in these school years!!
no wonder, she told me, many her classmates could speak out the 人物描写 / 心里描写 in the chinese lesson, but she never could think of any...

lizhi, i believe your dd is very bright and it is not too late to catch up...
i would suggest that you try to compile the past P2 and P3 默写 for you dd and let her has a feel how to do a 人物描写 / 心里描写. This will be helpful.

hey parents, how much do you pay for the ccas? DS brought home a slip for table tennis, stating that its $220 for 20 lessons.. is this for competitive table tennis? or for all p1s who sign up for table tennis.. quite confused... thought it was very expensive for a cca..

i got that too...should be non-competitive....i was shocked seeing that figure but anyway i signed dd up since there aren't any other suitable ccas for her....i was telling that for that $220 spent, she better learn and know how to hit the ping-pong ball and not to go there picking the ball instead....

PH hires China coaches to teach both the competitive and non-competitive students, so we need to pay (or co-pay) even if our kids go for the non-competitive sessions. Not sure if those in competitive pay more or in fact pay less since they are playing for the school.

I got a shock too in my 1st yr of paying for CCA, then realize that the rates are not very different from those if you were to learn from CCs, except that to learn it in school saves the hassle of sending them to another sport venue, and they learn with their schoolmates. In fact, the table tennis coach for PH is 1 of the Chinese coaches who teaches some students in CCK sports stadium, not sure the students' parents pay extra for that, or that's 1 of the courses offers by the Singapore Sport council.

It was the ninth passage from the 20 passages that my dd received last year in one chunk. So the P2s this year had it slightly easier or the teachers decided to re-organise the passages, or maybe different class start with different passages?

The first one from my dd's P2 list was:

中午,天上没有一丝云彩,太阳像火球般地照着大地.天气十分闷热,我汗流浃背地走路回家.

I was glad the sentences became shorter when the workload got heavier over the months so the first 6 were actually quite long to memorise.

Finally, her P3 class received the long-awaited 默写 list. It was not Killer as I had expected, at least not yet, I guess.

E3, is it possible that you are seeing the list for Term 3/4....or the school actually lower the expectation since there is no more top classes...

Nope, that passage is 默写(一) and yours is 默写(九). If Happy Mama has the same list (if she still has it), she can verify too. See, the class names are not the ONLY changes.[/quote]I checked 2009 P2 list. This exact sentence (我的同学小玲，她的个子小小，脸蛋圆圆的，像个大苹果。) was also 默写(九). 默写(一) on the list was what E3 has typed.

默写(九) was given during term 2 in May, about 2 weeks before SA1.

Besides the list with 20 passages, the P2 CL teacher also gave moxie from the 五感佳句表.

[/quote]i think any school's CCA all need to pay...and the price is ard 10 per hour, alrdy cheaper than outside. we may compare the price with other school... it is not related to China coach or competitive session. of course CC's course price is lower than private course.
