DD came home feeling very excited about tomorrow's Science lesson. They will be learning about animals and her teacher asked for a few volunteers who could bring snails to school for tomorrow's lesson... DD being a little more \"kaypoh\" volunteered...


She's now busy catching snails with my maid. She has caught 2 and is still trying to catch a few for tomorrow's lesson.

Haha! Guess the teacher's method of getting volunteers does work because it got DD more involved and hence more interested in Science.

snails too easy to catch....she should try catching frogs or toads.....

OR DIG FOr EarthWorms ....
We ALL Did that Loooooong Time Ago, Right?
:lol: :lol:

OR Trying to B \"OVER-ly\" HELP-ful !!!!
Ha Ha ....
See, Mark, I Did Not Poke FUN at U this Time ....
But Errrr .... May B Just Rub A Teeny Weeny Bit Of Salt In ....
Hee - Hee ...

I know that trapwithin & janet meant well :>. In any case I'm comforted that P1 to P2 is enbloc rite, keke. Though it would have been better if PH take away exams for P1 & P2 so that P2 to P3 is enbloc too. But that will be asking too much issit?

If That is the Case ....
Then, U Should B Ready to Receive \"Shocking\" Results in P6 ....
And PSLE ....
Think None of the KSP Here Can Stomach THAT!

How I wish DS and yours are in the same class but mine is your DD's neighbor. only the math is in M1 as yours. Seems all the classes are not issued the list. My boy also copied wrongly for some words.

I see I see. Hmm..... wonder why the delay. She did not score well for the 1st spelling. She told me she copied the first list after the actual spelling. :roll: :?

Hi Parents of P1,

Just want to check with you.
Did the school recommend any Eng reference book in the booklist ?
For eg to teach ‘Animals’, ‘Tenses’, ‘Adjectives’.

I've always enjoyed Science lessons during those days especially when we had to dissect frogs during Bio lessons. It was cruel but very exciting.

But those frogs are already dead right? If so, then it's not too cruel what as they won't feel any pain.
