Sun_2010:

DS told only abt the maths quiz ( about the week b4 chinese new year), nothing abt the topical test .
I tot for tests they will write down in their diary and get parents signature??

diary?? signature??
So far i have only be signing on the spelling books.
no test sheets so far.

my son's diary is mostly empty except for some homework instructions once in a while.
so i have to check his books to see if he circled any pages (as homework to do).

Any parents here who'd revise with their children the topics covered in the textbook? i dun even know what pages were taught in school. alamak.

OH NO ....
i wish the teachers would blog what they conducted in class.
I dun mean to compare .... another school i know of requires their teachers to blog so that parents know what is going on.

Good and bad .... good cos parents are more informed.
Bad cos teacher is laden with more work, and parents could get even more ultra KS.

cody, sun_2010: yes there was a test on last friday. it was mentioned before the cny hols in the diary and a reminder was also given the week after the cny hols.


DS also mentioned about the maths quiz which was held late last month (if i remember correctly).

Anyone with child from 1E by the way?

yes... was written in his diary... that was how i found out...
could it be because his class did not have any test last Friday?

could it be because his class did not have any test last Friday?

but it could also mean that he already had those tests without my knowledge.
which is very likely the case, because his class won't be spared those tests.

sigh .... i feel bad to write an email to the form teacher to ask for a schedule of test dates but such info is impt too!

its not like the school deliberately left the parents out of the test dates so that the teachers can assess the child's learning because like in kit's case ... you are informed.

but in my case, the communication link ended with my son and i am left in the dark. if not for this forum, i wouldn't even have known! :?

Sun_2010 also did mention that her DS did not have the test.

I'm not sure if any other parents here could share. Maybe good for us to find out more first?

Hi Parents,


I am new! My child is in 1D.

Hi kanyaramesh,

Nice meeting a parent whose child is in the same class as my girl.

Cody: I went home and did a check. It was written Maths Quiz 2 on his diary and not Topical Test. I'm sorry that I have created unnecessary worries for you. My apologies.

Hi all,

No worries kit.

DS did not go to school of Fri. There was only one maths quiz so far for him. Maybe they have it this week? Lets keep it posted here if we know of tests that way atleast we can follow up

Any of you kids dressing up as book charecters?
Do they have to do anything or just go in the character dress?

[cody]

Hi Kit, no worries!


Sun, i clean forgot about dressing up!
oh dear ... when are they supposed to dress up again?

Yay, no school this Friday!

Hooray!
