Agreed. That's why I wld like to hear from the HOD exactly what happened during the lesson. My P4 boy was unable to tell me more as he has learnt the skill of hearing only the good stuff. The moment Mr Chin criticised his work, his ears switched off.


My elder boy had a Dec hols assignment: to come up with a poster on the author of The Animal Farm. His was the 1st to be presented in class, followed by another classmate. The teacher then called for a pause and used these two posters to explain to the class what was correctly done, what's not. This teacher explicitly told my boy and his classmate that his remarks are directed at the posters, not the persons who prepared the posters. This is acceptable to me.

This is acceptance to me too.

Hi Funx3,

I got the book 'Challenging Maths Problems Made Easy' yesterday and to my horror :!: it doesn't look like English to me...more like Greek..feeling really stupid. I just don't understand why primary school is this tough now.

IS this the 4-in-1 book?

The other day my son was telling me they just learnt \"cross multiply\" in MA. I was like \"so early?\" becos I vividly remember I learnt it only in sec 1.

People have advanced by 3 years...

As in factorisation? :?

Hubby just told last night about the P1 Maths taught to daughter in school when he signed the worksheets.

I was stump a couple of times last year when my dd came back with some of those questions. Time has changed.
