I happened to see this 学习华文乐乐乐 while browsing the books around the Chinese section...available for P2 as well. -
My hubby told me one of us should speak to daughter in Eng, the other to her in Mandarin. After attending briefing last night for P1, he started to worry about the high expectation from the school.
The HOD for Chinese said it is necessary to get the kids to understand ci2 yu3 for eg ‘hua1 sheng1’ (peanut), ‘hu2 die2’ (butterfly). By itself, ‘hu’ doesn’t make sense but when hu die is put together, it means butterfly. -

Yes, there are 3-4 different ways of testing CL spelling...from choosing what you think is correct, to filling in the different tones. Next week, I don't know why there is spelling on Wed and Friday.The rules are confusing.

What I do is I read the words individually first to get the tones right. Have to write both words in 3rd tone eventhough pronouce it differently.The rules are confusing.

We are almost at the end of term 1 and I must say time really flies.
The hanyu pinyin for P1 is no joke. Kids with no or little prior knowledge will definitely struggle a bit… it’s really just hanyu pinyin all the way so far. However, practise makes perfect, my girl has certainly master quite a bit of hanyu pinyin now… -
