Happy Mama:

How does one improve or excel in English Vocabulary Cloze Passage? Is it just through reading more books?


I keep telling DD it's just \"common sense\" and I get so upset when she makes an error.

I let my dd do Casco Classroom eng - Vocab, Grammer and Compre Cloze. Its a 3in1book.

Thanks periwinklejoy. Will swing by Popular to take a look, when I have the time.

:slapshead: It seems like Popular Bookstore is becoming my second home this year!

[quote=\"Jennifer\"]Another qn 35a) In which setup will the guppy be the first to die? Explain your ans (2 marks).


My boy ans the first part correctly, but no marks becos his 2nd part ans was marked wrong.

His ans: There was no air for the guppy to breathe in setup B.

Correct ans: The fish in setup B has lesser air becos the oil blocks the air from coming in.

there is a big diff between the term \"no air\" and \"lesser air\". am i right?

Yes, I agreed his ans to part B is less than desired. BUT due to this, his correct ans in part A is also not recognised as correct. His understanding is there, but manner of explaining is lacking.

I find the marking scheme getting more stringent.[/quote]When They Ask For Explanation to Choice of Answer in Part A. And the Explanation in Part B Does Not match the Correct Ones they HAve in Hand, U Won't Score any Marks for Part A even if that is the Right Choice.

My Gal Got A Rather Cute Comment from T, \"Fluke\" ....
Guess T Means = \"Tikam-Tikam\",
So No Marks -lor ....
Ha Ha ....

Ya, as mentioned, only my elder DD's Ts are v responsive. So far I had bn thankg God for blessg her with the good Ts.
As for younger dd, not so fortunate, but I think mayb T is busy or overwhelmed. But if I write on her diary, I sure do get a reply as my Jdd wld bring it to T and T has to respond :lol:
Im more concerned for my Jdd as she based on her feedback form with the gradings, she was graded 3 for \"Pays attention in class\" for all the 3 subjects... haiz... :roll: :stupid:
My Sdd no such probs. No discipline issue, and so far no complaints fr Ts all these years
I dunno but I wil check if other P5 parents receive the feedback forms

Ya, both my son (P5) and dd (P2) received the feedback/comment slips from their respective subject teachers yesterday. You should get them today.

Poor mama. DDs didn't do well but mama gets the blame. Don't know whether if my ds doesn't do well, dw will give me the same treatment or not? :?

i thought should be the other way round...

Iirc, IJJ said that for us to reach 1000 pages is chicken feet.


Looks like she’s an expert farmer cos we’ll definitely breach this milestone by this fri after PTC.
