They are shown how to understand it as repeated addition.

Yaah.. the privileged children get additional external help from learning
centres outside on top of attending preschool daily.. but the less privi...

blamed for the rat race that they themselves created?

Heyya venus77… which level is your child in?
By P1 and P2 levels, it is normal for teachers to give ten words a week
according to the Stellar pgrm story book for the month…with or without
dictation. Likewise for comprehension… the students will be taught to look
for clue words even within the questions, which they will highlight or
bracket to make emphasis on the answers to look out for and how to
write them correctly. As for the speed, ideally the children shouldn’t
spend too long especially for short passages with straightforward
questions… for the whole exam format English paper should be
completed within a time frame usually about 1.5 hours. There
should be time for children to check their work upon finishing
any exam papers. -

If you look at it in a positive way, it is good that his preschool
is preparing him for formal primary education.

Tin Xie words are pretty difficult words, short and long sentence. -
ya buds…very grateful with his current teacher bearing with his slow pace.
I just hope that he can concentrate on his daily work… -
