I wonder if the real hard work comes in P5 or P6...all I do know is there is no life. Maybe I still enjoy some peace and quiet when both kids are in school, but mentally I don't feel relaxed.

Hi Janet

Like Oral test for CL and EL for this year, I saw dd brought back those worksheet and also understand from her the teacher has spent some time last week and this week going through the key components.

Like for CL Oral, since they had already finished the 6A book quite earier, the teacher turn to focus more on oral.

So don't worry too much as you still have sufficient time. :hugs:

I am holding on to that thought, and talking to my son... right now, we don't see the light at end of tunnel, but knowing that it's there and we will soon see it is something that encourages both of us.

We will persevere.

Hi Janet

Think all school would do the same thing when they are in P6 lah.

Last year, my nephew's school also have prepared them too.

Like EL, school will also start given worksheets by batches on training specific components like S&T, Grammer, fill in the bland etc

So ignore the FT teacher's comments and just encourage your ds to move on.

I told son that...forget about what she said, keep quiet and talk only when necessary...it's very disappointing that his FT is so discouraging. Can only hope and pray his P6 teachers are more motivating.

Dear Janet

Try to forget this incidenet lah. I use to tell the child takes it as a passing cloud whenever recd any bad comments. The person may already forgotton what they had done and we should also throw it behind us.

Let's be happy and move on. :hugs:
