Wow seem like I need to do some preparation for P1 chinese as my DS also the type said chinese is difficult. Writing chinese character for spelling test he felt stress.Any recommendations on how able to recognise chinese character?

Ask my dd to practice writing, her tears will roll. She would continue writing while grumbling 'I hate Chinese' & then get full marks for her tingxie nevertheless
I guess I've given up hope that she would fall in love with Chinese one day. I'm very grateful if she would just endure it

similar book like \"Zi Xing Hua\" will probably have more interesting factor in recognition of words.
Besides this, I explain to my child that learning chinese is not matter of choice. give her numerous example of benefit of learning chinese. -

my ds1 who doesn't speak good mandarin (he usually translates his english thoughts to mandarin before speaking) considers Chinese as his favourite subject (as of now
). i have to thank Berries' (again ) teachers and his current batch of chinese classmates (although i think he is in the bottom tier in his Chinese class, he relish the exposure to his fellow classmates' superb chinese diction - guess i'm lucky that he overcome the initial stress). have to thank Chief too for the e-dict too
He doesn't always get full marks though, but i'm just glad i don't have to nag at him to practise tingxie and doing chinese workbook and his chinese handwriting (not as much if compared to english handwriting :roll:).
so sleepy, i think your girl just need to be in the right 'environment' and be motivated by the right teacher to bring out her potential (don't like chinese but still can get full marks...surely have good foundation).

Hopefully she encounters a good teacher in school who can motivate her -
Hi all,
May I know when do the P1 kids start to write compositions? Term 3, 4? What is the required minimum number of sentences? Is it a 1-picture kinda compo? Are there any recommended books from Popular which provide a guideline of how to teach Chinese compo writing? -

Not sure about other schools, but in my sons' school, they only need to write 5 sentences about a picture start T3 . Not really composition writing, they will only start proper compo in P2.Hi all,
