I see. Thanks. In my dd's case, both P1 n P2 teachers would assign the work in advance so if some kids managed to complete and qualify for the number of stars, the teachers would retain the cards and continued on with the other classmates who were not done with their cards. That's why I found it strange that no badges were given out at all. Guess I might have to check with the FT this year.E3:
Hi, just to check with parents with regard to the Reading Activity Card, whether any of your kids ever receives the badge for completing 20 stars in the card?
Either my boy did not complete enough activities or the teacher did not give full * for each activity, no badge for the past 3 years.
It is not the Avid reader badge right? I thought she earned that from the book reviews that she had submitted at the end of the year. -

Sim Ann is not minister for Education system, but Heng Swee Keat is. Wonder if she has the power to influence him.The newly appointed MP Ms Sim Ann is meeting Toh Yi residents for a dialogue session on 27th May (at blk 6 Toh Yi) and 28th May (at Bt Timah CC). Both sessions start at 7.30pm
From the media interviews, I get the feeling that she might be one of the MP we can talk to about the education system.
Anyone going?
I thought of going, bcos of carpark issues. -

My dd got the badge last year.Hi, just to check with parents with regard to the Reading Activity Card, whether any of your kids ever receives the badge for completing 20 stars in the card?
In the past two years, my dd had conscientiously completed the required number of stars to qualify for the badge but never had she received any. Her classmates also didn't receive. I had never bothered to follow up with this.
However, this year, they are working on the card again, and once again I hear of this 20-star-badge. I wonder will the kids really receive the badges for their hardwork?
The last year's card, is required to complete 15 stars. -

Is it not the Avid reader badge? :lol: My dd said that is, the Reading Activity Card badge, \"Avid Reader\".
