      Play is a child's opium. When they are going through pain, they wanna escape into play. If you and I were still kids, we would do the same.


      Perhaps that why when dd back after supplementary class the first thing she want is to have some makan then follow by either playing, reading or watching cartoon show.

      After suppl class (Tue/Thur), he is very hungry and can really eat...and the time is 4pm !!! I've left those 2 evenings free for him to get school hw done. Just revised his weekly schedule...he gets to swim every Sat evening and I get to do nothing but just sit there to see him splash water. :imcool:

        I now know why DS has been given 1 compo a week lately. His file was just collected for checking by the HOD and VP. When files are collected for checking, it’s the school’s way of vetting the teacher’s work. DS’ teacher must be making up for lost time!!

            you know it’s too good to be true when the teachers changes their attitude. In any organization, there must be checks to ensure quality. At least the school has a good Principle that enforces teaching quality through checks. I’m sure the HOD was also forced by the Principle to check the teachers.

                  You expect more? I don't think she could have given more without stressing the kids, though... But I wonder if that one compo a week succeeded in making up for lost time.

                  Oh well... who cares... I've given up expecting anything. I will just do what I can at home.

Where compo is concerned, be it EL or CL, I've washed my hands since I cannot offer any help. Yesterday's homework was CL 命题 type :gloomy: and he had never done it before...so I told him to do what he can.
                    Have to inform tutor this Saturday about it.

                      Well said. Base on this rate of writing how to score during the exam?

                        This CL 命题 for compo. really not easy! For exam is advisable to choose the picture compo. to avoid out of point unless the child is very good in this area.
