All About Preparing For Primary One

[janet88]

Hi Champion,

So I'm not the only parent with this problem :slapshead: damn stupid !!
It's ridiculous that for the whole week we are doing nothing but just learning 听写 and EL spelling. Mon/Tue learn 听写...Wed/Thur learn spelling. What time do we have for other stuff then ?? There is grammar, vocab, synthesis and comprehension too...this coming Friday, daughter has Listening Comprehension and Comprehenson OE next week.

[quote=\"CayennePepper\"]I come up with very time consuming activities so I can do housework in peace . Like staging a play/concert for daddy. Once I got them to rearrange all their books whch took hours...

:rotflmao: I do the same! I get them to clear up their room and it will take an hour to do it and I can just watch tv while they are sorting out their room

:evil: I think I should do that too! I like the watch tv part! :rahrah:[/quote]
Clear up their room take hrs??? Wat kind of clearing up the room are both of u toking abt ah?

Makes me tink tat the ultimate outcome will b a even MESSIER room.. :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

My kids are aged 2, 4, 6.. oldest one can clear.. but hor.. the youngest is the destructive one.. :faint:

my ds’s definition of picking up his toys is to move it from spot a to spot b (as long as it is different spot even if just 10m away also can) and not back to where it should be.

not hours.. at most 1.5 hr :rotflmao:

arranging their bed and blanket. making sure, there's nothing on the floor. Books/assessment tidied up. bags in cubby hole. no tissue paper lying around.. arranging their soft toys :oops: they are 5 and 6... so quite ok

I doubt I will let 2 year clear the room, confirm double confirm worse than before :rotflmao:

I ask them to put things back where they belong, and after doing that, vacuum the floor which they enjoy. Then i have less housework to do mah. :evil:
They will stop to chit chat to one another, get distracted with toys found in a corner, find an interesting book and start reading... Can really take hours. After that they will be tired out and i can enjoy more peace and quiet!
