After the last GEP screening tests on 24 August, DD1 (P3) came home told me,\" Mummy, xxx cried because she unable to finish the Maths paper and she worried her mummy will cane her! -

DH & me also not from GEP. We did not miss the boat, the boat was still in the drafting stage during our times. :rotflmao:Way2GO:
[quote=\"comfy\"]hee hee that what the MOE said during the GEP briefing, genes from parents. But strange, neither me or hb are from gep lei.
GEP was only implemented from 1984.
So, we never got to find out but I believed my DS got that genes from his dad as I'm hopeless with Math. :stupid:[/quote]perhaps can start a poll here to find out how many parents and child are both from GEP..... -

Still so much work. Sounds more like full blown hurricane than a \"breeze\" leh...
When my ds was in p5, last yr, a few parents here said tt p6 gep is a breeze... But no le ... As they have ct1 in march and SA in may plus various English assignment,Ss portfolio , maths assignment ... So it was very busy in 1st and 2 Nd termHerbie:
hi vlim,
How's P6 Gep like?? is it tough?
.. But I feel relief after his p6 sa1 exam as tt is the last gep exam 
... I feel tt p6 science got lots more things to study such as adaption which is part of mainstream curriculum also .... The rest of the subjects are abt the same as p5 lor .
For Ss they have to do 2 portfolio whereby they have to choose their own topics.... Need quite a fair bit of write out with simple survey etc etc.. But with p4 and p5 Ss portfolio experiences... They shouldn't have much problem with it also with the teacher guidance .. -

:rotflmao: ...maybe for kids tt take things easy but not for my ds and me

Alamak, KSP, u didn't get my msg huh?
perhaps can start a poll here to find out how many parents and child are both from GEP.....Way2GO:
GEP was only implemented from 1984.
GEP only started in 1984, if both parents n child was/is in GEP,
then GEP parents will be too shy to identify themselves liao
u know wat I mean? :evil:

may be the breeze has tranformed ino hurricane over the years. I hope it will be downgraded to breeze again for next year.

MotherHen:
You space out, I got headache after reading 3 to 4 times & a few pages somemore. Still can't answer some of the questions. I wonder what they (GEP dept) hope to achieve. Try to kill some of these kids' passion for learning!? Not all kids like this type of dry materials/topics. Or is it I am out of touch?
That's wonderful! It's always a happy thing to see improvement. Let's all jiayou together!Herbie:
Hi motherhen, i hv given up on gep's compre liao, the topic given is just so 'dry'.
Thankfully, dd did ok for the recent eng ct and her hmt has also improved slightly as compared to last semester.
Yah talk about dry topics for compre. I usually start to space out about one-third into the passage. Mid-way through I already have no idea what the passage is all about. I really feel sorry for the students who have to read through the whole passage.... The thought of it is enough to make me cry.
