Hi all,


My son is in 1G.

He’s been selected to attend the Dancing class on Wed after school from 2-4pm. It’s some sort of CCA for him.

Coming this Friday is yet again another off day.

In P1, my child is subject to this TouchTyping Test tomorrow.


Don’t seem to find the ideology behind it. Their exposure of working on their school work with the computer is quite minimum for now.

What is touchtyping about? They got attend classess?


Btw, since your child is in P1, may i know is there any exam / test? Whats the frequency? PLease advise.

Does the school based on the result and group the kids?

[alfcnka]

The TouchType is just an excercise to see how well you can TYPE on the computer. Given a text paragraph, child will be assessed on how fast and how many mistakes recorded.


No exams for P1. They are only given a Test on the subjects studied upon completion of the module during the school term. This will be assessed to see if the Child understands what’s being taught.

No, the grouping is only applicable for Chinese subject during the First term by the Teacher. This is to ensure every child can learn at their comfortable pace.

Not much to worry as the workload is quite moderate. Mostly they have already be taught and prepared while in K2.

Btw, previously did u send ur kids for preparatory primary 1? Is it a must?


Next for the touch typing, did the school teach them the correct way of typing on keyboard?

[alfcnka]

They were taught in school and practice on a Typing software at school n home. It’s fun as the software has cartoon characters and kiddy songs.


All childcare or pre-schools are the same. While in K2, the child will be prepare to cope with Primary 1. So no worries. Please don’t over stress your child and make him/her develop a phobia of going Primary 1. Instead, prepare them to be independent and takecare of themselves.

One thing my child complains about is the Staircase. It’s quite a climb to reach his classroom. Even the Canteen is divided into upper and lower canteen.
