Hi sean wife,
Good to see you here too.
I don't view Jelic as self-learning. The teacher must teach to ensure that the child is able to understand and then let the child do the activities in the box. From what I can see, the activities in the box has different levels from easy to difficult.
For my case, the teacher will take turns with each child. Sometimes, my child will sit there for a while waiting. I think I will teach DS, once finish a card to raise his hand to get teacher's attention. Will see how that work out heehee. I have similar materials from Taiwan but not sure if it's comparable to Jelic's range. Will have to open the boxes to check heehee.
At the end of each lesson, the teacher will brief me on what are his weaker areas for me to revise at home.
Jelic is advanced in the sense that the prog expect the child to know how to read at three yrs old. There are some activities dealing with reading at his level. I :faint: I just nod when the teacher told me DS needs to know how to read.
Did you highlight to the teacher about the mistake on the worksheet and activity? I find that parents need to show that we know what's going on. If we do not show concern, the teacher will be more lax. That's my experience. -
Hi SAHM_Tan,
With the new teacher, I have even made myself visible to her sitting outside the centre during the lesson, so she definitely knows I am looking…
She also feedback to me after the class. She does not really brief the kid what to do for each box, unless the kid ask for help. My kid also will call her when she needs her to come over, some lessons are better, some lessons the teacher really take her own sweet time…yesterday was the worst when my gal finish the evaluation worksheet, she waited for the teacher to come over and then walk away…I thought my gal do wrongly need to change, but no leh, then like 5 minutes later, she came and then take the paper away then let my gal choose sticker for next box….and actually it was a very easy box, like just find the correct tile to match the picture in the booklet (to observe small difference). My gal was doing herself, also never wait for teacher to check…teacher was busy organizing worksheets at the sidetable, and at that time, only my kids were in the class. Then my gal finished and keep the box, was stopped by the teacher who apparently ask her to do again, but still she never check… After the second round of doing, she then point to each page of the booklet and ask my gal to point to the correct tile….does it sound right to you?? Doesn’t this bore the child?? -
Morning everyone…
Have a good day… -
Good Morning Everyone!!

Hi sean wife,
It’s very weird taking into account that your kid is the only one in class. My DS’s teacher will show him what’s to be done before going on to the next child.
For my case, the Jelic and MPM classes are conducted in the same room and the person-in-charge is also teaching. She’s a no nonsense kind of person so I guess the teachers are serious too.
What do you plan to do? -
Good Afternoon

It's hard to say becos in school DS is also learning addition, etc......
The focus of his maths enrichment is not on addition, subtraction, etc.....
It depends on the focus of the enrichment.
