Hi All,


Did your child bring home the UNSW ICAS test report yesterday? I received the english report but not math.

I think the report is rather comprehensive. It identifies the areas where the child needs improvement in. Quite insightful

Are you refering to those forms in the profile file? I did receive forms for both math and English.

Hi,


I think my answer to the question on improving comprehension probably looks like the stock answer for a question like this

1) They must read widely

2) Get them to read short stories with dialogue included as many comprehension passages are narratives

3) When they get to P4, they should start reading expository style passages that can be found in The Little Red Dot and National Geographic (Kids) as this will also help with cloze passages.

Hi,

Thanks for your value input. I do agree with you must read alot.

I started to train my kid in this way for his comprehension. Instead of giving him whole long passage, i did it with him in a short passage to test his understanding. It work pretty well.

Guess most of us having problem with child to read on chinese book.

I wonder worth to get an ipad where load in all the chinese stories for them to read.

Best with animation where they would feel interesting. Gone with the old days where read a simply blank book!

Hi All Parents,


I have heard that Radin Mas is having an upgrading in which there would be a BASC next time? Any parent can share what are the new facilities the school would add into it?
