      [quote=\"crystalbelle\"]wonder how to coach him to write properly ? :scratchhead:

      This is important in primary school right? Marks will get deducted if the handwritting not nice ?

      My DD kindergarten teacher also complain abt her handwriting ... In pri sch marks deducted for ugly handwriting? Didn't know tat .. I tot most doctor handwriting also not nice leh 😆

      yup, maybe should interview Doctor whether they handwritting is nice during their primary school time 😂[/quote]Got to practice more at home for handwriting..my DS during had been writing in N2 with dotted lines. Now handwriting is not bad, but no patience, last few works looks like drawings instead of writing.

          For holistic assessment curriculum, yes, handwriting is a component. They called it Stellar Handwriting.
          My nephew had a teacher in Pri 1 who was sooooo particular about handwriting. In our eyes, he wrote so neatly, but teacher was not satisfied. She'll erase away untidy and neat handwriting ....My sis had a phobia after that and she spent alot of money on buying good erasers.

          :faint:
          talking about \" good eraser\", which one is good? Cause i have many eraser but when rub, it always make so much for the \" curly things \" :frustrated: , something cannot even rub properly lor

            Wow if whole family goes, it will have to be about $300 dollars lor…

              Initially we find it expensive as well. My DS had been attending concerts since N1. So let him go expose and build confidence. The process was fun and we even practice with him at home of his dance steps. It is a little ex, hope next year would be cheaper and the graduands will be more. Their graduation cert was awarded by the parents on stage to their kids, I find it good and nice. Memorable moments to capture.
