the maths workshop is really an eye opener for me.. interesting


our little girls are now into the 2nd mth of p1, so far so good i think.

can i ask if your girl is doing any revision at home after yr dinner. I find the time is so limited.

catherineleesg:

my girl is settling in well. she enjoys her class and lessons and likes her teachers and classmates, made several friends.

we try to do revision before she goes to bed. in fact, we started this routine when she was in nursery; to have nightly activities so now, it's isn't like an additional stuff for her.

i do not like the afternoon session. haha.. it's because i feel that the entire day is gone. nothing much can be done in the morning and then when the girl returns in the evening, its only like 2.5hrs before bedtime at 10pm. yes, like you said, not much time left. in a way, i am looking forward to the single session where at least she will get back earlier in the day but then again, i have this feeling that she will be held back in sch for what not... now that the school has an entire afternoon to play with.

I personnaly prefer morning session too…PM session really not much time for revision and stuffs. She came back looking very tired almost everyday…

krazy:

Perhaps it is time to email her teacher.

Kuasimi:

oh no...I can't find it in her 笔记 as well...Ask her again last night and she claim that her teacer has not given it yet...????

Thanks Krazy, the chinese teacher called me after i left a note in her diary. She was on MC for the whole week thus no tingxie list was given.

hello mummies!


back from my biz trip and found the notes given by the school.

The canteen prices seems reasonable, don’t you think?

DD1 FT also gave a note which listed her email address , did you receive that as well?

[krazy]

Morning!

Yes, I find the food reasonably priced too.

Yes again to the note from form teacher. It was very informative to have her email add as the school website does not have a contact list of their teaching stuff.

re: chinese ting xie
there are two list: one which has a combination of han yu and chinese characters and another which only has han yu. Would you know which list should our girls be learning , tested for the first ting xie this Wed?

Hi krazy,

the CL spelling list is the one with both hanyu+chinese characters. the kids will be tested on hanyu only. My gal ting xie is on Friday, Wed is her English.

for the revision, i find it so hard to do it at night now becos i need to get her to bed by 10pm. After a whole day in sch and BAC, i was wondering if I should cont to revise with her… wondering if it will be too hard for her after a long day…haiz

[Kissgurami]

Hi krazy,


Yup, they are only tested on hanyu pinyin. The 听写 list states characters are for references only.

Hi catherineleesg,

BASC does some revision with DD1 so I will try to revise 45 mins - 1hr with her daily.. try..

[krazy]

err... i think i didn't make myself clear.


there are 2 pages of ting xie.

page 1: a combination of hanyu and chinese characters
page 2: only hanyu

and for page 2, there isnt any heading that says \"ting xie 1\" \"ting xie 2\"

So it is \"ting xie 1\" that we have to learn right?

[catherineleesg]
