Primary school maths: A vicious circle (from TODAY May 8)

[oneheart]

I’m interested. DS in P2 this yr…DD will be in P1 next yr.


I agree that all these is a vicious cycle…plus vicious cycle on the FTWM guilt!!!

If you dun work, no $ to send kids for tuition. You work, can send but not all tuition ctr are gd…must spend time to coach also. For the past yr, most of PSLE top students have mommies who quit work to supervise them. If you can afford it gd…but if not…sigh!

Just curious... which lower primary parent (P1 & P2) would be interested to attend a free workshop (should I decide to conduct one) on How to teach/strategise your Lower Primary kids' learning in order to be prepared for a less-stressful PSLE in P6 AND without resorting to tuition for 4 subjects?

Once this list hits 15, I will organise. This is because there will be some who can't make it. Of 15, if 5 can't make it, I still have 10. Bring a potluck and have a small party too.

Feel free to get you friends who are NOT YET KSP members to sign up.

Please add me. DD is P1 next year. I really enjoy reading a lot of your posts, and seeing the lively \"debates\" between the KSP parents.

DS is P5, too late to try any coaching method maybe, but he's doing fine (in my opinion, i'm not looking for him to be top of the cohort) without private tuition. He only entered the SG school system in Primary 4 having been schooled overseas all his life, and he managed to top the class in P4 (in an average class). This year, most probably it won't happen..also he's been moved to the top 2 class and feeling a lot more stress, which he's having some trouble taking it..

I was thinking a working day week night to cater to working moms&dads outside of school hols. It'll just be like going for after work drinks.
