      Hi Sean wife, DS is a bit odd becos he is actually doing above his level, he started doing P2/3 work last year. So far these days he only has bits of compo to memorise and some spelling. He usually learn the night before becos we don’t enforce. Luckily he is able to get correct usually (still got mistakes at times). Also it seems that for compo, they may not require verbatim, once he just whack in something for the dictation, teacher still marked him correct (after this posting, dunno if they will enforce). We were wondering if it is becos the basic idea is there and sentence structures are ok.


      No other homework. It is really quite relax for him.

          If you saw his last cloze passage results, you won’t say that. But no worries, I don’t want him to be too complacent, so that was a good peg puller; that said, I do also watch if he is getting demoralized. 😛

              No problem, we will take note of that. Maybe we will see you at the next camp. 😄

                Hi TAS,


                When will your TAS creative writing book 2 be sold at Popular? I have called up several branches and they all say not sold there yet. I wish to get it before the june hols are over so I can go through with ds. I found the vol 1 very useful.

                  The book will probably be out in Popular by end of June.

                        Just went to the popular at United Square. They are selling volume 2 of TAS’s creative book there. But no spelling book. I don’t think Popular is selling TAS’s spelling book.
