Oh dear. How early did your older boy leave for school everyday?

[jedamum]

Oh dear. My boy does not seem to enjoy school. He said a lot of time spent sitting down in the hall to listen to talks about school rules. He gets restless easily and because so far he can control his behavior in school, he acts up at home, demanding attention from me. His favourite period is recess! Lol.

I hope it gets better when lesson starts next week.

Hi Jedamum

Think it's quite normal for children to demand more attn from us now because they may be \"stressed\" in one way or another due to this new phase.

My DS2 has some difficulty waking up in the morning and on the 3rd day, also did show a bit of his unhappiness. However once he reached school, he was ok. I am also hoping that it gets better when he is used to the routine.

Attended a briefing session in his school and was told that the first 3 days, no formal lesson but has to orientate the children, how to queue up, etc.

Hopefully all the P1 children will get used to the school routine soon.

Yes hifive,

He has yet to get to know his classmates. His new best friend he met on the bus is in another class. I am sure he can adapt fast, being kids. But these few days he has been coming into my bedroom in the middle of them night telling me how much he love and miss me. Then squeeze into my bed.the dad could not get a good night sleep and still need to work the next day.
So I have two cranky person at home! Lol.

Same here..noticed he kept putting his fingers in his mouth, biting his fingers or biting the 'spring' theat attached to the wallet during the three orientatn days...asked him why cos he does not hv such habits. He said he is bored. I noticed during the three days his mind was 'wandering' in school. I tink all the 'sit down, keep quiet' instructed by the teachers were all boring..he was not engaged at all unlike in the kindy days. The only time he enjoys is recess cos that is where he can exercise his freedom to buy n eat wat he want. I oso hope next week, he will begins to like his primary sch days more.

[jedamum]

Oh yes, dino mummy!

My boy also put dirty fingers in his mouth! He said tongue itchy.
When they arrive in school via school bus, they have to assemble and wait in canteen until teacher come and get them. I saw he was so bored when I went to see him on day 2. So I pack an activity sheet for him to do on day 3 Ann he was so happy. It also served as an icebreaker as his classmates joined him in the word search.
I need to prepare many more for more days to come till he gets more acquainted with his classmates.:-)
