I gave dd1 a plastic folder since last yr for her to keep any forms, hand-outs that are given to her. This more or less protected the paper from being crumpled.


Most of the bks are in school. Right now she has Chi, Maths, Art and Music text with her. Though I think, by next wk, Art and Music bks should be kept in school unless there’s a change from last yr.

I think the trs might have started teaching a bit here and there for the P1s bah. Last yr, it was not totally 10 days(? Not sure exact days but think abt there) of no teaching orientation.

dd1 does not like water cooler, she has a 600ml, there about, water bottle.

reiner:

and she said gotta bring textbks to sch today.... tot its still orientation period??


so next week will be start of formal lessons??

how big is the water bottle you give to your kids to bring to sch eh? give my girl a small one ( to lighten her bag) aro 400ml only.... since water cooler is at every corner of sch....

paiseh... lots of qns.... my girl seems like live in her world leh.... asked her 10qns... only ans 1 qn lor, somemore gotta think long long.... so this mummy has lots of qns lor..

no leh, i saw DS2 bag got maths worksheet, already do page 1,2,3. I think orientation over. How many times can they show kids where the toilet is? Heard they do watch videos at times.

DS2 water bottle about 500ml. you are correct, water coolers everywhere and I think kids enjoy to use it. I try not to fill up so much else the poor boy like mule, carry so heavy.

1. :rotflmao: same same, my dd1 opted for erhu becos of air-con. This year will still be learning erhu.

2. From what I understand during the P1 parents' briefing, it's for the FT to understand the kids better. It's a one-to-one session with the student.

3. I'm not exactly sure what are the activities but dd1 had lots of fun.

4. dd1 enjoyed the calligraphy lessons. She wants to continue at home but I've yet to buy the brushes and ink heehee

5. I heard from dd1, di zi gui is conducted during assembly time. At the end of last yr she brought back a copy and was reading it during the dec hols.

can opt one meh? I thought they go for try-outs and the teachers choose? maybe I communication error.

hmm, i heard from DS1 before that teacher will ask them to come up one by one and chit chat. haiz, to me it sounds a bit like interrogation session. maybe I got skeletons in my closet. ha ha.

your girl very good. if it's in chinese, my kid will quietly tuck it very far from view. The day he pick up his dzg and read....i tio tao pio (first prize). :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

My kids have at least 2 plastic folders (gave them the freebie ones from NLB) but still they can come back with salted veg.


btw, Reiner, my boys also like that. I ask 10 times, they MAY finally deign to give me 1 answer. If I ask 1 time and they give me 10 lines, I think I will go into a state of shock… A bit envious of those kids that go back and prattle to their mums.

BUT these days a bit better. because they have to fight for attention (now that both are in primary school), they are volunteering a bit more than what I used to get.

Hmmmm dunno, from what I understand the instruments were displayed for the kids to try. She decided to go for erhu and the tr was ok with her choice. She has been enjoying the air-con ever since :rotflmao:

Have to see mood one lah, think she was bored those few weeks, so decided to read the di zi gui :rotflmao:

now you know the secret...keep her bored?

I learned abt this secret some time back :evil: how else would the kids finish reading the YS and other bks :evil:

[hquek]

Actually quite true. I was amazed when DS1 told me that he had already finished some books without me realizing it.


So another secret unveiled…keep your kids bored and they will turn to books. kekekeke
