P5 vocabulary list shocks parents
-
3Boys:
Implicit in the aforementioned word list, suffused with such verbosity and resulting in such bedlam amongst the locally domiciled, is the tenable intent to raise the standard of vocabulary of our 9 year olds to great eminence. It is pursuant to the objective of not having our offspring join the ranks of the navvy, in and of itself, worthy of plaudits. The powers that be, however, are indicted by accusations of intemperance, causing great umbrage amongst the piteous masses, with calls to action bordering on manslaughter! Whilst we should not allow swords-rattling-in-scabbards to beguile into demanding that our podgy administrators with their osseous policies be retired to more suitable pursuits like philately, it is unequivocal that some action be taken to restore our children’s diurnal patterns as opposed to accepting sleep deprivation.
Oh yes, BTW, which school did you go to?
Oh wait ... dont tell . Its going to be in hot demand :evil:
I really loike the way you used all the words in context about the rucus it has raised :udaman: -

:goodpost:I showed my elder boy the list, he scored 14/24.
He felt that parents should not rant about the list as it is just a list.
Actually I find those names on trading cards even harder to remember.
When my elder boy just started primary school education, I was very on the ball with learning the spelling lists and making sure he got full marks.
But after a while, I realised that a spelling list is not going to prove that my child has a good English foundation. Why was I so insistent that every spelling test must be a perfect score?
I learnt to let go.
Some schools might be setting a rat race BUT we can opt not to join in. -

Coming from you must be correct ! :udaman: -

Does the teacher expect the kids to just recognise the words, or define them, spell them, use them? Because there is no harm in introducing advanced word to kids if there is no pressure to 'learn' and use them. If the teacher just wanted them to develop some passive knowledge, I see no problem with these words.
Agree that the context is important. Even so, for all those words to appear TOGETHER on any list for a P5 is pretty advanced! -
