Chinese Assessment Books

[SAHM_TAN]

Hi lovinglife,


I chked with them last yr and was informed they do not differentiate bet normal and higher chi in their assessment bk.

I think if in lower primary and the child does not "hate" chi, should get higher chi version.

I have their assessment bk too.

Hi Janet really appreciate your posting. Very clear details. My dd school has not given the details yet.

Will share once available. Regret that her school does not have CA1.

No prob ...I had a difficult time teaching my daughter 完成对话 and the other section on choosing right sentence...句子选择. Yesterday's homework was a full paper on the components which will be tested for SA1...chap 1-5.

完成句子 and 完成对话, 不一样. For the former, even if one is wrong, the others will not be affected.

my daughter find most issues with the below topic, any clue how to improve these areas…



3. Choosing the correct sentence 句子选择 (2m)–>all sentence looks similar–> how to find the best suitable one?
4. Complete a sentence 完成句子 (MCQ) – how to choose the correct mostly suitable option?
8. Completing a conversation 完成对话 (5m)–> write your own like fill in the blank?
9. Comprehension: MCQ and OE (16m)
OE:
1. 从文中找出表达意思的词语–>finding word meaning from passage…she was introduced to this type question in this year…bit struggling…dont know how to guide her…
2. 根据文章内容，找出答案写在表格里–>always write half answers…and find difficulty in thinking questions…which is mostly the last question…

3. Choosing the correct sentence 句子选择 (2m)-->all sentence looks similar--> how to find the best suitable one? I share the same problem with you...but at this level, knowing how to read is crucial bcos my daughter knows which sentence is definitely wrong when I read to her.
4. Complete a sentence 完成句子 (MCQ) -- how to choose the correct mostly suitable option?
8. Completing a conversation 完成对话 (5m)--> write your own like fill in the blank? Choose the correct sentence from options given. Again, have to read and find clues in the next sentence provided.
9. Comprehension: MCQ and OE (16m)
OE:
1. 从文中找出表达意思的词语-->finding word meaning from passage..she was introduced to this type question in this year..bit struggling..dont know how to guide her..
2. 根据文章内容，找出答案写在表格里-->always write half answers..and find difficulty in thinking questions..which is mostly the last question..

All these components are very new...have to go intensive with daughter this March holiday.

Chinese standard is brought downwards.

My son said some of the characters which he learnt in upp primary are now seen in his sister's textbook...also those components like 句子选择, 完成对话 (used to be p4), 从文中找出表达意思的词语/根据文章内容，找出答案写在表格里 (p5).
Fresh out of P2, how can P3 kids be faced with such stuff? :siao:

Ok Janet. I will tell my daughter to be patient and slowly read thru the options.

She is the queen of rushing up.. have to change the mindset slowly..

This so-called holiday is not entirely a fun one. When term 2 begins, it will be very mad rush to prepare her for the scary SA1 format. Just thinking of the component like the comprehension question with the box, finding the 词语 from passage is going to be uphill. Whose idea is it to bring this new format in so soon? :slapshead:
