My son is concerned about his grades because he does not want to lose out to his classmates. He is more kiasu than me. -
i worked out a time-table for son since he started p1 as well as exam revision schedule which is different from daily schedule…this way he knows what to do everyday…this year he is on his own.

TheAnswer:
No one is preparing for SA1 yet? :?
I don't even know when SA1 is.
ds1 is only in P3, never had a real test before. Maybe we are still in lala land. But I think consistent work is more important.

My boy has very little homework from school. On some days, he can finish them in school. At night he usually just relax and fool around with DH. He usually has one hour of serious study every weekday morning. Sometimes lesser when he finishes the allocated work faster. He can process the questions very fast :rahrah:

how do you teach creative writing for both languages?
i used to give ds1 plenty of serious work in lower pri, as he had exams back then. because exams are abolished and no streaming in P1s, i have been quite lax with my P1 ds2. he usually does his tuition homework, or activity booklets (simple science, maze, doodle, crossword), drawing, play lego, reading most of the time. it is a challenge to keep him occupied over weekends despite he is having 3 classes on the 2 days. intend to add on swimming to exhaust his energy. because when he is too free, he will act up and demand my attention or ask for computer/handphone games. need to make trips twice a week to the library to pick out books to occupy him as he does not like too thick books and thin ones got read too fast (and he does not want to return some books yet as want to re-read so am always stuck with only allowing to borrow a few books despite already upgraded to premium membership - i cant wait for holidays to double the quota!).
hope all these free-time reading (he does not read thoroughly though..he only picks on those he likes) will accumulate into something - this is a new approach i adopt for ds2. ds1 used to have to do exam papers/assessment books weekly when he was in P1.
