I will face this similar scenario too...PSLE and O levels. Give me a 5.

Yeah.. at least I am not alone. Let's give one another encouragement during that period.

Lucky i only have psle this year. *whew*. I still think the most tedious is psle. Os & As are all up to them, not us.[/quote]Agree..agree. For PSLE, parents still need to be involved since kids are just 11/12 years old. But for O levels, they should be mature to think...for A levels, they are definitely very mature to know what they want.

Hi mum1113,
Fantastic that your DS is inspired to read Chinese books once again. I tried to get DD to read 笑猫日记 but she's not interested.....hiazz. What simpler CL books is your DS reading? Maybe I can see if I can perform a miracle with my DD & get her to read a Chinese book...keke. Tks

The books too simplistic to talk here liao....paiseh paiseh :oops: :oops: let's PM...

[Mum1113]

thanks Tinkerbelle. Thanks for your reminder.... Oral coming in April :slapshead: ....

Yes. Agree this is very tedious. The more I can do is expose dd to more CL song and hopefully she can remember the lyrics.

So mummy and daughter can \"Da Shen Gao Chang\" as the saying goes, practise makes perfect right :love:

Yeah, I'm quite happy that all major tasks are out of the way now. But I think ds2 would be quite unhappy that I am mostly focussing on him. He seems rather \"free\" now despite being in p6!

Ha ha. We always like to sing ....
...百战旧河山 古来功难全 江山几局残 荒城重拾何年
文章写不尽 悠悠沧桑史 悲欢岁月尽无情
长江长千里 黄河水不停 江山依旧 人事已非.....

And don't need to buy egg lah....

Plan to work after dd PSLE. As like everyone say that we also can't do much in their Secondary school. Waiting for 4 October and can disregard all the primary school things lah.

DD just change to a new sch this yr, and CL teacher is teaching them to sing songs like 兰花草, 捉泥鳅, 童话, 外婆的澎湖湾 etc...

As for how it helps in compo will be the way they describe.. like

晚风轻拂澎湖湾
白浪逐沙滩
没有椰林缀斜阳
只是一片海蓝蓝.....

那是外婆柱着杖
将我手轻轻挽...
