MPM Maths - Discussion

[Snow1976]

Hi Irene,


Actually I have spoken to the person in-charge before to ask whether can skip a few workbooks but she told me to wait until my girl took the test. And provided she got ALL correct then she is allowed to skip a few workbooks. She sound as if is not encouragable to skip workbooks

And to tell the truth, though my girl has been with the centre for 3 months. Till now, I still do not know who is her trainer. Everytime the trainer taking her keeps changing. *headache*

Hi Irene,


I'm those impatient type so I expect to see results within months. No choice, I will wait for the test assessment results and decide furthur.

Thanks for the valuable feedback and advice

Personally find book 40+abit too easy for k2 ESP now oredi in aug...

Agree. My boy is 2 months into MPM and doing books 27 and 28.
So he will be doing 39, 40 by middle of next month (3rd month).
Sounds like Snow1976's DD started off at about the same books as my boy.

But unlike her DD, my boy is only in K1.

K2 children at this time are doing SG081 and above. The advance level children already move on to the P1 materials.


You need to encourage your dd to be more independent, focus (not day dreaming), learning attitute must be positive.

The materials can skip, no choice, if behind time. SG081 above is more important and appropriate for P1 preparation. In this material, it covers word problems, sudoku, coins, tracing lines, very very challenging materials.

If the child is not ready, then go for slower pace.

It depends on individual child...After he complete Jelic ie b4 mpm, ur child has to take the test to determine his starting pt.
