Hi NickleBee,
I like your statement that caning works effectively for you.
As a matter of thought, I recollected my childhood when my Mum would demonstrate the cane to exert the importance of study. It has worked effectively for me. I did not have any tuition at all and yet, I made my way thru and graduated with 2nd Class Honors about 20 yrs back.
Now that my DD is in P4 and even though she is in GEP class, I would occasionally exert caning (not hard but a firm one ) if needed when she makes careless mistakes repeatedly. It also works well in her too. She would tell me that it is a waking call for her. -
"Most parents think that the curriculum is getting harder, especially for Primary School Maths. I am sorry to disappoint but it is not so. What is happening is that MOE demands that their students master skillsets such as critical thinking, problem solving and heuristics which are skills much needed in the brave new world that is the 21th century our children will grow up in. Such skills are indeed tough for parents who were brought up to absorb knowledge unquestioningly and regurgitate the information during exams to get the appropriate marks. I personally approve of the way MOE is teaching maths nowdays but I believe that MOE could get better returns by perhaps having smaller class sizes when teaching problem solving skills and heuristics."
Thank you Nickle Bee for your kind reply.
Agree that MOE’s approach is a good one, but the concern is the practical relevance of all those convoluted Maths questions for our young kids which have been highlighted in other KSP threads.
Its a brand new game when a kid gets into sec sch. -

PS: Giftedgem, no offence to you on your sharing... We just need to have some laughter, the best medicine, after a horrible rumour. On a serious note, I also do not think caning is a completely bad thing if a parent knows how to exercise it. Only problem is not all parents know how to so advocating it effective can just be a teeny weeny bit dangerous if they do it wrongly... -
