Hi,


Yes, the next HYPY Spelling is on this Friday, 28 Feb. Also the English Topical test for unit 1/2 is taking place on the same day.

Hi Eva,

So you child will be joining P1 in 2012. The question on which school to chose would depend very much on your own decision & judgement. Bottom line is the child would enjoy the 6 years of his/her primary education. I believe both schools would have open house nearer to the date of registrations. Bring you child to the school and let him/her see the environment and also this would give yourself a chance to talk to the school teachers and understd their curriculum better.

All the best in the registration program.

cheers,
astee

Hi Eva,
You are most welcome and it's always a pleasure to share parenting/schooling experienced with one another. Everyday is a learning day to us, parents, too.

Yes, TG has an Aesthetics curriculum and it helps to build up the characters in the child. Also not forgetting the school also uses Edward De Bono 7 Thinking Hats to cultivate the value of the child/children.

I believe MF would also has similar kind of teaching and value add.

Regards.

Hi Eva, welcome to the forum. Hope you find the right advice you need here. I agree with Astee. The most important part of the school is that your kid will enjoy the 6 years in school. Another thing to consider include convenient of the location for you child to travel. Go visit the open house is a big help.

Hi Pocky30, the MT workbook is the 华文活动本. I forgot that the list is in the Chinese textbook and not in the workbook. Sorry to confuse you. This week my boy brought back the information on AsknLearn. We logged in and did not see any assignment by teachers yet. Did you try it?

Hi Rejoice,

I don't think there are any assignment on the AnL portal. My children log on to play the games and challenge their classmates (*Faint*) they said it's like a FB concept. So i am restricting them to go online on wkend, otherwise, it becomes an addiction. :roll:

Hi


Would like to ask about the chinese spelling words that was given to the teacher? According to the list it should be only b p m f d t n l but when I received the spelling book from my son today, it was totally a different words. It’s really puzzled me when I got it and he just got a just pass grade. Can anyone enlighten me or maybe I should consult the teacher.

Hi Porky30,

If i understand the spelling test correctly, my son told me the teacher gave them a picture list which show some characters. Example if there is a Buddha, they are supposed to complete it with f to the o given on the list. If the picture showing a child reading, it's 读，the child supposed to complete it wz d to the u given. Btw, my son's class has a long list of such picture words given to them to revise for the Monday MT Quiz. So while revising the list, he also understand it clearer.

Still if you have doubts, always good to talk to the MT Teacher and understand from her.

Hi all

Happy CNY to all of you. Hope u didn’t have much trouble getting your DS and DD to school today.

Hi Porky30, I wrote to form teacher asking about AnL. She said if assignment is given, she will inform the students. Have you tried the Chinese margezin website? We could not log on the site and my DS could not tell us clearly what he is supposed to do with it :-p.
