[quote=\"CMUM\"]Hi rejoice,


TGPS thread has become more and more lively with the new mummies around. How I hope I can also join in.

Hi Cmum,

I personally also prefer to read TGPS threads - moms here are warm and friendly. Before the P1 egistration, I have read Mayflower, TV etc... network threads quite bored :roll:

HI mng and Cmum,

All thanks to all of you for contribution. We may go offline for a while when the kids are busy with term tests or holiday, but we will always come back here. So keep the posts and questions coming.

The P1 to P5 kids have a very long weekend again this week due to PSLE Oral Exam. They are out of school from today till next Monday. But the teachers have given them homework to keep them busy for at least half a day to a day. It is a well deserved break for them and mummies after the term tests. After that, we will all look forward to a one week break in September . I also look forward for a long night sleep :boogie: [/quote]Rejoice/Astee,
加油！ :rahrah: our time will come next year!

Hi Mng,


:thankyou: . We are hanging there well with all your support.

I actually look forward to next year when DS2 will join DS1 at primary school. That way at least they have same holiday and same school hours (hopefully). That will make it easy for me to plan their schedule and holiday trip :-p. Hehe I am as excited as all of you though this is my 2nd time already. Haha

Hi Mng_KL,


Yes, it's great to have a Lively forum and i am Thankful to all TGPS parents and other school parents sharing to the topics. Agreed fully with what Rejoice said - regardless which school your DS/DD is attending, at P1, we are all at the same starting mark. So it's good to have listening ears along the hurdles to share all the ups/downs. When the child reaches the finishing line - PSLE, that's where we can have our first sigh of relief. :imanangel:

Ninjabo,
By your description - your DS sounds like a pretty independent rider, looking forward to meeting this little gentleman soon.

Hi Beauty,
Don't worry about missing out anything in the first term, as that is still the transition period and our little kiddos will be still in their \"honeymoon\" season.. Blur is very common among them... :scratchhead:

Cmum,
Come along to join us in the discussion as and when you have the time/chance. We will be happy to hear how different school manage their curriculum, probably can draw out a Good Practise guideline along the way..haha.

Rejoice,
I am a permanent fixture at Gate A for lunch delivery. USually will sit around the guard seat or long bench for the food, as that's where the fan is...

Last but not the least - Wishing all kiddos/mommies and daddies - a very Happy Hari Raya Holidays!! Enjoy the well deserved rest and family bonding time.

Cheers,
astee

hi TGP parents,


I am a new member here. My DD will be in TGPS next year P1. The problem is she still cannot read very well and has no math concept. Will the school guide extra lesson for P1 for such students?

[beauty79]

Hi Concern_mum,


So glad to have one more parent that I can network with as my DD is also going into P1 next year. Earlier in the post, someone mentioned that there’s learning support programme for pupils who are weak in their EL or MA. If you are interested to look for P1 prep class and reading class for Yr child, you can pm me.

[concern_mum]

Hi Beauty 79, nice to know you. My DD has a bit of learning difficulty or maybe i coach her a bit too late. Currently i am trying to make her read EL and CL book. The progress is a bit slow. i intend to coach her myself because we ever sent her to phonic and reading class but it doesn’t help.

[rejoice137]

Hi Concern_mum,


Welcome to the forum. I sure hope you will find valuable information here.

For Math concept, I used to play game with my DSs. Like I will ask them question like if everyone in the family has a bicycle, how many wheels will that be. I read from a book that suggests playing shopping mall will be fun and good to teach math concept. You can let your DD be the store keeper and you be the customer to teach her addition and substraction and concept of number or even weight. Let her sell things she like and let her set the price. Make it like a game playing and not like teaching so that she will enjoy the game more.

As for reading, start with simple books or books with topic she may be interested first. Encourage her to read after you and take it easy.

The more important is to take it slowly and enjoy the process and bonding time. Don't stress both of you out. I am sure with your patient, she will turn out all right. All the best :rahrah:

Yes indeed needs a lot of patient. We will slowly learn and grow together with our children. Our children grow up and we grow wiser and more patient. Being a mother who cares for the well being of your child, I am sure you will be able to do that.
