Hi All, I m new to this website. And my son will be in Primary One next year.


A lot of uncertainties & worries on my part as my boy is the quiet type. He doesn’t really speak up in his k2 class & am concerned that this will be a problem especially when he needs to communicate with the teachers n classmates. As he is a December baby, his learning milestones are also abit delayed compared to other kids his age. Understand that Teck Ghee primary has allied educators whom parents can speak to regarding children who slow learners?

Any mummies who share my concerns? Thanks.

hi, does anyone know is the after school care planning firmed?

Hi Concern mum,


Yes, the after school care plan is firmed and the school is accessing the right location for the centre.

Just to share - this ASC is target at certain group of children and i think the school will only qualify those that meet the requirement. As there will be subsidies from the ministries. That was shared at the recent kopi-talk session. You can ask for more information when you attend the upcoming P1 Orientation in Nov.

Regards,
Astee

Hi djskoh,


Welcome to the group and the big family of TGPS. Though I don’t really have experience like yours and the aided lesson TGPS teachers gave, I heard there is indeed one. If there is no reply from other parents here, you can bring your DS to the orientation day so that he gets to meet his FT and classmates before school open. You can also talk to the FT that day or talk to other staffs from school. I am sure TEY will be happy to help and answer your questions.

All the best and come visit us often so we can share and learn together.

Hi djskoh,

My daughter is a late speaker (started talking at 4) and until now I wouldn't say she converses well as a K2 kid. She is still undergoing speech therapy at kkh. So far the kindy teachers are very accommodating and I believe her P1 FT will be too. I believe home support plays a key role. At home, I learnt to rehearse possible scenarios such as knowing how to turn to a page, write name and date, standing up to read a passage. I also rehearsed what she could say to friends in grammatically correct sentences.

You may want to first identify his specific weakness and build on them. If its handwriting, you may want to get him to practice on some penmanship. If it's lack of independence, practice allowing him to pack his things, buy his food, etc.

Hope this is useful :rahrah:
