Your DD how to choose CCA?thx
For my dd, sports CCAs are out of the question, because she tires easily. We showed her the list of CCAs on the school portal and let her choose. -
my daughter just made herCCA choice last weekend via MC online.
She said P 5 Jade is the top class for her level.
25 Jan will hv T with P session to talk about DSA. -
MY gal was selected for Atistic Gym - not sure shld i enroll her for it???
too tough for a small Build like her???
heard required to practise 3 times per week when comes near to competition??
Spoke to her, she expressed her interest in it, however, im afraid might affect her studies?
The Gym on thursday 1:45 - 2:45, when do they do after that if they re waiting for sch bus to come at 4pm -

Is she proactive/independant enough to get started on her homework for the day? Or she can take along a library book to read. Else, you can send an extra snack box with her and let her have that. -
My dd is in P2 and she hardly has any homework. Is it the same for the rest?
-
If they finish their work in class, there may not be much homework. It is usually the slow ones, like my dd, who have to bring home stuff to complete. But on weekends everyone should bring home a maths/logic weekend assignment.

It all depends on what kind of work that are slated in a particular school term. If they’re a set of worksheets from one package, then the students are required to complete part of it as homework. Same goes for all the school’s Workbooks. It’s healthy for students to be given some homeworks.

The problem, though, is that many school-going children in Singapore also attend tuition classes. And most parents also buy assessment books to be completed at home. So, between homework, and (sometimes) tuition and (usually) assessment books and popular exam papers, the poor children end up doing academic work for the majority of their day.
I feel that school is already long enough (7-8 hours) for school work to be covered to an adequate extent. So I, for one, would prefer not to have my dd get any homework at all. -

As long as your dd understands her work in school (you will know through class assignments and those mini tests), there's no need for homework. -

Are you agreeing only on behalf of my dd, or on behalf of all the little girls in CHIJ (Kellock)? :evil:
