For CL, we would do the following :

1) Revised all the hypy and chinese characters that they have learnt
2) Practise on bi soon.
3) Expose the child to top school papers so that they get a feel of what is expected.
4) For Oral, I got those oral books and revise with them. Eg. how to talk about picture, reading of passage and also answering questions.

For EL :
1) Revise spelling list
2) For Oral, similar with CL.
3) Practise top school papers

Other parents, pls contribute so that we can learn from each other.

Hi,

In Popular, they do have those oral guideline books. It comes with a passage as well as pictures and discussion topics as well too.

FYI, the school will usually distribute the oral guidelines with pictures,etc...

Hi 2818,


Yesterday my DS came back saying that chinese teacher told them that they would be given a few poems to choose 1 to prepare for the oral. Did yours mention about this?

Also, I just realised that there is a term 1 individual progress card in DS's bag. The teacher signed and dated it on 12 Mar. Not sure if it was given out before the 1 week school holiday

Hi lostbunny.


the progress card is back this week, my child had C's throughout, just wonder is this a norm?

as to the poem, no mentioned at all. Do they have to memorise them?

thanks

Is the poem for the story-telling or rather lang du instead of oral?

[lostbunny]

Hi chasingjelly,


I’m not sure. My DS said it was for oral. But then again, he rather bo chap one. Everytime I ask him something, he will say "don’t know".

Hi netserver,
Mine also mostly Cs. But I think this is ok as C refers to satisfactory. My DH says P1 only, no need to expect too much.

[chasingjelly]

I think it depends on trs also. Some trs maybe more generous in grading? Just a guess. I am surprised that my dd was graded C for 'enjoys singing'. :lol:

MMM,


Thank you. I have taken your advice and gotten some oral books from Popular Bookshop.

Can you share with me more about ‘project voice’ in the progress card? My son is a bit weak on this area only.

2818,


Does your ds speak softly? My understanding for ‘able to project voice’ is that the child is able to speak clearly during class time.
