How's everyone coping with teaching your children han yu pin yin? Yesterday taught DD till almost want to vomit blood. She kept mixing the u & w and i & y.... I wonder how's her spelling today.


Polaris,
I find it quite good. They go thru the kids' spelling together and they ar very discipline with reagrds to manners and how they wear the NCPS uniform. I am very happy with the centre.

My son attended P1 prep class on chinese with HYPY when he's in K2. I'm glad I did that as now I have an easier time as he is well verse with it already. I encourage parents to do that as your kid will be more confident with it when he enters P1. For NCPS, the 10-day Dec course is not sufficient for them to pick up.

For 'w' & 'u', 'y' & 'i', it has to do with Sheng1 Mu3 and Yun4 Mu3. Also need to teach them the technique where to put the sound '- / v \\'. I also spent a lot of time coaching last yr until he acquire the basic knowledge about HYPY. I know it's going to be a crash course when enters P1 and I am not taking chances.

Talking about the Chinese show & tell, 3 minutes is indeed very long. I came up with 1 script describing 5 people in the family and i realise i am done in 2 minutes. Think need to drag the time by bringing in some tools!

I also headache, how to come up with 3-min speech on such a straightforward topic. Even if I can cook up a long story, dun think my son can remember the entire script. He may just mess it up during the assessment. Should feedback that 3-min is too long for a start.

I agree with Suaku_mum and b2b3m4 about Polaris. That's exactly the reasons why I sent my son there. My main obj is for him to learn to be more independent and well disciplined. It's a bonus that they provide assessments as well as spelling revision. I am also impressed with their friendliness and patience in answering my many questions.

From what I understand is Nan chiau Primary mostly 2B and 2C phrases have to ballot within 1KM. (PV Or Clan)

U can check under :

Primary Schools - Selection and Registration
All About Parent Volunteers (PV)

There's a lot of mummies questions and advises.

Hi, some correction. P2B is for PV, member of SHHK or certified community leader (or grassroots leader). For NCPS, there is no ballot for P2B within 1km (my son went in in this phase with no ballot), ballot for 1-2km, those >2km no chance at all. For P2C, NCPS only accepts applications <1km>1km and subsequent phases.

You mean student can just login and do the quiz anytime? I thought have to wait for teachers to assign tasks to students? I'm confused. Is this the eTutor that we paid for with edusave? Tks.

Hey, don't get stressed abt chinese show & tell! Last yr, I had to scribble a script for DS just an hr b4 sch bcos he failed to mention it until we were on our home from grocery shopping that a.m.! :spank: Luckily it turned out ok. :lol:
R u sure there is a need to memorize the script?

I find it easier & more natural when DS uses his own words & material w me just correcting any structural error but get him to write out the script himself.
