Hi jnemummy,

Yes, my dd does that too but not all books, core subjects supposedly to bring back. U can refer to the handout your dd brought home 2 days ago, the topic on 'lockers'.

Hi chubby mum, my dd did not bring back lockers handout. She did not even bring back core subjects or notebook jotting down her homework. She told me she had bring a family picture n write 3 sentences.

jnemummy, the locker topic is in the Form Teacher's Welcome Letter dated 3Jan. Today there's another update to keep 'My Pals Are Here Maths Extra Practice' at home. Don't know if your dd class teacher handed them this note..

Hmmm, diff teacher diff std.

[ohdaddy]

yeah, kinda different for different classes. i also hope they just put the info in the internet in future, and distribute the sheets as backup for those without internet.

[michyms]

My girl’s class had a different instructions, to hand in extra Maths practise and keep Shaping Maths course book at home… Every teacher runs their class differently…


Ohdaddy, Agree that the Internet is a good idea, or perhaps some kind of blog format… Or maybe can email the instructions out to us instead? Currently I have no visibility on what they are teaching in class, so how to revise at home?

[chubby mum]

Well I guess diff teachers really work differently. Not so sure abt getting info from school website. I was browsing thru n not much update on the cca…

Hi KS Mum, thanks for reply.


Anyone know the difference between rythmic gym & artistic gym? Any advice on selection of CCAs?

hi SP Mum

ryth gym is the one where they whip around the ribbons, batons and hoops. art gym is the horse, beams or floor that comes up into us when we misjudge grip, speed or distance. i only knew the difference recently.[/


Hi Ohdaddy, thanks. enlightened but still unable to decide wat fits dd better :slapshead:

KSMUM:

Hi.. can the children request to go to the toilet during class time ? My DD said when she ask to go to the toilet during chinese class, the teacher said \"NO\".

Hi KSMUM,
This really depends on individual teachers. Most teachers don't encourage students to go to the toilet during lessons but if it's really necessay (ie. when the child really can't hold on anymore), they will allow.

I would have thought P1 teachers would be more understanding. Maybe you would like to encourage your DD to go to the toilet before lessons start and during recess, just before recess ends.

Hi michyms and tinkerbelle,


Thanks! My daughter's fever is gone so it's back to school today!

KSMum, it'll be terrible if it's a strict no no! Will let u know if my DD tells me so.

Looking for P1 parents who's living in Yishun. I'm trying to see if I find an alternate travel arrangement for my DD to school. Currently she's the 1st to be picked up by the sch bus at 10:40am and she spends the next 1.5 hrs in it. Hoping to lessen her travelling time by getting a taxi/bus to ferry her. Let me know if anyone is interested.

Cheers!

Hi gorilla,

Great to hear that your DD has recovered and is back in sch. Take care
