      My dd is in the dance club and her CCA is on Tuesday. She was told by the CCA teacher that she can be in her PE attire for the rest of her day even there was any PE. Can anyone confirm that ? If it is true, then life is easier for me as i don’t need pack her school uniform for her.

        Hey ksmum,
        Yes, the gals can wear PE attire even when there is no PE. However, there is a pix taking for ezlink card tomorrow, so everyone has to wear uniform as I understand from my gal.

          hi KSMUM

          i think it depends on the class/teacher. my kid was told to change into uniform when it was not a pe day after her friday morning cca.

            Just confirm with the FT.. she allow the girls to be in their PE attire due to CCA. This is great .. then my dd will have more time to settle down and have lunch.

                Replace \"is\" with \"=\".


                Replace \"more\" or \"less\" with \"+\" or \"-\" accordingly.

                \"less\" is tricky, you need to reverse the numbers.
                hi,
                hijacked this from another thread. I guess this is also easy to understand.
                PiggyLalala:
                Have posted this before in another thread. You may want to consider the method below.

                Solving questions on 'more than' and 'less than' sums

                Type 1
                _______ is 5 less than 12.
                Cover up 5. The question will then be read as ______ is less than 12. Therefore _____is the smaller number. To find the smaller number, we always need to subtract. The answer is then 12 - 5 = 7.

                Similarly
                _______ is 2 more than 12
                Cover up 2 again. The question will then be read as ______ is more than 12. Therefore ____ is the bigger number. To find the bigger number, we always need to add. The answer is then 12 + 2 = 14.

                Type 2
                3 is 4 less than ____
                Cover up 4. The question will then be read as 3 is less than ______. Therefore 3 is the smaller number and ______ is the bigger number. To find the bigger number, we always need to add. Therefore the answer is 3+ 4 = 7

                10 is 6 more than _____
                Similarly cover up 6. The question will then be read as 10 is more than ______. Therefore 10 is the bigger number and ______ is the smaller number. To find the smaller number, we always need to subtract. Therefore the answer is 10 -6 = 4

                Type C
                2 is ___ less than 10.
                In this question, we are comparing the 2 numbers, 2 and 10. 2 is less than 10 but by how much? To find the answer, we use the bigger number minus the smaller number, that is, 10 - 2 = 8.

                10 is ______ more than 4.
                In this question, we are comparing the 2 numbers, 10 and 4.
                10 is more than 4 but by how much? To find the answer, we again use the bigger number minus the smaller number, that is, 10 - 4 = 6.

                Hope you can understand my solution...

                  My DD’s FT also allows PE attire on days when there’s CCA. She mentioned to hubby, exception for P1 cos they might have difficulty changing to pinafore. Anyway, DD changed into pinafore cos she finds it too warm dressed in PE attire. Taught her how to do the zip up and she asked a friend to button for her.

                    How does the child know which no to cover? Is there a pattern?
