Hi. My dd’s teacher plan for her to go for practical grade 3 next year. But I notice that she neglect the theory part as there is not enough time. I thought of go learning it from a teacher and take the examine myself and then teach her until grade 5. Reason being flexible in timing so that I can teach her during school holidays and weekends.


May I know if this is a feasible option for someone like me who don’t have classical music background? I did play a few years in the Chinese Orchestra during my secondary school days but then the notes were just numbers.

Hi. I notice that most primary schools have switch to single sessions. But are there still schools that operates on the morning and after sessions in the east side?

Been sahm for 15 yrs. Just saw this thread and pop in to say hi to all here.

I think you should also education yourself on the criterior to qualify for promotions to Sec 5 as well. Not easy I think.

May I know where is the teacher teaching at? Is the teacher a lady? Does the teacher travel to the students place?

I ask my kids to write down all the words in hypy. This way they can self learn and self tingxie first b4 i test them. They learn a few new ones everyday and add in those learned previously.

[quote=\"janet88\"]son was in charge of photography and editing. it takes up a lot of time.

whenever there was an event like cross country or some VIP visiting the school, he would be involved. I am so relieved he doesn't have to do all this now.

same here.

not to mention some teachers will ask him to do photography of their ccas.[/quote]yalor. Exactly. Anyway now he is in the mist of compile all his work including school magazines, phamplets, photos, etc that contains his work, so that it becomes his own port folio. Who knows it may come in useful when in need.

Unfortunately, he is not allowed to step down until April.


This is the practice that he has to follow.

My girl is in sec 1 this year. She is elected as class vice chairman and soon teacher put in charge of decorating the notice board. Yesterday she came back with a consent form for leadership training which we have to pay for. And no point will be awarded for attending. That was the last straw. DH gave her a lecture of what we would do if this kind of thing happens in the adult world.

Saying no and playing taichi inorder not to be overload with unreasonble/overwhelming expectations is also an important set of skill that the kid might as well learn early.

Son is in Sec 4 this year n he is still very busy with his CCA.



:mad:

My son is in infocomm too. In his school he specializes in photography which is also part of the club. After the Sec 1 camp, which he was one of them on photography duty, his teacher actually advise him to push down all cca responsibilities to the lower sec so that he can concentrate on exams.

Hope this helps.
