Yes, I totally agree that "key words" are the key. Pardon the punt. I spent a lot of time with my ds to get him in the habit and discipline of using the keys words. Though he understood the concepts, he loss points using his own words.

RE: Any websites to teach science to kids?
Hello,
I know the question was for websites. But if you are open to DVDs, I personally find \"Bill Nye the Science Guy\" pretty good. My 3 kids always enjoy them and look it in the library.
It's very entertaining (sometimes silly) but yet educational. We frequent Queenstown library and easily find. I'm not sure about the other libraries in Singapore.

RE: CHIJ (Kellock)
nansk:
Yes, this is normal for Kellock. I agree so many after-school enrichment activities are quite unnecessary at P1-P2. It is quite tiring for the girls, esp in P1, when they are just getting used to longer school days.[quote]My only girl is going on P1 to P2 in Kellock. I notice that the school have her bring back lots of enrichment activities brochures when in P1. My older p4 boy in a boy's school don't get so much.
Being a P1 girl, she's like wanting to try, do and have all these stuff ... a little bit distracting sometimes.
Is this normal for Kellock and will it continue in P2 onwards? Anyone knows?
You can choose not to sign up for the activities. Although your dd may feel a bit disappointed initially, she will soon forget the feeling. Believe me, you will not deprive her of any \"valuable experience\" in life by not signing up for after-school enrichment activities in P1-P2.[/quote]
Thanks nansk. Guess I just have to manage the girl's expectations ... -
