Hi Crester,
My gal told me her geo teacher say self-learning for Chapter 4, 5 n 6. I think basically map-reading . Not sure if itz her class only. Have been too bz back home so no chance to call sch yet. Think itz gd idea for them to do some self-study on simple topics instead of spoon-feeding.[/quote]
Hi,
To self -study these topics still not easy for Sec 1 newbies. Need lots of discipline. Yr daughter's class must be very independent n intellectual.
My girl's class to self study only Chpt 6. Guess her Geog teacher no confidence in this class to do their own self study, in case they stray.

Her class is not the top 2 class. Geo teacher is only a relief teacher, probably datz y so relax lor. Hopefully, they get a perm geo teacher nxt semester. The last class test, i think like more than 1/2 the class failed. :slapshead:
Crester:Hi Crester,Hi Sotongmummy,Crester:Sotongmummy,
Abt the self study of subject- Geog, the teacher will go through with the class. Teacher perhaps wants to cultivate independent learning.
Update us after yr call.
Don't worry abt Chinese progress, besides Chinese Textbk, sch is also exposing St Nicks pupils to Chinese Literature text which they hv bou.

Crester:Thanks for the info.Yes, CA2 will be 8/5 according to calendar. But test scope isn't out yet. Shd be testing some Term 1 (topics not tested during CA1)and the bulk from Term 2. By studying these topics won't go wrong.Sotongmummy:Hiii
Can anyone advise if there's any SA or CA coming? Time- table for tests out already?
I just realised that my gal's chinese teacher never get the gals to do 作业。So far this term only 1 成语 worksheet n 私函 done。Is this a norm???
Heard that the gals have to self-study on 2 chapters of Geog which is going to b tested too. :nailbite:
There is Chinese lesson daily. Chinese teacher gets class to finish most wksheets in sch. In fact, mine just had a Chinese Test yesterday n Lit Test today.
Self study 2 Geo chapters-why? Any reason given? Is it E-learning?
Hiii

i heard that they have change a new principal this year. The principal formally from Woodlands Primary School. Maybe it will be better?? But teachers’ turnover is very common lor, even in my elder’s pri sch.
Pooh Bear:Hi Pooh Bear,Hi folks:
my DS is now in NUS High. Competition is much higher, well, that's expected. He has to strive to do his best, since I can't coach him anymore. Too difficult for me now.
My younger DS is also in Challenge class. Err...i don't know what's recipe to get into Challenge. I can only say that teachers count a lot in the final 100m dash. Can be pretty stressful for kids in P6. Lots of moral support needed. This year, the school has started Maths Olympia classes for selected kids. I am surprised since my older DS did not have such classes previously, whereas other schools already have such schemes. There are pros and cons in having such \"enrichment\" classes, which I have mixed feelings. Anyway younger DS enjoys it so I let it be. Ultimately we have to \"hear\" what the kids want and can do.
Crester:My gal says no 习字 for her class.Hi mummies,
Can I check for Chinese/Higher Ch, do yr girl have to practise writing the Chinese characters from text bk on a Xi Zi Exercise Book like in Pri sch ?
Thank you.
Hip Hip Hooray!!!! :rahrah:
Today is the last paper for CA.
