Ocean,
Actually I drew up a time-table, but haven't been following it faithfully
Maybe I'll start doing so this week, since I'm trying to offload some of my son's work back to him.
Don't say jiat luck...still have a whole year to go.

Shimmers,
Use Word to create a table.
Start from the time the child returns home, and what you want him to do for the whole day until bedtime at night. For eg, English has grammar/vocab/cloze/comprehension. Maybe Monday to do grammar, Tue to do cloze, etc etc. Allocate some time to rest/play in between.

Wow!! Im impressed..so far Ive not set anythg for my boy..only daily homework and oral..like I asked him questions and he answered,frm there I'll correct him as and whr necessary..
Other than that,he spent his time on drawing a lot! We talked about his drawing or sometimes I'll ask him to write about his drawing,thats about all! A lot of activity is made out of his drawing only..I think I should craft out a time table like you but he comes home frm K2 only at 5pm,sometimes we'll eat out and be back only at 8pm. By then we'll be tired to go more except for his homework and some reading.
joopjoop
I think yes, it would be better for a child to be able to read before his P1. I guess at least he'll be able to read instructions given,he'll benefit a lil more if he's able to read..
This is only my POV..i dont know what other mummies feel, maybe Im wrong?

Shimmers,
With my daughter, it's mostly play for now. Occasionally hubby will teach her Maths. I've yet to start doing work with her.

Hi Pocoyo,
I emailed the sch and they managed to trace my hubby's record =)
If your Hubby is ex-boy of Rulang, I'm guess your child will get in.
Hi joopjoop,
Its best/expected(actually) to be able to read b4 entering P1. P1 teachers dun teach student phonics. That's the basic of learning to read.
Hi Ocean,
I'm one of you regular.. heehee...
Re: Stressful childhood.
IMO, if the child was given a relatively amt of activities since young, they will gradually adapt to it and not feel stressful abt it. If the child is left to play all day, even 1 hr of tuition/homework can be stressful!
My boy currently have a few enrichments. Swimming, Gymnastics, Piano, Art and Chi tuition. Swim n Gym are conducted in sch after sch hrs. All enrichments r requested by him except Chi tuition. Last week, I asked him if he enjoyed all his activities, if dun like can drop out... but guess what? He simply loves every lessons and even requested if he can join his sch cookery class!!! Gotta say NO to him cos his time-table too packed

Don't tempt me about online shopping...I need some advice from you how to buy the stuff. BADLY need retail therapy now, bcos there is no time to go out
Eileen,
My son has a time-table since P1, so he's kinda used to having a routine (with complaints of course). He has swimming every Sunday.

Online shopping and organising spree is very addictive... Sometimes, see thing very cheap, cant resist to buy, and if cant buy organise spree so that i can see the things.

Whahhaaaa...
U let urself relax abit k. At least, I felt that u hv already done alot liao...

Where is your boy taking piano? He has lots of activities
I stopped all my dd's academic enrichments end of last year - phonics, abacus, Chinese. So now she only goes non academic ones like ballet, piano, art. Plan to start her on swimming this year.
Janet
I've a timetable for my dd. Basically after her kindy homework, piano practice, I hope to cover 2 subjects with her. But haven't been following it faithfully

How do you insert that table ? Then I can show you the time table I drew up but never follow. HaHaHa.
So far no spelling for my daughter but simple Maths worksheet every Friday.

Ocean
Ur timetable for your girl looks pretty much like mine..Hahahah.
Just that he has drum on Tues and Phonics on Sun and he goes to sch in the afternoon. So many hrs are burnt, we are left only few hrs before sleep on weekdays
I guess u wont have much of a prob coz girl will eventually grow up being responsible and independant unlike boys..Haizz I got hard time instill all those in my boy..kept forgetting his waterbottle/cap in sch bus and sch! The worst thing he didnt even know tht!!
I told him if he kept being irresponsible of his own stuff, how to proceed to P1??Tsk!!
Janet

Boys are really dependent! Mine forgets to bring his watch/wallet back when we go to mum's place. If we don't follow up, he will leave his homework file behind.

Can you please advise how to insert the timetable here ? Where can I find it ?

Oh..I miss out a lot posting, so busy with works nowaday.End up went back home so tired and can't guide my girls homework.
Here is my elder girl schedule,
Monday-icreative
Thur-Yahama music
Fri-Swimming
Sat-NAFA art
Sun- Chinese lesson and Piano lesson
Any children going for student care? I think my girl will be very tired when she entered P1.
Image if she is in afternoon session and she has to wake up same time with us when we go work so we can send her to student care.
Very worry that too tired for her and end up she can't pay attention in class.

Like you mentioned, I really pity the kids in afternoon session and have to go to student care bcos both parents are working. Actually they can sleep in later.
Preparing children for P1 is not easy, as I've no idea what she has to know. I just use the assessment book to teach her. So I just get grammar and vocab for EL. For Maths, I get that title 'Take off for P1'.

I don't know how to train her to skip that nap.
Just praying hard that the school I put her in will be morning session from P1.

Try to shift her bed time earlier to compensate for no nap. After a while her body clock will adjust
ycys
I email them & waited for 1.5 years before they finally sent me the invitation letter.
With that letter, you can enrol your kids on enrolment day, usually sometime in November

Do you intend to try for music at Nafa?

Re: Nap
My boy started sch in Brunei last Jan. Sch starts @ 7.30-2.15pm(3.15pm if got CCA), hence since last yr, I 'trained' him not to nap and sent him to bed @ 7.30pm. He usually fall asleep ard 8pm. I dun want him to nap after sch cos he had difficult going to bed even @ 10pm and ended up with very cranky the next morning. This yr I let him sleep an hr later which is 8.30pm cos he has to go homework/piano practice after dinner.

I will adjust her sleeping time after I've registered her for P1...hopefully it is morning session, then she can continue to have her afternoon nap. Pray hard that the school I register her in is morning session from P1.

Hi
I have a highly anxiety boy who worries a lot and tends to be very afraid of new place. I extremely worry abt P1. Already at K2, he still cried and put up a strong fight not to go to school. Anybody has such issue?

Serena,
Your boy has a separation anxiety. My son was like that in Nursery/K1. When you bring him to kindergarten, you have to pass him to the teacher and leave. Tell him gently you will pick him up when school ends. Don't look back or it will be harder on him and also for you. He will cry very loudly and it's very heartache for you.
I got my hubby to send the kids to kindergarten and they did not put up a fight or cry. However, I picked them up after school. Would you like to get your hubby to send him to school instead?

i have a son also going P1 next yr. So pop in to join u all.
I saw that many of you enrolling into Rulang Pri? I plan to send my son there too, also living near Jurong point, hubby also old boy.. in a similar situation as Pocoyo.
Kinda worry cos dont know how to prepare my son for P1.. he is currently in a full day child care..hopefully it is sufficient. Might send him to Kumon for some foundation training.
wat i worry most is... he writes super slow.. always erase n write cos he wants it perfect. how to resolve this prob? anyone can help?

If hubby is former student, then I guess you should have no problems registering son under Phase 2A. Parents like us are getting kancheong as it approaches July.
Your son is amazingly neat...my boy's handwriting is atricious. No matter how I erased and make him write again, it is still as untidy. Maybe you can tell him gently that his handwriting is very nice and there is no need to erase as he will be wasting time doing so.
