chelsi goes for dancing class.
manda, kristy also doesn't like abacus leh she doesn't like to play with that thing. but her mental imaging is excellent i would say. not sure how not-liking abacus will affect her.......... now i have like, 5 different types of materials just for teaching add/minus.

<font color="aa00aa">My colleague mentioned that while abacus is good for mental arithmetic, it's not good for doing Maths during schooling as kids usually derive at the answers without showing any working and marks will be deducted. It may also interfere with what teachers teach.</font>
bbloh, i heard from my neighbour westgrove offering abacus class leh. den he stop sending his child to cma.
"derive at the answers without showing any working"
yes that's y i feel the need to use other materials to combine with abacus/mental maths so she can understand the theory behind it and not blindly give answers.

Actually is not stressing. Is just letting them learn earlier at a relaxed or comfortable pace. All come to absorb at p1 then is really stress for the kids.
My ex coll told me her mindset is also happy childhood for her son. Even when kinder teacher told her Tat her son is slow, she replied nvm son is so small, let him enjoy first. Now she regreted cos her son cannot keep up with the pace.
I can join lunch by the next invitation.
Enjoying my work this week. Lol.
I tink shld encourage kids to speak up in both languages. Gd to start from young. Reply in full sentence instead of a word nia

Yoko, kristy still small. U have still time to slowly guide her. Keep on encouraging her. Can let her understand the story first then she can relay it to the pic.
<font color="aa00aa">yokogi,
LSH didn't have show & tell sessions for Nursery classes? Usually, the English teacher will ask the kid to bring something, e.g. favourite toy, and then "show" the toy to the class and "tell" why s/he like the toy. No other preparation required at their level.</font>

my boy had show & tell session when he was in kinder too.
my MP finally visited our block last nite.. and when she asked us if there is any prob, i told her abt the birds down our block there. it is really a prob and i tend to wakey in the wee hours when the birds wakey.
