營造英語的環境 - NO need huge money.

Go to public library, you can borrow many English story books, some with PTH & English CD.

TV - English channel, like Sesame street, ETV, TV news.....

我覺得問題係中中, 朋輩影響, 同太多娛樂, NDS, PSP, MSN, Facebook, all these attracts the youngsters more time in leisure than study.

I would like to share the experience of my boy:

My son nearly 6 in K3, in estate kindergarten. We emphasis English during he grew up.

We borrow many books for him from public library and sometimes bring him to library on Sat or Sun.

He likes reading, especaillly the books about Dinosaurs, and can memorise those long names, even those books not for his age, he will not afraid to read
(maybe only the photos and heading).

All in all, he likes English very much, even he choose interview in English (we know he only speak fairly).

Even we listen Radio, he will ask to change to English Radio.

And he can read (maybe 80%) of a P.4 English Text book (Step up English), and do the C4Cat internet word games.

We believe It all depends the environment for the children, no matter he will be in Chinese or English primary school.
