CKY 家長請幫忙

jeffmon

我兒將於９月入讀P.1,請問:

1. 小朋友同家後,会否因不用做功課OR不用温習而較懶散?
2. 如因經濟有问題而逼迫退學,是否難以融入傳統小學?
3.我尚有一幼子(3歲),準備讀傳統小學,這样安排会否对他们造成很大差異?家裡文化也有很大距離, 如何是好?請幫忙.

謝謝

Hi Jeffmom,

I have a very similar scenario as yours.  My daughter was in CKY p1.  I also have a little kid in kindergarten stage.  Hope the following sharings would help.

1. CKY kids do have homeworks though the volume is comparatively smaller.  Most of them are readings.  I don't see her being laid back as her interest in reading was so strong after joining CKY that she read a lot during her free time.  

2. If you really encounter any financial difficulties after joining, you may try applying for school financial assistance.  Afterall, Po Leung Kuk is a charitable association.  If you opt for switching back to mainstream schools, I reckon there would not be any problem academically.  However, it may take a while for him to adapt himself as the way of teaching, school environment, and culture are all different.

3. I also have your dilemma.  However, I would plan to send my younger kid to other activity-based DSS if not CKY (though CKY is still my first choice), perhaps, at the expenses of not going out for overseas vacation or eating out...  I think kid's education comes before other entertainment or enjoyment.  Besides, you can save your money for any other tutorial class after joining because the CKY Principal discourages it so much and I don't see the need as well.

1.        會,不過小一之嘛,吾駛咁緊張,重有十幾年書要讀,俾D空間佢地。 驚無野做可以安排多D興趣班殺時間,大家開心。小一基本上係好少功課,一個星期四、五樣啦;小二開始做project同小一差好遠,到時你會懷念小一的時光。最需要家長時間既功課係陪太子讀書,例如讀reader。CKY對功課既態度係無為而治, 吾做都得。不過入得CKY既家長好少會吾理小朋友。 話時話, 家長有冇擺時間落小朋友度好容易見, 班中最好和最差的可以相差好遠。
2.        吾知。不過船到橋頭自然直,吾担心得咁多喇,可能今日中六合彩呢。轉學習模式都係一種鍛鍊。
3.        無硏究,睇性格啦。傳統小學我覺得啱D專注力同吸收力強小朋友。有D家長為方便照顧會揀同一間學校,有好有吾好。

答不到2 和3
有關1：
孩子懶散與否，不在乎是甚麼學校，只在乎家長
我相信傳統或活動教學的學校都會有勤力和懶散的學生

可以說，如果你是一個很喜歡又有時間和孩子一齊學習的人
在CKY你會如魚得水，不用看著孩子只是抄抄寫寫copybooking
而去做一些有趣的功課，讀書給孩子聽，練習樂器

但如果你是沒有時間陪孩子一齊學習的人
你的孩子會比任何學校的學生更容易懶散
(CKY 太 free 了)

所以，正如EdT說：班中最好和最差的可以相差好遠
（例如：校方是按孩子的語言能力分配圖書，有些學生進步很快，有些停滯不前，經過小一後，我孩子的小二班，英文閱讀能力由Level 6 至 Level 18都有, 個gap真係好大)

小一時，校方已把我孩子訓練成書虫
（功課和温習主要是閱讀）
他習慣後，現在在家沒有功課時，就會主動去閱讀、閱讀和閱讀
家長（我）除了陪太子讀書（校內功課）
還要不斷俾錢（買書）同埋行街（去書局和圖書館）
