Re: 保良局蔡繼有 vs 優才
CYCmama:
My kid doesn't like the MTH research guide as well. We bought one only, because he needed to do a project on sea creature.
I also asked my kid whether he did understand the stories, because of so many vocabulary that even I don't recognise. He said, from the proceedings of the story and the whole sentence, he can guess the meanings.
Sammymother:
Thanks for the good news. But it is too late.... I bought the books already. My kid started reading MTH in he beginning of P2. The series is about adventure which most boys like, may not be the case for the gals.
For Geronimo Stilton 老鼠記者, many kids like it because of the colorful layout. Check here for content:

The way I encourage my kid to read: Firstly, I let him pick any books he likes. I won't push him to read those he doesn't like. Secondly, I read the first two books of the series to him, teaching him some difficult words in the books. Those new words are usually repeated in later series.
P.S. This thread is about 蔡繼有 vs 優才. I don't know much about 優才. Many CKY parents talk about the good side of CKY, but I would also like to address CKY on the other angle, so that the parents of potential students can make their own judgment.
I can only use my kid as an example, as I cannot represent all parents.
CKY kids are strong in languages – both English and Putonghua. But,
1] my kid's handwriting is poor, maybe it is because the school does not encouraging copybooking. However, all of my ABC nieces and nephews in US were also very poor in handwriting when they were young (my American boss' handwriting is also unreadable too!) Perhaps, foreign teachers are less concern about handwriting than Chinese traditional teachers.
2] my kid's Chinese reading skill is OK, but he is weak in writing the Chinese words. It is reasonable, because Chinese is 方塊字, requiring you to memorize the words. Not like English you can use phonics to make up the word. The way of CKY's Chinese teaching is to ask students to read/memorize the poems and the meanings, with less emphasis on writing the words. So, students can recognize the words when they read across them, but they may have difficulty to write (already say - no copybooking in CKY. Remember the old days when we needed to do a lot of copybooking at our young age to learn Chinese?). However, I feel fine, and I believe that, as long as he reads more Chinese books, he recognizes the words again and again, he will know how to write them.
3] CKY is very free, so students are having very happy school life. But, it is easy to lose control sometimes. My kid, and some of his classmates, are really 大顛大肺 when they are playing. They enjoy playing indeed. And, sometimes I complain my kid for his “顛顛得得” and “行路都好像跳咁”. I am ok with his overall behaviour (coz my ABC nieces and nephews performed the same way when they were young), but some traditional parents may wish their kids 規規矩矩, then not accepting the way CKY kids behave) |
