Re: DGJS Results????????
Dear All:
Sorry for my late reply. I've been busy moving home~!
Below is what I personally consider essential for students who aim to study P1 at English speaking schools successfully, using DGJS as the standard. Hope it helps.
1) The school requires a VERY precise use of vocab. For example, most students would naturally be able to distinguish the difference between similar words even when speaking.
Example 1: bench, chair, sofa, armchair
Example 2: yell, shout, reply, suggest, ask, etc
Many young children in HK tend to be careless in speech when using English. However, girls from this school tend to be quite critical of this.
Example: "I attended my student's b-day party yesterday" (You'd hear it sometimes. But it should be my CLASSMATE, right? If your child used this incorrectly, her friends might pick that up and try to correct her...)
Another issue is that you need to train your girls so that they can explain concepts in English. Terms that you may want to ask her include:
1) vote
2) natural
3) agree VS decide
Next would be sequence and logics. Try asking her how things are done.
Example: 1) How do you plant a flower?
2) What is your weekly schedule?
3) What happens when you visit your family doctor?
See if you girl is able to recall the steps.
Furthermore, you may wish to check if your girl understands what a COMPLETE sentence means. This is especially important when she needs to ask/answer questions.
Finally, see if your girl is able to explain her behaviour in English. Sometimes, conflicts in school is inevitable. If your girl does not know how to explain her behaviour, she may look frustrated when trying to explain things, which may unfortunately be mis-understood as being aggressive.
Hm.. I guess this would be the safety net to look for if you're going to the school in Sept. The requirement is indeed not very high, except that the school really wishes that your girl can "think" in English instead of using "Chinglish". Good luck~!
