Hi Parents,

My girl told me that a girl in her class threw up in the washroom 2 days ago.  If she's your girl, wish her getting better now!:)

So, the quiz may be just to match the items with the appropriate French words.  I am a bit relax as spelling is not required.  Thanks.

Dear monkeydad,
same as Japanese this term, they need to know how to greet someone, numbers, colours & school items.
I think that the teacher will re-create another quiz paper for it. It is quite easy. Children do not need to memorize the spelling of the words.

BTW, my daughter said that some of the students were transferred to other group to study. I think that the regrouping is not very serious so that the children will not feel uncomfortable for the regrouping.

Little duck / Sara,

G2 is studying French this term.  I heard G1 had quiz / dictation on this.  Kindly provide some info / details as I need to learn those first.  Many thanks.

sara,

That's my plan too...we'll just write the title and the other details for those asking them to do puppet show or games!

BTW,
I don't know how to do some reading reports,
e.g. to do a puppet show....to play a game....
may be my daughter will only write something on the book report as usual.....

Hi monkeydad,

For the English reading journal, same as Sara, I don't know the min number of books we have to complete but we plan to finish all.  Actually my girl quite likes reading and she can handle the reading all by herself (as far as I know, her classmates' reading skill is pretty good as well).  The only thing I need to do is to guide her how to answer the questions in the journal.

Let's keep it up to keep on both the Eng and Chi reading scheme!

Little duck,

After returning the blue sheet, I find the green sheet - to finish reading 40 books by Feb 3, 2009.  It seems that it is an on-going program.

bblaw,

You question is a bit vague.  The English standard of P1 students at the moment depends very much on (1) their respective foundation prior to P1 and (2) progress made in the 1st 3 months of th P1.  This is why the school divides the students in 3 groups according to their respective language proficiency level.

The NET teacher encourages the kids to talk and write during the class.  There is not much English homework as most of the work is done in class.  

There is dictation once a month / every 3 weeks in the 1st term.  

Students are required to read story books and finish the book reports in different formats set by the school.  For P1, it is recommended to finish 15 books in 2-3 months time (almost one book a week) and mandatorily no less than 5.  This is the option of parents to decide where they want their kids to be up to.

Students will do about 3 story writings of about 50 words each in each term (about 2-1/2 month per term, 3 terms a year).

Students are required to do 2 pieces of high language content project work on their own each term.

Dear mons,
Can u give more detail about the standard of their English?

sara

Dear Monkeydad,
I don't know how many pieces of reading reports are required to be finished by students before 21 Dec., I only know that there are 15 kinds of reading reports in the reading Journal, so I decide to ask my daughter to finish all.....
In fact, my daughter cannot follow the instructions and cannot answer the questions in the reading journal and she only writes down something about the book.....I only let her to do them by herself....so the journal is very messy but seems to be interesting to her....

monkeydad

Little duck,

It is definitely for the benefits of our kids if we can do it / insist doing it.

By the way, can you advise the English journal requirement (# of books) for G1.  The class teacher of G2 requires above 5.  My boy finished 5 already and we would try to complete the 10-12.

little-duck

pink-I,

THANKS for letting me know that the workbook was returned on Fri only.  So it may have a chance that Ms Wang didn't give the workbook back to my girl (since I didn't find it from her school bag on Fri night).  I'll call Ms Wang tomorrow anyway!

For the Chinese reading, we have finished 40 stories (sometimes it has a few stories in a book and we counted the reading by story but not by book) and returned the blue sheet back to the teacher already.
