蘇浙小學 vs 真道書院

stseng

My son is in 蘇浙 K3, I am now struggling between the two schools.  Some told me that 真道 is not a good choice due to the recent bad news (直資混賬風波).  What do you think about this?

如果兩間收咗你仔仔, 你會點揀? 原因.  
Thank you!

以你所見間學校都好好, 咁就唔使咁心亂。

I attended 真道 grade 3 students' open classes (science and social studies) and found that:

1.  Teachers aroused students' learning interests by adopting demonstrations (besides teacher's demo, students also had a try), pictures, videos, news clippings, etc to illustrate the theme.

2.  Teachers encouraged students to inquire, answer, and discuss and coordinate among group members.

3.  Majority students were creative, active in participation and had good observation.

4.  Basic knowledge of the theme (energy and climate changed) and words recognition are introduced, and brain storming is led.  

They said they achieved the strengths of activity-based teaching method which include promoting learning interest and critical thinking skill.  However, they pointed out that sometimes it is hard for students to express in writing.  Will it be the weakness of activity-based teaching method?

For sure that if students can't understand or don't have interest, they may have variation.  Therefore, it requires parents and teachers further assistance.  In other words, whichever teaching methods (traditional or activity), contribution among students, parents and teachers is necessary.

在香港這複習地方生活可以多姿多采，不同其他外国那樣，生活單純。
小孩成長，初初可能是比交單純的個性，但當他入讀小學，再上中學後，他會受其他朋輩、週邊曰常事程影响，最後改變很大。所以父母要想盡方法照顧小孩讓他建康成長(當然不是造港孩或公主、皇子)。
個人可能細膽，所以才把小孩放在傳统學校讀書，家長大約知到小學和中學的環境和教學方法，(但從小孩所述，學校已改變了一些)，從而可以幫到他，和向他解釋，希望行一條正確的道路和成長。

又未必嘅，我有個朋友個仔好活潑，唔怕醜，表達能力好強（特別駁嘴）轉數快。佢今年六歲喺偏傳統小學讀小一，成績sofar一般，特別默書好飄忽。朋友想幫佢轉去活動教學嘅小學。但係佢哋睇開個言語治療師（因仔仔兩歲半都唔講嘢，驚佢有自閉）話以佢仔仔嘅情況，應該讀d較有學習規範嘅學校，當然始終佢仔仔而家讀嗰間不是＂太谷＂,而朋友考慮後都覺得有道理，因為活動教學嘅精神另方面係想訓練小朋友自學能力，佢驚佢仔仔未必能夠咁自律。所以你話活動教學係咪適合活潑好動小朋友又似乎唔係一定，又喺嗰句，無嘢係絕對！

Asking questions and participating in group discussion are learning attitude that be trained, but they MAY not be their original character.  九型人格 is talking about his inherent character which must be developed in early stage. It is another topics not discussing in here...

If your kid likes to ask questions and participates in group discussion, putting him/ her to traditional school may not be good.  In Hong Kong, I find the young generation seldom ask questions and express their opinion, this may be the end product from traditional school.

第四,六型,九型一般較內向, 無安全感. 活動教學較少比較, 這些孩子在傳统學校較難發揮.

However I only concern the choice between KCS and Logos......

其實呢個topic應叫活動教學定傳統教學。見有d家長拗到面紅耳熱，其實本人覺得而家兩邊都有學校微調，各取長短，好似九小傳統得嚟都無咁多抄寫功課，王錦煇亦因應家長要求亦加深了少少程度（係有子女在呢兩間學校讀嘅朋友分別同 ...

Do you agree?

活動教學 is more suitable for those children who are energetic, talkative, easily be distracted in class, not like to be pushed to study/ complete repetitive tasks

傳統教學 is more suitable for those who are 自動波 in learning, quite, well disciplined and concentrated

I think if you put your kid in this kind of school.  You have to spend more time monitoring your kid's progress and support if necessary (very often it is required).  The problem is that you do not know where your kid is in and the lack of benchmarking makes you feel uncomfortable.  Do not 100% relying on the school, parent's support is absolutely essential which includes read with your kid everyday.

I believe its standard is quite high, But it may be suitable for some kind of students, not for all kind.....

stseng

After discussing with one Logos parent, I learn that:
1.  their academic level is not as easy as one may think as their standard will not deviate from other schools
2.  for Science, they cover some basic ideas of high level science topics to stimulate the students  
3.  their method of teaching emphasize application rather than memorize

有否看這段? 她並不是只一味埋怨.

……类似的笑话也好，糗事也罢，总能赚我几分笑容，也因此，我发现自己开始慢慢地喜欢上了这群学生。他们中间虽然有不少调皮，但毕竟也有很多听话懂事的，有很多可爱逗人的：有学生会在刚上课的时候热情地把电脑接过去，有学生会在教室门前深深地一鞠躬欢迎我，有学生会在楼道上“MISS 黄、MISS 黄”地大声叫，有学生会在课间的时候帮我捏肩膀捶背，有学生会在自修课的时候偷偷地为我画像，有学生会慷慨地邀我吃薯片……
