教學模式(重啟發? 教授?)

bamama

請問SMC的教學, 以啟發&討論為主, 還是以教授為主,啟發為副? 特別是高小以後, 因測驗,功課甚多, 教學會否很趕, 所以會以教授為主? 還是兩者可取得平衡?

心急媽媽上

另我囡都有係出面補英文GRAMMER, 始終佢亞媽我係讀傳統學校出身, 佢學校連正規英文教材都無, 我就真係唔多慣....但....補左3年....出名學既....都配合唔到學校的, 課程又唔夾...其實真係唔使補, 完全覺得SAI 錢...但囡又話補習班好玩, 我似局住繼續...

選得呢間學校, 真係要放低我地以前學校嗰套...佢地英文教法近似國際學校, 人地都係初小唔教文法架, 識講識聽咪識寫囉...

見囡日日返學開心(好似去玩咁), 我都唔理得咁多, 當初就係為左想佢有個開心童年同愉快學習環境先揀佢嘛...證明無揀錯囉!

之前一年考3次試, 範圍唔多, 平時有聽書, 先前QUIZ 又溫左啲, 到考試時前一日係咁温都攪得掂! 相對傳統學校一日温完考試範圍應該無可能!

但今年轉左2測2考...我都唔知點囉? 無眼睇佢, 合格未算囉! 好緊張成績的家長呢間學校唔啱您!

你個仔好叻呀!

我個女在學校英文係讀G2,出去上同年齡的英文course一定係最好那批! 我個女小四,之前考ket拿9x分.

先評估自己程度，才決定需要補習呢？我曾想把小兒去補習，經評估後是要去中學組，那麼，我還需要補嗎？SMC建議自然學習語言，多看書，文法自然增長。還有SMC的英文科是沒有課本，只有自編敎材，但內容和深度，請嘗試自己閱讀，不會比其他學校差。學校賣點是建立語境，增加學習動機。

多謝你們的解答！為我擔心嘅心情舒解了很多很多。話須如此，我亦不敢怠慢，為他選擇了一間補習社專補英文grammar, 希望打好個底。成績表快出了，我好緊張呀！

以一個小三學生,文法可能不太好,及完全無懆練或做卷都有合格.
我想學校的語境,比到很大的幫助.
我相信我兒是日常學習中得到,這是啟發的好處.

sampapa

相等於我們的中文,沒有特別說文法,但我們都自然地會用.
而英文都有相似的地方.我兒現小三,他都會有文法錯誤.
文法是要學,但不見議死記死背,學校的語境必有所益.自然會提升的.
就快出成績表,你們會緊張嗎?我兒無反應,但我就擔心,

我個女grammar勁多mistake,但係出去考cambridge試, 又可以攞到好高分! 證明左學英文除左學grammar外,好多野都係要"浸"出來,單是佢既講英語口音, 聽力及理解能力,係一般學校唔會培養到的! 但當然,其他科目就好睇個小朋友既能力與耐力啦!

Kiu-mummy,Based on the subject briefing, P.1-.4 will be guided to notice grammar rules , but not until P.5 to P.6, there will be more explicit teaching of Grammar.  But I don't worry about this.  I can see my daughter applied some complex sentence structure in free writing.  Listening, Speaking, reading and writing.  . . we learn language in that order.  If they have solid foundation in the first 3 steps, I don't think writing would be a problem.

Ageed. Too concentrated on grammar is not good for the kids. Building up the phrases or vocaburay and use of English in daily life, speaking, will be more effective to learn English. My son's school is not emphasized in the grammar, but more in writing and journals, reading and speaking. I realized my son has learnt the basic "grammar rule" during the daily school life and homeworks without even knowing he unconsciously learnt the rules.

No la, 我個女讀津小，津校太著重grammar, 而香港既學生英文詞彙好弱（一個曾教過中小學的native English teacher同我講既）英文會話都好弱。佢地NET教學方式主要係聽講，都吾prefer 去教grammar, 因為小朋友既英語程度去返咁上下時，佢地自然會明白英文grammar 有一個特定既rule.

例如：津校英中面試，有幸兩間區內英中都有分去interview. 當group discussion 時（用英文），已經好明顯會話能力有幾大既分別。

各位同校家長你們好！我仔今年升小三了，但我開始憂慮他升上小三後的英文程度。過去兩年喺學校的學習生活，真的感受到學校提供了很多多元化的課程，不論學術上或課外活動上，也比其他學校優勝。但也有另一個問題困擾着我，就是總覺得英文課教的文法，比起其他津校落後（個人感覺）。相比起我朋友的仔女，他們在小一或小二上學期已學了simple present tense and present continuous tense, 但我揭完亞仔這兩年的英文課本，也找不到有學這兩種時式的內容。而我也有在坊間買一些小二文法練習給他做，他好像不太懂得在verb 後要加s, es, 轉ies等等。
請問同校的家長們，你們的小朋友怎樣學習文法呢？
謝謝！

Thanks you for sharing,very useful

I had compared the language policy between TSL and SMC before.

For TSL, Japanese & French only, and the P6 student (in Chinese stream) can speak simple French,such as ordering food in French restaurant, and simple Japanese conversation.

For SMC, trial of 4 Language and going in depth in one particular language in P3 and secondary session. Seems more serious as to language. I think they have to consider about some non-Chinese student that they all union basic learning of language by English. Actually, German, Spanish and French words are based on English letters, except Jananese, its rare to use Romaji (English) in beginner level.
Anyway it's good and fair for kids In test or exam, disregarding their races.

Hi Miss N,

You think the standard of their third language is too easy ?

For P.1 and P.2, the students just have a taste of what the language looks like, 1 language per term.  Starting from P.3 onward the foreign language lessons are more serious and will prepare them for public exam in early secondary.  I don't think that's easy.

It's more like arousing their interest in P.1 and P.2, and prepare them to dive in starting P.3
