各位，你們好！

其實小學從P3開始就會用英語來教數學，所以各位根本不需要發動什麼。如果各位多一點參與學校的活動，多一點與學校溝通，很多問題就不會發生了。

發表就可以, 不會發動, 一切隨緣, 但如學生程度可以的話, 小學以英語教授數學也是一個好提議.

請問puikiufriend, "從P3開始就會用英語來教數學" 的意思是不是課本是英語而老師又是英語授課?

puikiufriend

應該這樣說書還是中文的，慢慢輔以英文。

Thank you.

咁樣睇呢自己要早D比孩子接觸數學的英文名詞.

以下故事與奈宗教無關:
有個人拜佛，天天在南海的普陀寺燒香祈禱，渴望著能夠見上觀音菩薩一面，這一天觀音菩薩終於現身了，那個人高興得不得了，叩了無數個頭。
突然，他就發出了一個奇怪的念頭，他問觀音菩薩：[觀音菩薩，您也拜佛嗎？]
觀音菩薩答道：[當然拜啊！]
那個人又問了：[您拜的是哪尊佛？]
觀音答道：[觀音菩薩。]
那個人就糊塗了，再問：[你自己不就是觀音菩薩嗎？]
觀音菩薩笑著答道：[是呀，求人不如求己呀！]

以下也與宗教無關,某地財神廟門前對聯：

只有幾文錢,你也求他也求,給誰是好;
不做半點事,朝也拜夕也拜,教我為難。


意思也是求人不如求己。

不用擔心，其實P2的小孩已經知道什麼是minus 什麼是plus. 另外，根據學校的計劃到P4時，數學就以英文為主，相信他們很快就能掌握。

I know that the English standards of PKC teachers are very high and they are very professional.

I also know that the Putonghua standards of PKC students are generally better than other most students from traditional school.

What I don't know is whether most parents like the school to put in more emphasis in English and whether the school is planning to put in more English for students.

I would however guess that if PKC were to announce more English emphasis in their curriculum, more students with stronger English background will enter PKC, which will eventually lead to more English emphasis, which will then attract more academically good students ....  This is another version of the theory of reflexivity by a famous contemporary philanthropist.

When the reputation of PKC is pushed up even higher, the benefits will be shared by present students and their parents.  Interested parties should at least give this suggestion some thought.

學校或 PTA在下年可否建議一些暑期班, 以讓學生可按興趣在空閒時多參與一些活動, 不論是體藝或術課也好, 給家長多一些資料各選擇.

actually we were able to voice out some suggestions for summer activities and the sports company were offering those.  Sadly at the end there were not many students (we wanted to do day camps at school so we do not need to arrange pick-ups for one hour or two hour activities, but from 9am - 4pm).  I was enrolling all my kids to the camps but sounds like there were not enough kids so they had to cancel.  I wonder for families who live far away (and there are quite many who do not live in Shatin) it would be quite difficult to organize pick ups during summer time.

You are right. Day camp is a better idea in Summer holidays.  

But at the time when I considered joining the school day camp or not, I was worried about the quality of non-sports activities.  Frankly I did not know whether they are good or not.  Perhaps they would be good, but I had no way to find out.

Eventually, I decided to put my child in other more popular English learning day camps elsewhere.  The other thing is that the school day camp was quite expensive.

But honestly, the school sport company is good in swimming classes.  Maybe that is why they still have swimming classes in Summer.

bjdadishe

If day camps can be held in PKC, classmates or schoolmates could play and learn together.  That would be much better than sending kids elsewhere.

But...

我都好贊成有暑期班,不過正如有家長所講,住得比較遠的小朋友就難以參加,所以如果可以安排埋校車就very good啦

如參加人數不多, 估計安排校車成本較貴而導致每程車費太貴, 可能考慮在幾個定點安排校車(大圍, 荃灣, 大埔)

Probably we can submit this suggestion for next year!  Hopefully the day camp can be organized and I do not need to send the kids to various different things at different times and locations!  I originally planned to send all 3 kids to these camps for 2 weeks arh!  actually I think it was $1000 per week per person so for 5 days with sports and other things to play and learn, it's not too expensive!  Just one swimming lesson is $100 right!

I made a note of the fees they charged for the following period:

7月 28日至8月8日 (星期一至五
兩星期共10天全日)
HK$4800

When you are sending 3 children for 2 weeks, it is $14,400, unless my interpretation or notes are inaccurate.

But anyway, it’s over.
I wish they made the presentation clearer and course fee cheaper next year.
That being said, worries about the non-sports teachers’ credentials are still there.

請各媽咪指教：我很想小女可入培喬小學，請問培喬收那些幼稚園畢業生，面試考什么，單獨或家長陪同，有否天才表演，英語、普通話或廣東話對答？
...

什麼幼稚園畢業生都有，面試考什么年年都變，形形色色，任何人講的都可能不對, 告訴你上年 [中石油] 走勢很好, 對你今年的決定毫無幫助亦可能誤導, 還是多讓孩子多學點英語、普通話, 考到考不到對也對她有用.

hjm

Yeah, probably you're right...so it's around $400 a day...but you see, if I need to put them to swimming lesson, badminton lesson everyday, it could easily be $200 per day already!  I really like day camps because then they can spend a long time there (really no body to look after them at home! we cannot depend on helpers....) and do whatever!  Afterall there is sports and other activities so I still believe $400 a day is OK.  I sent my boy to ESP sports camp last year and for one week, it was $4400.
