World Class Arena 國際資優能力評估測試

KWT

Dear all,

原來可以選擇中文或英文題目作答.

有時我覺得若小朋友喜歡及enjoy做數,就好像喜歡踢足球,游泳一樣,沒有什麼不好.不過,大人一定要小心及有責任為小朋友制定一套平衡動靜的活動,不要以偏蓋全,得小小而失多多.

Full Time mama,

That 's good since your kid can practise his instrument himself. For my son, aged 8, is doing grade 2 in his piano. However, it is me to wet floor because I need to beg him to practise! By the way, how old is your son and what instrument he is playing? Could you share the ways you encourage him to practise?

Any BK parent's kid attended the test? What's the result?

My boy just got the result!

KWT

Dear JP,

Congratulations.  Would you share your experience?  As how you kid prepared the exam.  Any past papers or related exercises?  I have deep interest to know.  

Please PM.  Thanks a lot.

JP

KWT,

Thanks! I just downloaded some sample papers from their website and got some other sample papers from my friend whose kid is studying in 臻美 which provided some training courses for their students. My boy only spent < 1 hr in preparing the test.

I'm not sure about the alleged authority of the test---worldwide recognised test for gifted kids in Maths! My personal impression about the organiser is ---they're a bit commercial in promoting their profit-making courses.

Hi JP,

I am interested too. Can you pass me the website address? By the way, how can my son get his paper checked after doing it?

JP

全職mama 寫道:
Take it easy.

計數，也可以看成為課外活動的一種。有很多小朋友放學後，都會用上一至兩小時於課外活動上，如：游泳、樂器…等。

大人覺得佢地冇得休息，但佢地可能好enjoy呢！只要他們有興趣，既益智又能培養自信心，何樂而不為呢！

小兒每天也花上一至兩小時練習樂器。有時我覺得太忙，叫佢停練一次，佢就喊:cry:；叫佢唔好考樂隊，佢仲喊到成地濕:cry:。在他的心目中，練習樂器，除了帶給他優越感外，也是娛樂的一種。

hhma,

I've already said that the organiser did NOT invite us to the press conference, so James wasn't there!

My son attend the Maths test and problem sloving test. Merit in Maths and Pass in PS. Not too good! How about yours?  Did you receive the invitation for the course which invite the Dist and Merit child to join ? $3xxx too expensive... Do you think I should let my son to take the test again...?

JP

bettymomo,

Why do you intend to let your son re-sit for the test? You want him to get better result? I'm not going to send my boy for the course provided/"recommended" by the organiser as my purpose of sending my boy for the test has been achieved to a certain extent--- he managed to get a distinction in the Maths Test. My boy is now taking an Olympiad Maths course near our home and he probably will take a maths course provided by his primary school in the coming Sept.

bettymomo

Woo! Distinction! very good. My son get merit only, that why I want to let him try again. But I am query about the recognization of the test. Will the secodnary school recognize the result?  But better than nothing only...

據報導有十間小學參加了這個試驗性的測試，我知道臻美是其中一間，請問其餘九間是什麼學校？

JP

Including DPS, DGJS and Yaumatei Catholic (Hoi Wang Road) etc.

Tommy

JP,

多謝你的資料。雖則求學不是求分數，考試不是求第一，但是也不能孤芳自賞。最近臻美公佈了她在這個測試的成積，我想同外面的學校比較一下。
