A friend's kid is studying at an ESF school Year 2 (equivalent to Y1 in Local School). I asked to take a look of her works, and I was surprised. She is learning the Unit of Inquiry (part of the IB PYP) on "How plants affect other living things." They are learning words and concepts such as "pollination", "germination", and "reproduction". And they have spelling test every week on these words (but not counting marks). The point is today's ESF is not the "hea" type as many people think. (I believe it is the same with most International Schools.) Parents have to put in certain efforts to help them along. But the schools make the learning fun and interesting to the kids. Just this last night (Sunday), I was having dinner at my friend's house. The girl told me, " Uncle 猪猪侠, tomorrow is Monday, hooray! I can go back to school." And my friend said to me, every night she (the mother) goes home and looks forward to doing the daily reading with her daughter. It is an enjoyable daily routine to her (the mother). And take note, she and her husband do not believe in extra tutoring. But the kid is still doing quite well. |
