That's why we need to practice in our daily life to make what we learn a permant thing in our mind set.  Language is not learnt by memorizing.  We as parents need to pitch in our bit.  There is a fine line between pressure and fun.

好奇怪, 為何這題目全都以英文回應, 其實我大部份時間在BK都是以中文與其他媽咪交流意見, 等我不妨又轉回中文台, 好嗎。

我想大家都知道英語的重要性, 但中文我自己認為更難掌握得好, 所以找兩者都希望女兒可學好。 以中英文交談, 我想大家都可應付自如, 我亦看得出很多BK的家長的英文底子也很好。  但無可否認亦有很多家長本身的英文水平並非很高, 要她們替孩子制造一個英語家庭環境並非易事，如有能力做到的話, 當然可以隨著自己意願及能力給孩子最好的, 但我相信大部份的土生土長或低下收入人士未必能這樣做得到。

學校的課程我本身反而覺得是其次, 因課程深淺會因市場需求而改變, 我最失望的是我們的大學生, 議員們, 他們的反應只是: 下, 乜而家D幼稚園教咁深! 佢唔識好似無問題, 反而係幼稚園GE錯　          而有個小學生反而會講, 如果而家幼稚園已經教呢D, 我覺得自己有點低B。

我會想, 小學生都會感覺到被幼稚園學生趕過而覺得無面, 那些大學生, 甚至乎那些人民代表, 為我們制定法制的議員們, 我真想問他們有沒有羞恥心 :evil:  :evil:  :evil:  :evil:

今日 send 咗好多次file，唔知大家收唔收到或啱唔啱用 (因為未必個個會利用'BT' download)。

如果其他媽媽都想要 'BT' file，可pm我 (以免影響發言區)，不過如果唔係要'BT'，我就幫唔到手啦﹗

請問節目中所指個間靈糧堂是在那區?我係幼稚園網業中找到四間靈糧堂是同一機構, 但係嘉林邊道個靈糧堂是否一樣? 謝謝報料.

Frankly, I'm always disappointed at HK media.  Anyway, everyone can enjoy freedom of speech in HK, including TVB editor.

The contents of this program is only their points of view.

(打中文好慢, 所以繼續英文台)

Surely, the programme may not be able to give a full picture. It is however a "valuable" programme as it triggers discussions in the society. It also enables parents to "think twice" of what sort of school that is most suitable for our kids....not just choosing a school with the longest queue.

I have recorded this program but not yet view it. After reading through all your responses. I found is difficult to say that a "erfect" kindergaten should be in trational eaducation or not. As every child is different. One might be suitable for traditional education, whereas others are not. It really depends on your child's learning path in order to choose the kindergaten that matches his/her learning ability. I agreed with moms that stated most of our children have poor English standard. But try to view it in a different perspective, if you ask a Westerner to say in Chinese wording like Igloo, caterpilllar etc. He/she might not ring a bell instantly, because they are not exposed to the Chinsese speaking environment. In order to familiar or learn more vocabulary of a certain language, is to expose to the speaking environment. I speak 4 languages, because I used to live in a bilingual city plus speaking chinese at home. My boy will start K1 next fall at Ling Leung. I will let him familiar with the school life and keep track of his learning path, in order to choose which education curriculum fits him. Always keep an open mind ! Sorry, I don't have Chinese writting pad!

My Chinese typing is very slow so I need to type in English.  I'm very interesed in knowing the education path of the Singaporean.  As I did not watch the programme, I want to know if s/he received traditional education or not, including his kindy life.  Is there any happy learning school in Singapore?

Furabies,

我睇見個大學生讀錯晒d 字, 又全部都唔識解, 我比佢嚇親呀, 覺得有冇攪錯呀! 而家d 大學生英文程度咁差架,igloo 就話唔係咁常見啫,quilt, caterpillar, astronaut 都係好common ge 字. .而且好多小朋友圖書都有呢d 字. 仲有, 連立法局議員(仲要係張文光) 都唔識d 字, 仲話咩咁深呀! (我諗如果比我地以前鄧連如, 陸恭蕙, 李鵬飛, 同陳四萬, 去認呢d 字, 係冇問題囉) 點樣叫我地d 大學生反醒一下 係佢地程度有問題 or 係d 字真係太深??? 究竟而家香港教育出o左咩問題???

I watched it with hubby and we were disappointed that our college students do not know any of the words.  These words are honestly very common in the western world.  These words might be long but at least half of them are things that kids are familiar with on a daily basis.  

In our days we were learning 'a' for aeroplane and 'u' for umbrella.  They are long words too.  In this generation is astronaut a heated topic after we have our first astronaut up in the space?

Hello,

I am also interested in the programme. Pls send to my address: [email protected]

Thank you very much

There is no absolute right or wrong in this whole issue of kindergarten curriculum.  It's all personal choice.  And the kindergartens are more or less following our wishes and that's why we can choose from difficult traditional to creative easy living schools.  Parents' wishes are actually the driving force of this gap.  It's a basic demand and supply scenario.

Every child has unique talents.  Some are gifted with linguistic skills and others are more creative.  We as parents are trying to create an environment so that they can experience and learn.  And we have to base our choices of schools on our personal background, belief and other dispositions.

完全同意！！我囝囝未讀幼稚園，但我買俾囝囝睇的兒童英文讀物早已有這些所謂"深"字出現，囝囝都唔知幾enjoy讀及睇，我們大人不識讀，只怪我們見識少、學問低！

Yes, yes. I agreed to what Furbabies 寫道:--------
And again the media is making a big fuss on some immaterial issue and miss the main focus of things!   

非常同意，不過是一些不真正懂得教育的記者企圖作了些膚淺的報導。

美國哈佛大學霍華德教授將一個現代人的智能歸納為8方面：言語智能、數理邏輯智能、音樂智能、空間智能、肢體動覺智能、人際交往智能、自知自省智能、自然觀察智能。

真正的教育家不能片面地側重一面，我們家長的眼光宜遠一點，廣一點。

個人覺得香港教育的失敗之處不單是在語言訓練上，最要命的是不會思考、不探索、沒有毅力。。。星洲的英語是比香港好，但他們的不會思考也很致命。
