Thanks for the tip. The extras sure seem 'interesting'... Her Chinese teacher is 陈老师，Faith 2 FT last year.

I have no idea abt tr mentioned.

On english spelling, out of curiosity, does this year P2 list mention anything abt unseen words?

Yes, there will be 3 unseen words as stated in the sp list. My dd said teacher may give from extra words she taught them and told them to write in My Word Bank book. Last year, they had 3 unseen words plus 2 sentences, may not be across the board for P1.

Last year, the FT gave words and the children has to form their own sentences with the words. Not tough lah, copable. My child thot its fun. FT did not have any word bank book w them tho.

Maybe your child did not buy the book. It was in the P1 and P2 book lists.

My girl is in P1 and got a 'english test'yesterday and from what she said, think its more to test if the kids are ready for P1..... tested on things like write on e lines and to spell abt 10 words. ... a total of 12 pages.....it really 'open' my eyes :faint:

Yes. It's the School Readiness Test. If it's the same as last year, later on, they may sit for an online assessment to gauge their reading skills. It's based on a US Reading software. Conducted beginning of the year and near the end of the year. It's not to be computed Into exams, of course. :lol:

So far, my boys have gone through a reading test every year. There will be a report for the parents to know how well the child reads/understands.
