Thanks Monster Munmy. I will speak to his current teacher in ICR & the admin. Actually I want to free up his time so that he have more play time. See how things goes n give him tutiton lessons if he needs it later in P3 or so.

I think that ICR main objective is for children to be able to read. If you need to free up his time during this period, teach him basic grammar rule.

Hi Mummies,

May I know what is the best age to start ICR ?

My boy is turning 3 in Dec., and I understand they have a Little Bear Club for kids of his age. Is it appropriate for him to start now ?

Is skipping book/s ever happened in ICR level? The teacher suggested to skip book/s and promote my DS to other class with tougher book because he has shown restlessness after completing his ‘task’ with his group. She commented he is too advanced in the class and yet he is the youngest. He is currently in book 3.

I have never encountered but ultimately it will still depend on teacher's recommendation.

If my DS didn’t show sign of restlessness, I wouldn’t be bother at all. Hopefully the teacher can keep him occupied throughout the lessons.

I put my kids in ICR at Rivervale Mall before they were 4yrs old. To me, the teachers who taught my kids are good. I am happy with my elder kid who can read pretty well before age of 5. However, parents need to play an important role here - assist your kid to do the assigned homework diligently, patiently and consistently. I dont think you can just leave all to the ICR teachers (it is just once a week for 1.5hr). So my youngest is doing TCS now and embarking on the proven ICR program soon.

I agreed because previously my child also has problem until I enforce them to revise every week after classes. It really need hard work to see the result. I would said that their ICR programme especially it work for my children.
