Hi,


My daughter is born in 2007, and the PV registration starts this year
Can any parents advise me if you know what areas are the school looking for people who can contribute?

Thank you.

Dear Fairsians,


Im apply for PV for my child born in 2007. guess its open for application now. can you advise me what services are more sought after in FMPS? or what services you think they school needs? can we even to suggest some donations as well? :oops: what did you do as a PV?

Thanks so much for advising

Thanks for the reply, Chen Tai. Do you think your DD would have picked up those simple words on her own without joining the programme? Did you try to reinforce what she learned at Little Learners by going through their materials at home regularly? I can't wait for my girl to start reading on her own; she keeps pestering me to read to her a few times a day! Sometimes very tiring.... :shock:[/quote]



yes, she might have picked up the reading skills fm her childcare too u are right. i did question the teacher (Ms Karen) before but she told me that kids that go through the little learners will pick up easier at the upper levels compared to those who didnt. so i asked my DD if she still want to continue & she told me she like the class, so i just let her continue. I think if she enjoys, she wl pick up more i did not reinforce what she learn during little learners cos there's no workbooks n all. mainly took back all the colourings sheets. I only started reinforcing when she's start 4 years old. PS: they have homework to do every week!

btw, TCS means THINKING & learning skills....its a level UP from little learners. TCS only learn the 1st sound of every alphabets.

FYI, my DD is already in PRP just before she turns 4 (wch quite a few of her classmates are already 5-6 years old). i guess its bcos she started ICR young thus picking up faster than those who just joined.

Hi,


Anyone can kindly provide feedback on the Little Learners Programme at ICR? Particularly the branch at Rivervale Mall? My DD just turned 3 last month but she can't read yet. I am wondering if it would be beneficial to send her now or wait till later when she is more 'mature' and more ready to learn. Any advice?

Thanks for sharing!

my DD joined little learners programme when she turns 3 too, at harboufront centre branch. Initially i dont find the programme helpful as she's only doing some colouring & story telling in her class. but after a year now she made tremendous improvements. she can read some simple words on her own. no regrets la think the little learners programme is to prepare them for the next level.

Hi, i was planning to order a cake fm Pine Garden & they told me i have to go get the figurines myself if i want it. Do you know where i can buy those figurines? thanks!!

Hi Hi,


My boy is 3.5 yo and since about 2.5 yo, I have been buying quite a lot of wooden puzzles for him to do. He like to fix those A,B, C and 1,2, 3 types of puzzles and those with pictures. I like to buy Melissa & Doug and Learning Journey brand from Toys R Rus. Once he has learnt, you will know because he would not want to touch them again! This year, I buy for him those 4, 6, 12 pieces of picture puzzles for him to do.

Fixing picture puzzles are very good but it is not easy to find nice, good, sturdy wooden ones!

You can also surf the website of Right2Learn.com to look at the educational toys and Montessori materials they sell. You can buy them and do with your kids at home as well!

My boy also loves Playdoh and a lot of time was spent doing this with him.

Enjoy!

Thanks for yr advice!! wl go work on it! :celebrate:

Are husband and wife allowed to have different address in our IC (one HDB, one private) when we register our kid for primary school?

i think this has already been discussed in this thread earlier. No, not allowed if both husband n wife is staying together.
