Hi Kaisumother,


My ds is in Sec 4 IP and maybe I can answer your second question.
The teacher actually recommend students to take double science and double humanities instead of triple science. The reason is IB needs at least 1 humanities and I think O level as well. Therefore it is very risky if you took only 1 humanities (eg. History) and realized you don’t do well/lost interest in that subject, which may pull down your overall score in the end.
It is not hard to get into Triple science class.

My son is in HPPS studying Pri 2. He enjoys himself in school and has make a lot of friends there. As for homework, i think it really depends on the teacher. However, I realised there are more boys than girls in HPPS, maybe there are just too many girls primary schools around the area.

me too. 7.30am is too early. Thumb up for the change.

My son is 7yrs old attending Pri 1 now. I have sent him to Zoo phonics since he was 5 at Thomson branch and stop before end last year. So he has actually attended 2 years of Zoo phonics.

From what I gather, Zoo phonics is very focused on phonics and has make learning phonics very fun. My son strength on phonics is now very strong, able to pronounce difficult words and this has make his spelling learning so much easlier in Pri 1. However, zoo phonics is mainly on vocab but not grammer. Now my son kind of struggle with his grammer usuage, sentence structure, word orders, etc.

JJJ,

I have a problem with my child's grammar too. I think it is because of influence by the maid. She is solely taken care off by my maid and unfortunately, my maid has passed her poor grammar to my daughter.

Yes, I agreed. External factors like maid's language, TV programme which speak a lot of Singlish and of course we unconsciously speak broken English without knowing it. They are like a sponge, absorbing all these into them.
