eggeggma and St.Catherine's Mom,

My son is very interesting in the reading book. I will preview once before the English teacher starting but I know the school do not recommend. Actually, I'm not satisfied in their English lesson that only have 25 minutes a day. What's your comment?

About the report, what is your daughter result? Is she got a lot of ticks in the first column? My boy is half half.....

Easymom,

You know who I am? Thank You!

Re: 1998年出世BB, 大家分享BB進度

Elainebell and other moms,

I can guess why you are dissatisfied with the lower class that kids only have 25 minutes with the English teacher, especially when comparing to N1. My girl sings fewer English songs now at home, less willing and less ready to speak English now at home, and less fluent than last year. Last year, she spoke more English than Chinese with us. Before promoting to lower, I have already heard about such complaint from other lower SC moms about this. So in the last summer holiday, I put my girl into some kind of summer english class (3 hours each session), continue going to playgroud (2 times per week), and force her to speak English at home (but only when I remember). Sometimes she refuses to speak English with me, reasoning that I am not an English person.

On the reprot: She does very well from my viewpoint, far beyond my anticipation, more ticks in the first column than in the second, about 7-3. I still cannot figure out how she can get ticks in the first column for such items as sharing, stable EQ and so (i.e., the non-academdic one), becasue she is a small girl in class. For commitment and participation in English lesson, she got a tick in the second column. I am happy with this, because I expect a tick in the 3rd column for this item.

As to the Kipper readers, she likes them very much, and insists on borrowing Kipper books only from the public libary, and purchasing related workbooks whenever doing shopping in bookstore. She reads with great joy at home, but behaves opposite in front of the English teacher, who thinks she does not like reading. Maybe I should also start previewing the readers before the english teacher does, so as to avoid this misunderstanding.

Besides Kipper, what other books does your son and other SC kids read? Last year, she was crazy with Thomas the Tank Engine, and this year the Powerpuff Girls. She really cannot read but always insists on buying.

eggeggma,

About my dissatisition. I expect he will learnt more English at school but his English is still very poor... I can't find any improvement compare with Nursery. Sometime I am regretful for chose SC.

Now I encourage him to speak English at home but he feels uncomforble and refuses to speak. Same case with you. From last month, he starting practice English in British Council(once a week)but still looking for some courses for him. Have you got any good recommendation?

Luckily, he is most interesting in reading. He likes stay in the library and bookstore even an hours. Beside Kipper, he still crazy on Thomas, Disney, Andy Pandy, Barney, Sesame Street...

eggeggma, your girl in Norfolk or Essex Crescent?
What's your target in primary school?
Nice to talk with you and exchange of opinions is very helpful.

Re: 1998年出世BB, 大家分享BB進度

Elainebell,

My girl is in the Norfolk campus. And I will target all private schools in Kowloon, as I can't rely on the central allocation. Based on my girl's performance and extra-cirricular activities, and parents' profile, she should be able to get a place in these schools, just don't know how many offers. At this moment (just guess and by instinct), I tend to believe she may end up in Good Hope and/or Kowloon Tong Primary School, partly based on past record of the St. Cat girls, and partly several of my husband's colleagues who are of lower rank and whose kids are also St. Cat graduates have got into these schools. I hope I am not the exceptional case. Of course, as every mum will say, DGJS is my dream (the 3T winner).

About English: If your boy is interested in reading story books, this can be a channel to develop his interest. My girl usually requests me (ironically not I myself taking the initiative) to read with her, and sometimes she will retell the story to me, make up a few dialogues based on the pictures and what she has heard. Sometimes, we have to make a deal on practising oral, e.g., if you want to go the park, we have to speack english. Luckily, she is quite able to keep the promise. On a few occasions, she even reminds me of the deal whenever I forget it. At this moment, I am training her to answer and speak in complete sentences.

Well, my prime intention is to make sure that she can communicate. SO far she is able to do so. Whenever she meets foreigners, she will automatically switch to the English channel, no need to remind her. Yet as you say and most moms do, the communication skills and fluency is a bit behind that of the nursery. Besides playgroup, I will send her to English class again in the coming summer holiday. Last year, she attended 3 days/week, and this year I plan for 5 days/week. This intensive exposure does help. Last summer, her english pronounciation was much better than Cantonese. Yet situation changes when school began and she starts watching more Cantonese cartoons (before, she used to watch Pearl's kids' program).

And what do you mean poor english and regretful? My impression is that St. Cat spends nursery to expose the kids to English, build up confidence and so. Lower and Upper classes are to teach the kids the pronounciation and readig skills, while I beleive grammar is not the main concern. So far I am quite OK with this, because I personally believe communication is more important. and there are still many years to build up vocab and learn grammar. Maybe my target is a bit low. hahaha.

There is one more thing, which may make you a little bit comfortable. There is a girl studying in another famous KG in Kowloon Tong, and we always chat. One day, my girl and she were requested to answer something in English. My girl's answer was incomplete but able to speak in a foreign accent (largely copying from the english teacher), while the other girl could answer in complete sentence, but you can clearly identify that her is a Cantonese accent. So I don't think St. Cat is not that bad, though I agree with you that the performance now cannot be compared to nursery. Well, I am rather simple and lazy. I just hope that her coming report will maintain the same standard of the last one, should be suffice to present to the target schools.

Mind telling me what does your son do in the British Council? Once/week maybe enough for grammar learning, but personally I don't think it is enough for oral. Well, it depends on your son's character, e.g., shy or not, active or not and so.

Any opinions and ideas? Other moms are also welcome

Re: 1998年出世BB, 大家分享BB進度

My girl (K2) has just finished both capital and small letters A-Z, including the sound, and is about to start prounciation, e.g., big, pig, cat and mat. Before deciding whether it is too slow or not, see what is the rationale behind, e.g., maybe require you to learn 20 vocab starting with A, and if it is the case, I personally do not think too slow.
