Sabrina always told me, every Thursday they have speak and drama lesson in school. So far they have not performance anything. This is their first poems for "Road Safety and traffic Light" Told S,speak and drama meaning speak with up and down tones (voice training)and face expression to made the story nicer and exciting. Just like our reading, we dont read with same tones(must have Do Re Mi) not only (Do Do Do) for every words. I can say " S is doing well on this part too" here have some video was taken when she was 4

Chinese update

Image
I brought this homework book is to practice her Chinese characters hand writing skill. I realise I did not give much time on Chinese writing. Good point on this book is they are no HYPY on the book. That could give her more chance to learn Chinese character and how to form a sentences. This book is for primary 3. but so far Sabrina handle well on her reading and understand part. I just need to guiding on a few words. First try, I have explaining words meaning on the box and she will try to fill in. now she actually could do without my explaination.cheers Lower part of this homework , content some " fill in the suitable sentences" which I think is very good for me to train Sabrina on sentences.

I teach Sabrina use addition style... mean 65 x 2 = ? mean 65+65 = 130. but is quite long way to do the calculation...she make careless mistake on the addition :(.. so better use 65 x 2 ..
