Updates

Dear Parents,

Today the boys and I re-read the big book 'The Farm Concert'. After reading, the boys completed two learning sheets in the Unit Booklet.

Below are some observations and advice I would like to share with you:

1. Many of the boys are unable to distinguish between the letters in their upper and lower case. Kindly remind your child of the following:

-If a word begins with a capital letter, the capital letter is the biggest and tallest letter in the word. If there is a tall letter (eg. 'h') in the same word, that letter is as tall as the capital letter. The rest of the letters must be smaller and shorter than the capital/tall letter.
eg.     Shoes

-Kindly emphasize to your child that he must write the words/answers on the lines provided. They should not be floating in mid air.

2. The boys are required to write their name and class, and the date on every Learning Sheet.
-Kindly train your child to write his name correctly, his class as '1Good' and the date in this format eg. 8 January 2013.

3. Kindly ensure that your child has a pencil sharpener and knows how to use it. He also needs a ruler, an eraser and some colour pencils. Corrections are to be done using a green colour pencil, so kindly ensure that your child has one.

Many of the boys have submitted their books and English file to me today. Thank you very much for helping your child to collate them for submission! I hope to be able to complete the collection by the end of the week.

Thank you for your attention! Wishing you a pleasant evening!
