Hi SM parent,
Can you advise how to divided the students into the 3 groups ? Based on what criteria ? Best studends -> Fair students --> below Standard students ??
Are they learning the same syllabus ?
作者: monkeydad 時間: 08-9-18 08:49
As noted from the intranet homework dairy, they should be learning the same syllabus.
The Head teacher said the distribution is by random. But I have the following findings / observations :
G1 English - has more non-Chinese students
G2 Maths - move faster than G3 and G1
G1 and G2 Chinese - move almost in the same pace but seems there is no G3 only the Chinese as 2nd Lang. group
I am not sure the teachers has splited the groups according to student's respective learning level but it will be so after the 1st term (2nd term starts in Nov).

Dear monkeydad, thanks for your good observation. That means, based on each subject, the studends will be splitted into different groups, right ? As you see, normally, how many non-Chinese studends in one P1 class ? Thanks.

Dear ChapmanMa,
It seems that you are not current SM parent.
The grouping is not rigid and the school tries not to disclose as the split is for sake of the kid's benefit.
The beforesaid is just my observation this year and it may change year by year.
The total number of non-Chinese students varies each year and the split this year 08-09 is about 10 in P1G1 and 4-5 in G2 and G3 respectively.

Dear monkeydad,
Yes, I am not current SM parent but I hope I can be next year. I will go to SM's briefing this Sat and definitely will apply it. Hope my son can be granted an interview and be a lucky boy in SM next year....thanks of your sharing.
Also, how's the difficulty of the homework ? Will it be too many per day ? Sorry for a lot of questions.

ChapmanMa,
Comparing to other local schools, homework of SM is not that much. All depends on the style of your kid.
Some mothers said the workload is even less than kindergarten. A few commented it is too much.
Take my boy as an example, he probably can finish within one hour if he is in good mood. Please note that my boy is from an international type kindergarten (project based and less writing). If those from traditional kindergarten, they would feel easy.

我問過學校 
1, 1st term 跟據１年前(K3學生)該批學生面試表現,按程度高低分 G1, G2 G3
因當時學生還小,一年後可能程度有轉變, 故2nd term可能按現時程度再重組Group
按理應G1 學的會快些,或多些課外題,但因剛開學,我暫時發覺程度相差不大.

yeah..I also got similar information as your.
No matter which group yr kids are now studying, smc should provide suitable teaching progress to enhance/ improve students' standards.
So, don't mind on which group yr kids are allocated in, but try to pay much attention to them coz they're all just 6 yrs old and need us to guide & encourage them.
大家努力

I want my boy to join as well because I find his English is not good enough. I also want him to join the homework club also as I want him to develop a good / proper habit of doing homework.
By the way, where do you live, nearby? My boy is in the same school bus with your twins and your girl says hi to me every time.

So, did your girl finally take any cambridge test? What level she took? I plan to let my girl study the YLE course (cos the price is really attractive) but am wondering if I should put her in "starter" or "mover". I called the York centre and they told me that "mover" covers some grammer test but don't know if it's difficult! Don't know if she reaches the standard for "mover" test...or better stay in "starter"! If we check with her teacher, will they give us advise you think?

I live in Kln East, everyday, my babies take school bus for one hour one way. If I take taxi for 25minutes only. I want them to finish homework at home, so I can know whether or not they understand the homework. If they finish the homework at school , I do not know what they can not understand.
Since extra activity is no school bus, so my babies only join the Cambridge course.

I admire your so much that your boy and girl could tell you a lot on what they have learnt in school. I asked my boy the same but he said his Spanish note book was kept by the teacher.
Besides, he also told me that he didn't understand much during English and Mathmatics lessons. I was quite surprised as we have talked to him in English very often at home and his English standard should not be that bad. Puzzling...

Monkeydad, don't worry. I think the point is daily oral english may be a bit different to the English lesson. Coz there may be a bit related to some grama, sentences making, etc. Also, they may need sometimes to get familar in learning Maths in Eng. I am sure your kid will take it up easily very soon.

When I put my boy to sleep last night, I tried some simple spanish words, like Hola, Adios... Surprisingly, he could correct my prononciation. He even said "thank you" to me in Spanish (of course I am not sure whether it is right). This made me feel a bit better.
Anyway, I have a spanish oral CD and will learn some words when he goes school. Again, thanks for providing me the info that I can catch up with him.
I am still a bit worried about his Maths and English lessons. What I can do for him is to prepare the class well ahead that would make him a bit easy to follow.

Do not worry. 能考入SM 的學生英文基楚不會差. 可能你仔仔需要時間適應新老師(發音及教學方法), 如事前與仔仔備課可能便於他理解. 我會在家用中文再解題,讓仔仔確實明Maths, 始終English is 2nd language, 他們做maths exercise 仍未能做到用英文思維,高年級時,當適應後,會逐漸过渡用英文思維.
大家一起努力.

Sure. I will be helping the Long Jump section.

HKQQbaby,
He is ok, just hurt his right hand with the pencil.
He is now practising running with his uncle. He asked his uncle to bring him to the sports ground and show him how long is 60m. He said he will run 60m and only the top 8 boys can go for the final.
I saw the 20 words but my boy told me dictation is only up to the 12th (may be this is his wish / dream). Glad that we have 2 days off on Sep 30 and Oct 1.
My boy has not yet finished the textbook and workbook exercises up to Ch 10. Have to hurry up.

你地今年同我地去年p1已經有唔同la. 我地去年10月才dictation. 約每月一次咋. 數學quiz 全個學期大約有5-6次. gs quiz 約4-5次.
英文dictation 真係唔算谷, 去年全年都係默生字, 冇默過句子呀.

No wonder I found there were fewer students on the bus - quite a number of empty seats. Then your twins will arrive home earlier la.
Today I found the completed pages after pg 38 of my boy's Maths textbook were erased.

你地收到星際探險閱讀計劃小冊子嗎? 坦白講,要在兩個月內睇40本書,換句話說, 即一星期要看5本書, 對我來說有一些壓力....因為幼稚園時的書很薄,看一本只需10分鐘,......但小學的書比較多字,要一天看一本要花頗多時間.....而且我覺得只是重量而不重質, 實在太難與小朋友分享閱讀心得了.....
作者: G-Ma 時間: 08-10-3 23:57
如果睇唔哂40本都唔緊要架, 學校只係鼓勵小朋友多D閱讀, 唔係硬性規定一D要睇咁多.
其實我都覺得質量重要過數量, 如果夾硬睇一D簡單既書揍夠數, 咁就無咩意義. 不過小朋友係小息, 午飯後都有時間睇書, 一星期都可以睇到幾本既.
作者: monkeydad 時間: 08-10-4 10:12
Sara,
I thought it was quite tough for P1 at the beginning. However, I think it may be the school's objective to encourage kids to read more when I stepped back. This sets the target for the kids.
Besides, we can have a mix - both difficult and easy ones. The purposes are (1) to encourage them to read and be able to recognize some words as well as (2) to widen their knowledge. Thus, I will choose a mix including those less interesting topics such as stories of the Great Men and Women like Newton, Nintingale, Helen Keller, Wright Brothers, Watt... as well as those funny themes like Three Little Pigs, Disney stories...
The language ability of my boy is not that good and I have to accompany him to do the reading and let him bring the book to school to read by himself (not sure??) for memory recall.

G-MA & MONKEYDAD,
其實我同個女每日都有睇書,係睇e.g.親子故事一百篇 or成語一日一篇之類既書,如果要一定睇d好薄而無故事性&無教育意味的書,就真係失去左個意義啦!
我個女講到好似功課咁一定要做,所以我諗我都要適應下!
如果叫我個女在學校小息 & lunch自動自覺睇,我諗都有d難度啦.....希望遲d得啦....

Sara,
In this stage, I have to read to my boy and make him learn and read the repeated words. I think this should be an on-going process, not just last for 2 months, hoping that he can eventually read by himself la.
I would take reading one chapter of the Great Chinese Novels (kid's version, 3-4 pages full of words) such as 三国演义 as one book given its rich content and each chapter can stand out as a story.
I have sought advice from an education specialist (teaching education in CU) who told me that the reading campaign may be just the school's objective to develop the kids' reading habit. She also advised to do what we can (at both parents and kids level) and to read in a relax mode as quality is more important than quantity.
Don't put a lot of pressure on yourself. Reading is fun. Finish reading 40 books in 2 months time is tough. Let's try our best la.

Hi monkeydad & Sara, recently I read books with my son every day. To encourage his interests to read book initiatively, I will set an interesting alarm ring in my mobile at 8:30pm every night. When my son hear my mobile's alram ring, he will know this is the time for "parents-son-reading time". It works up till now... you may try this method.

我買了四本(1套) 的兒童學成語, 每天臨睡前與他們讀一篇(即一個成語故事). 先用中文解說,再用普通話照書讀,這樣讓他們易明白故事內容,又可認少少中文字. 最後可記得一個"四字成語". 雖只有兩板字,也需花２０-30分鐘. 有時他們都太困了,說想睡覺.
由此我會盡量讀４０篇成語故事,不是４０本書.
作者: monkeydad 時間: 08-10-4 18:36
HKQQbaby,
I finished reading two books for my boy - one Disney story and the story of Helen Keller (the blind and deaf writer / social worker). The Disney story is relatively simple and I taught my boy to recognize the words while the story of Helen Keller is a bit difficult in context of relatively lengthy content and I taught him the success of that Great Lady.
You are right. It is quite time consuming (on parents) as he is not yet able to read by himself. I will try my best la.

Mr Gaffney has written dictation on his homework diary.
He said that there is dictation again on the 20 words they already dictated but he does not know when will it take place. Is that because he did most of the words wrong that he has to re-do again? I am very puzzling as he did most on those correct on Sunday???????????

I just found he missed the GS writing. I was out for dinner. I checked the intranet before I left at 18:30 but this was not posted yet.
He also told me he did not write two words (I thought it was face and dark per his performance on sunday).
I did call Mr Gaffney at around 16:30 but could not reach him.

HKQQbaby,
Did you note of the two stickers on the back of the homework diary? These are the passwords for entering into two on-line homework sites - one is for Chinese comprehension and the other is for English.
The school has less writing and copying but quite a lot of optional "qualitative" homework - reading, on-line exercises... It is not an easy task to follow all la.
I finally talked to Mr G. He told me that my boy made 8 out of 20 for the first time and thus had to re-do. He made 19 correct then. Interesting - I revised the words with him on sunday and he got almost all correct but made 8 on Monday. I had not done anything last night but he made 19 correct today (5 days from the last revision).
作者: pink-l 時間: 08-10-10 23:44
Monkeydad,
No worry, if so that means your son knows all those 20 words but he may a little bit not accustum to the dictation atmosphere. I guess he is very much on track and will obtain a good result next time.
Do you know they will take the 1st or the 2nd result in the assessment?
作者: monkeydad 時間: 08-10-11 00:09

I think the assessment is on-going.
School handbook indicates first term break in mid Nov. Thus, I would expect there may be regrouping afterwards.

Thank you for your reminder for the note of stickers on the back of homework diary. I will try it with my babies.

I find it not easy to follow through all the school optional homework. I am afraid my boy cannot catch up if fail to do so.
He learn 5 words every alternate day but cannot remember all after a few days. He can read but not spell. I have to repeat and repeat revising with him. This would be quite tough when he learns more.
For the Chinese passage, he may learn a few new words each day, but again he may not remember, recognize and re-write.
I do not know what should be for P1 as all schools accelerate the syllabus.

我認為外籍人士子女雖然英語好好, 但可能因為他們不是持有HKID (即非香港人) 而被直資和津,官校拒收生.(始終該類學校受香港政府資助,用我們納稅人的錢) 但私校就例外(因屬自負盈虧, 不涉及政府資助)
例如: 菲傭及其他外籍人士,如只取得香港工作簽證,他的子女(非香港出生)雖穫得入境許可,我想他們是不能在香港讀直資和津,官校.

HKQQbaby,
I don't know why it is suddenly postphoned. This may be to avoid dictation and GS quiz on the same day - I heard some parents had lodged the complaints.
To be frank, SMC is less demanding for P1 comparing to traditional schools. Our kids have to learn getting used to being squeezed as this is life. The earlier they learn, the better they would be, though it is definitely not fun for us as parents.
作者: pink-l 時間: 08-10-27 12:08
Monkeydad,
Exactly, when compare with other school like Yau Tin and Yin Wah, our workload is just peanut. If the quize is on Mon, then we can review with our kids on Sun, sometime like us working mum not sure if we can come back early during weekdays or we may go for trip that even worse to us.
作者: monkeydad 時間: 08-10-27 13:12

You get a point here. This may be the reason that dictation is usually taken place on Monday. If so, the teachers are quite considerate, particularly to those working mothers.

Next Term(after Nov) P1 students will have Chinese dictation.

My boy remembered some and forgot some. I find this link quite useful -

But it may be too late as it is about to finish. Anyway, this may be good for those taking Spanish in the next term or perhaps for us in P2.
