Singapore Maths
The kids have been working hard on their Maths Workbooks problem solving. We managed to cover so many word problems. We even tried a variety of ways to see how this could help the kids. Finally we decided that we would manage a sentence at a time and what kind of equations that we can come up with with each sentence instead of managing the whole problem at one go. This tend to help the students manage their problem in a more systematic approach. Giving them confidence. Sometimes we went back to their formulas to refresh, to make sure that they had a better grasp of the formulas in play and how best to apply them. With more practice and patience, the students will improve.
Thai
This week in Thai class, we practiced spelling and pronunciation. Practice spelling and reading correctly according to the tone. In Thai the language the tone is very important. If the tone is wrong, the whole meaning changes. In Thai reading the students, read along and practiced reading articles and answering questions from the story. In addition, we also practiced reading news articles and summarizing and explaining the difficult Thai words.

Handwriting
This week in Handwriting class, we want students to write legibly. If students’ writing is so messy that’s a serious problem because writing is a way to communicate a message to the reader. Handwriting should be an automatic process, so that students can focus on the content of what they’re writing. Handwriting is useful content in that a student can gain knowledge and practice reading during the handwriting.
