Back to her exam, I don't normally do revisions with her except coaching her on her homework. If there isn't any homework for the day, then her school bag would be left untouched. I think that's perfectly alright at kindy level, right? Right? So obviously this is a last minute work. Must at least do some revision, cannot take exams too lightly though. Otherwise she'll get a big shock when she goes to primary school.
English and Mathematics are over. Tomorrow she'll be having Mandarin. Followed by Bahasa Malaysia and Science. I'm wondering how she'll do in the Mandarin test as I've not been doing much revision with her on that subject. I'm not good in it myself. Hope she's been paying attention in class. While I was testing her on the numbers in Chinese, she wasn't sure of seven (qi1) and eight (ba1). But she surprised me by recognising complicated characters of insects like bee, fly, butterfly, mosquito, cockroach and ant (which were taught in school, of course).
Anyway, no need to give her unnecessary pressure. I must keep reminding myself. I know I've not been practising what I've been preaching. Okay, we'll reward her with something when her results are out, no matter how she did. But shhhh... let's not tell her first. ;-)

Hi Slavemom, my wife too loves making those blueberry muffins, or banana pound cake.
Before I met her I was slim, about 135 pounds, then as the years went by with her gourmet Nonya cooking (she not even a Nonya) and her love of making cakes...I put on 45 pounds in all the years.
Fortunately I have my height too ha ha, have all that weight spread around...last weighed was 196 pounds.
Have a great week and best regards, Lee.
wah, kindy level also got exam kah? wow! i wish him all the luck ok!
dont put too much pressure on him, but on the other hand also cannot be too lenient...hehehe...
Is it the standard of kindy is much higher now or I totally forgot what i've studied in kindy? I don't remember there is science subject at kindy..haha.
