Mathematics Marking Notes

Dear parents,

I am sharing with you my marking notes so that you can better support your child in his/her work.
I have shared my marking notes with the pupils and they up getting use to my marking notes in class to monitor their own corrections and work.

However, a handful of them still need reminders and more support.

For Math Workbook, the notes can be found on the title page of their workbooks.

1) Corrections to be done : the page number(s)  will be indicated

2) Corrections done and marked : the page number(s) will be cancelled off

3) Re-corrections or second reminder for corrections : the page number(s) will be circled



For Math Test book , the pupils will be required to tear out the pages by the Chapters Units. This is to lighten their school bags should they need to complete the work at home.  

For Maths Test Book and Math Worksheets:

We will follow the marking notes as above.

1) Ready for filing : a double tick

We will only file the Math Test Units and Math Worksheets in teh Blue Math files when they achieved a double tick . Otherwise it will still be a worksheet "in progress"

Hope the above helps in monitoring your child's work. Thank you for your support.

Ready for filing :)

Counting to 10

Yesterday we had a Math lesson where the pupils learn to relate the "numerals" to the "words" of Numbers 1 to 10.

Here are some photos to share.






















Class Rules and Class Routines

Hi parents,

Here are the slides I have shared with the class on our class rules and class routines. We hope the pupils will follow these rules so that we can have a happy and safe learning environment for everyone. Do spend some time to go through these slides with you child to reinforce these understanding.

I have also pasted the rules on Page 14 for their School Handbook today. Do help to acknowledge by signing on the same page.

Thank you,
Mrs Ow Yong

First Week of School

Miss Lim and myself were excited and look forward to welcome our P1 class this year.
 
We will be spending the next few weeks getting the pupils to understand  the class and school rules and settling them into our classroom routines.

Most of the pupils are settling well. Do remember to help your child pack the correct story books for the morning silent reading.

Monday - Wednesday : English story book 
Thursday - Friday: Mother Tongue story book

We will need your support to help your child change their story books once they have finished reading so that they will be better engaged during the 20 minutes of silent reading time. 

We did a hand print activity where they are required to trace both their left and right hand prints. It was wonderful to see the little ones working cooperatively helping each other to complete the task.
