Happy Chinese New Year

This is a festival children get all excited about. Here's wishing all the children a very happy Chinese New Year and may they be blessed with good health, good grades and great happiness.

Word Recognition

There is this song that we once knew. It goes like this:

Oh where oh where has my little dog gone, oh where oh where has he been, with his tail …..

Well, I’m not talking about songs here but a few days ago, I was trying to teach Wayne how to read “WHERE” and “THERE” and after a few attempts, he didn’t seem to be able to recognize the words.

So, I use the above tune to teach him but changed the lyric a little. Here’s the lyric I have changed:

Oh where oh where has my little Wayne gone
Oh where oh where has he been
W. H. E. R. E. where where where
W. H. E. R. E. where

Oh there oh there is my little Wayne
Oh there oh there he is
T. H. E. R. E. there there there
T. H. E. R. E. there

Boy, it was effective! Now, not only Wayne can spell the two words, even Nyn can spell!

It's New Year!

It's new year and that means Karl will be in Primary 2 and Wayne has one more year to be trained before he enters primary school. Nyn would enter class of 4 years old in kindergarten and all of them will be in morning session this year.

I wish my children would study well and be healthy and happy for the entire year. Happy new year to all of you out there.
