Preschool education

Rui and Yan preschool just revamped their curriculum to emphasise on more value-teaching and more family bonding through home activities. The curriculum has become more rigorous too. Just to show what I mean -

Yan is only in N2 and the chinese teacher has started teaching them to recognise chinese characters such as 花，虫，大，小，树，草。These characters have got to do with the theme for this term which is Nature. The teacher encouraged me to expose Yan to these characters at home through 字卡 and learning through play. I am obliging for the moment. Not sure if my enthusiasm will last long though.

Rui's chinese spelling list has gotten longer - 6 words now instead of 5. And some are 3-character words. Her English spelling has progressed to short sentences now. And I just got an email from the teacher to do some home activity with her over the weekend.

With all this training, let's hope they get a smooth transition to P1.
