Last Sat was Jayden's exam in Shichida, just to test how much he know. The sensei asked "Jayden, Elephant starts with? Please circle the answer"
He didn't move. He was just holding his pencil and then he turned and looked at me.
I said "circle the answer la. I know you know the answer".
Then he put his pencil on the paper and he wrote:
So happened he wrote this E for me today together with other alhapabets and a heart shape. So I can show u guys how his E looks like. hehe
When we (both me and his sensei) saw what he did, we're like stunned for a moment.
And then the next question was "Bottle starts with letter?"
He wrote B.
And then "Umbrella starts with?" And he wrote U.
But there was a few alphabets which he doesn't know how to write so he circled the right answer.
I know, a 3 yr old who can write cacat-ed alphabet like that is nothing. But to me, I am really surprised because he never show me that he knows how to write and he did it without dotted lines to guide him. When I ask him to write he'll ask me to hold his hands and write with him. He said he cannot do it and don't know how. Notty lil fler.....he know it all the while, saja wanna manja with me.
I was smiling from ears to ears in class. Then I went home and told Big C about it and then I realized ....Alamak!.... the instruction was "CIRCLE" the answer and not "WRITE" the answers" So did he pass or fail leh? *scratch head*
Clever boy ^-^

ReplyDeleteMy boy recently learning ABC also abit weird, when he hold a alphabet.. like E , he duno that is sound E, but he will tell me is for Elephant, If he hold W he will say, is for Walrus, Q - queen ,C - Cat and many more.. so this consider know alpabet or not lei ? can ask ur sensai ar?? i also duno ..... :P
So clever. Artistic too. See he use italics!
ReplyDeleteSmart boy!! I think write or circle, it is the same...If really need to circle only will pass the test, then, I think they don't let the kid freely express themselves
ReplyDeleteWell done Jayden!! Brilliant job!
ReplyDeletepass lah
ReplyDeleteOH.. I can see the grin on mummy's face.. must be soooooooooooo proud.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! That day he decided to surprise u with wat he knows, which u didn't know he knew. ;)
ReplyDeleteU know wat, he understood the instruction, ie to circle the answers. But becoz he wanted to surprise u, he wrote out the alphabets. So for those he doesn't know how to write, he mah circle loh. Way to go, Jayden!
I think... he did better then expected lor.. Very advanced lil fella..
ReplyDelete*clap clap* Jay! I heard shicheda method is good but costly...how much did you pay for it? Must start planning for Adel.
