8. Bridging Courses for P.1, P.3 and P.6 pupils

To ensure a smooth transition from Kindergarten(K3) to P.1, an English lesson was conducted by the English teacher in late August. Students sang songs and read a story with their teachers. A worksheet was given to students to help them know about the school’s name and their class. In addition, a bridging course was provided for them in the first teaching week of September. They learned some basic greetings, classroom language, classroom rules and revised the alphabets with teachers. They also knew more about people at school in NET lessons.

For Dictation arrangement, in 1st Term, instead of having Dictation in the traditional way, Fun Dictation was conducted.  Students  learn the spelling of words through interactive and fun activities. Starting from 2nd Term, formal dictation will be introduced. Dictation syllabus will be given to P.1 students two weeks prior to the dictation in order to let them get used to the format of dictation and enjoy more revision time. Besides, 1st Term test was substituted by two formative assessments to ensure students not to be overburdened while providing them with the vibe of an assessment.

 

To ensure Primary 3 students get used to the upper primary curriculum more easily, cursive writing and verb table dictation (past tense) have been gradually introduced to them.  Students are observed that they can easily get adapted to the content more quickly and comfortably.

 

For Primary 6 pupils, secondary school interview workshops are provided during NET lessons in order to prepare pupils to do self-introduction and showcase their strengths during interviews. Pupils can also develop presentation skills and interaction strategies in the workshops.  Furthermore, teaching of the four language skills is covered with the aid of PowerPoint.
