Enrichment Classes - Roundup for July 2013

Another update on the enrichment classes my 2 little ones are attending...

For Ian, there are some changes!  He agreed to drop the English Speech & Drama class that is conducted in his childcare centre.  This is after I asked him to choose between this or the Robotics class.  He has also completed the Advanced Phonics class at the beginning of June. So he is left with the following classes:


  1. Piano Advanced Group - Staring to see a little improvement recently, as he starts to read the music score and plays on his own.
  2. Abacus - Still quite a chore to make him do his homework, but seeing a little improvement as he can now do the simple addition and subtraction questions mentally, and also do the audio questions much faster than before.  However, his mathematical concept is still quite weak.
  3. English Pre-Creative Writing - Nothing much at the moment, just learning nouns and adjectives.  And, also some exercises to spur their creative juices.
  4. Right-Brain Training - One of the classes that he simply refuses to give up at the moment.  The teacher says that he is slowly improving and is starting to get some of the numbers in the memory exercises correct.  But he manages to get most or all of the picture memory cards correct most of the time.  
  5. Lego Robotics - One of the other classes that he refuses to drop.  He enjoys the class tremendously and I think he loves getting a certificate at the end of each project!

Isabelle has started to attend classes at the same right-brain training centre as Ian.  She is so much better now, after being exposed to the childcare centre.  For the last 3 lessons, she has not created much problem in the class.
