- Piano - Still not playing very well, though he loves going to this class so much that he urges us to bring him to the class even before it is time to go. Recently, discovered by accident that one good way to spike his interest to practise the homework was to show him a video on YouTube first, then let him remember how the song sounds like before trying to play.
- Abacus - Finally getting 5 books to bring home. As usual, it is a chore to make him do his abacus homework.
- Advanced Phonics - Into his final term of the phonics course now, and last week was one of the assessment tests with a spelling test. It was the first time he had given me such a shock - 2 out of 4. I tried to find out from him what were the words tested, but to no avail.
- English Speech & Drama
- Right Brain Training - He loves this class as well. The teachers say that he is slowly improving in the memory exercises. The teacher pointed out that a notable point is that he can spot the 2 new cards introduced each week.
- Lego Robotics (started since some time in Febuary) - Organised by his childcare centre. It exposes them to the learning of robotics, its design and construction. I got to peep at his class during one of the lessons and they were using laptops for each child to learn. I am not sure how much he benefits from this class, but he seems to enjoy it a lot as he gets to interact with mini robots and try to build his own.
After starting Isabelle in childcare in Febuary, she seems more open to interacting with strangers now. Maybe in a few months' time, she may be able to join some enrichment class too.
