Linus For Primary 1 Students

Sherilyn has been accepted into the same Chinese primary school that Alycia is going to now. All primary 1 kids are now compelled to sit for a government LINUS test to gauge the child's efficacy in the national language - Bahasa Malaysia. Kids who are weak in BM will be placed in a special class, where they will be given extra lessons.

Here is just one of the lists given to the kids, which is the same list given to Alycia 2 years ago. All the kids have to know the suku kata and how words are formed using suku kata.




This book is something that's new, which was not given to Alycia 2 years ago. Again, the Primary 1 kids must know how to read all the words in the book, I think, else they will be placed in a special class.


Rascal #2 trying to read all the words. Thank God she's catching up, albeit she needs tons and tons of pushing, threats and bribes.

Chin Nee, there was no notification fr the school on this test when Alycia sat for it last yr. She did not even realized that she sat for the test. I think it is an informal thing. You can call the school to find out when the test is. Streaming only starts in P2.

I knew about this Linus from my April too. A teacher is identified to teach this group of students separately.

Hey...ignore my previous message on the girls chinese tutor....though I am interested on her contact and how much she charges.
This Linus is for chinese primary only or all primary kids?

Ann, yes I think Linus is only for Government Chinese primary school kids. The Mandarin tutor only teaches around KL area. If you want the contact, pls email me.
