29 Dec 2012 - Parent Teacher Meeting Day

We met up with Jerlene's and Javier's teachers today at the childcare centre to understand their progress in development.  Jerlene had been doing well in general.  She's well liked by her teachers and classmates.  According to her teachers, she always wanted to be first in doing everything.  She also likes to help out the teachers such as wiping the table, shifting the chairs etc.  As she knew a lot of songs from all the music videos that she had at home, there were times where her teacher even asked her to teach the class how to sing those songs.  Academically, she's doing ok and in terms of the creativity and artistic areas, she excels among the class.

As for Javier, he's also coping well in class.  However, the teacher noticed that he may be a little introvert at times.  Sometimes when all his classmates went out to the playground, he'll rather stay in the class and do his own thing.  I would say that he's rather stubborn.  The more you want him to do certain thing, the more he will not do it....even though in his heart, he actually wanted to.  That's why we always called him "the opposition party (反对党)"!  Anyway, at his age, he seems to be pretty "matured" and is also good at artwork like his sister.
