Tim always get his inspiration when we are back in Timbaktoo. Guess there's less stress over the weekends and the great mind gets to work better.

wahlao eh, ask me la! quickly lah! bravo Tim!

[timroy]

I should have brought the real thing over to show you. You will laugh till all your hair drop man.

[daynema]

hahah, cute la Tim! and to think he could try to spell quickly as cwicli, which is techinically correct leh!

[timroy]

he is too phoenetically geared cos his visual always fail him and he can never remember how to spell through learning by sight.

actually the story is pretty impressive leh! i couldnt really recite a - z when i was in pri 1...serious! no kidding.

I also blur blur when I was in Primary 1. Nowadays...sigh *shake head* expectations on P1 are so high. He had loads of homework everyday. Poor boy.

errr..."quickly"?? hehe...that was very good!! well done Timmy!! :)

[timroy]

yeh! you are correct. thank you

[mathtoyz]

Wah! this is a very good effort on his part.

All creative writing teachers are encouraged not to impose spelling rules on the kids at this age...may kill the interest in writing. His spelling errors here can be forgiven cos they sound phonetically similar to the actual words. e.g. Cam - cos e is silent, bac - typical of asians as we always leave out the last consonants when we talk, wif - he forgot his green series "th" etc

[timroy]

that's why I told him not to erase the wrong words and change it. I merely told him how to spell correctly on a separate paper.

wah... he is good!! well done Timmy!

how to work on his visual perception?

[timroy]

lots of memory games, brain gym -e.g figure of 8 which we are working on now.
