    Seriously, do we really need to teach our kids how to spell all the different types of flowers at K2? Chrysanthe..what??? I can bet you some of the JC kids I'm teaching probably wouldn't be able to spell "enthusiastic" at 17! Gosh, and what's with "sentimental"? How to explain the meaning to a 6-y-o?

      Amie, mine is neighbourhood child care centre, not those with sky high school fees. However I am grateful that I am paying such an amount to the school who has good curriculum and excellent teachers but sometimes it really pains me to see him struggle with school work that is suppose to be for older kids.

    wow K2?? it's not just the spelling, but the meanings behind the words are a little difficult I reckon for a 6 y/o.

    To me, seems like the only way to spell these words is by rote/drilling. That totally defeats the purpose of the exercise. What's the point coz how often would we be using dahlia unless he is gonna be a florist / botanist who do not even use these common names. Poor kid. :/ Petunia is also the name of Harry Potter's aunt. :p

      Yupe drilling n going through over n over again. Of course we try to make it interesting by letting him type out the words in google search so that he can see what is that word. He's very excited when he does that.
