He shows the 7 sign as in like a gun
Gemma: 7!
Me: then?

He shows all 10 fingers, and clapping hands.

Parents-Teacher Session

Last Sat, we went to meet the teachers for the kids update in school.

Feedback from Jasper teachers are...

"he is quiet boy""his command of English is rather good""he shows improvement as in sometimes able to volunteer to ans questions and others task like playing the lion dance"

The chinese teacher also commented that he doesn't recognise his chinese name so need to practise recognising more at home. Both teachers agree that he doesn't show interest in colouring and do practise more colouring and cutting at home. But they say he is v keen in singing and have the rhythm and actions for every song. :)

Later we went to meet Gemma teachers too.

Feedback from Gemma teachers are...

"she is quite quiet" "but recently this week she dare to speak out esp if other kids snatch her things... she will scream" it's mine!!!" "
"so she can be quite fierce but she doesn't snatch other kids toys from their hands. she will ask permission" "she is v cute n I wish to hug her at times even if she only wanna hold hands""her fav fruit is watermelon" "she can paste art work diligently on the sheet""she speak quite softly"

Both Jasper and Gemma teachers said they have some problems in eating... which I agree too. For jasper, it has improved and teacher say in fact his class there are a few like him. For Gemma, teachers commented if she love tat food, she can eat 1 whole bowl. minimum amt they will force is at least half bowl.

Strange that the 2 kids are so quiet in school... at home it is totally diff.. screaming running, voices everywhere... fighting... teachers are amazed n thot i m bluffing them... no joke.
