During my class, I really liked acting, reading, singing and playing games. I want to join the programme again.

I enjoyed the warm-up activities that we did. I also learnt more about English. Next time I would like the same teacher to teach us again.

Transition to P1
Ease the transition from Kindergarten to Primary 1 with:
- Bridging for Better Readers: reading comprehension and writing skills, vocabulary and basic grammar rules
- Bridging for Average Readers: phonemic awareness, blending and emphasis on word families
- Bridging for Weak Readers: letter recognition and phonemic awareness of consonants or short and long vowels
I liked doing the worksheets and learning about short and long vowels.
