华文单词练习材料 – 基本颜色 (Chinese Vocabulary Practise – Basic Colors)
“I hope there is no exam, then I will enjoy learning more!”
When I heard this from my kids, I recall I have made exactly same comments when I was their age! Why there is exam? I couldn’t understand why such scary things exist in life! It is not until the year before my university entry exam I suddently realize I have a totally wrong idea about exams for so many years!
In summary, it is nothing but an partial indication on what I have learnt so far.

Mochi In a Web – Part 1 (English and Chinese version)
Mochi (a little grey mouse):”Ugh…It’s so boring…”
“I want to play but its a waste of time.”
“I want to study but it’s so dull.”
“Ugh, what do I do…”
My girl does not like mathematics, she feels it is very hard and boring, what should she do?
This is what I read from one of the books: when you don’t like certain subjects, don’t give up learning as a whole.
I am really touched by this advice. Yes when she can’t seem to understand this subject, all she needs to do is to just admit that this topic is hard for her at this moment, and then go learn something else first, something that she is interested and good at - it may not have to be a school subject. Why, it is just to keep the habit of learning/reading with her, and it will benefit her for a long time.
