Honestly, do you think that these equations are a tad too advanced for 5-year old pre-schoolers?<\/p>\n

\nWhen I explained to her how to go about solving the equations, I really doubted that she remembered everything, i.e. what she has to do when the empty box is in front, when the empty box is behind, when it’s plus and when it’s minus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If my memory didn’t fail me, I think I was only taught these when I was in standard 2 or 3. I really don’t remember doing all these when I was a 5-yo pre-schooler. I only remembered I knew how to count from 1-100 when I was 5-yo and I remember playing and singing a lot in kindy…. definitely not doing Math equations.<\/p>\n

\nI have to say that Alycia has improved and caught up with her peers by the leaps and bounds since early this year. She can now do her Math homework by herself (she always insists that she wants to do it by herself) though most times I still sit next to her to ensure that she did it correctly.
\nAlycia did this exercise on her own and she got almost\u00a0all correct, with a couple of careless mistakes.<\/p>\n
