Proud Mama to Bembem


Alyssa Otero: First Place on General Knowledge Quiz

This is my Mom breaking news just after lunch today, actually my daughter request me to accompany her on school because she will be competing to the other kinder students in their school, she was assign to compete under General Knowledge topic. Unfortunately I have to miss this and I request my mother to be there in school and according to her the quiz was held inside a room so all guardians/fetchers should have to wait outside.  

Prior to this I post some urgent needed help about this to the ever reliant smartparenting mailing list because I don’t have any idea what topic do I have to review with my daughter. Even last Sunday we didn’t have an actual review after Teacher Maricel drop us a call just to remind us the time they require us to be there.

But here it is and my daughter called me I my office and told me she won!!!!  And she remind me to bring ‘pasalubong’, Dunkin Donut actually.

I’m not a typical full time mom that always have time to teach my child everyday, that’s why I’m very thankful that even thought I’m not 100% dedicated in my child, she’s more than an average kid in her school. And also my mom helps us  lot in teaching her only ‘apo’, I feel her excitement when my daughter participate in this kind of activity.

3rd Grading Exam


This week is the 3rd Grading period of Bembem and today is her Math and Science exam, and according to her she thinks she only had few errors. But after the exam, her teacher advised us that my daughter will join some students to participate in a quiz, particularly in General Knowledge quiz this coming Monday. And I have only 2 days to have a review with my daughter and considering that tomorrow I will also have my last day of our MS Access Training wherein we have a case study on the spot exam.

This will only on Saturday morning, but I’m still worried if we still have enough time to have a review. Oh my, this is so toxic!!!!!!

Anyway I’m glad that Bembem had this opportunity at least she’s not that behind in terms of academic activity. I hope that she still have interest in this when she’s in elementary, I preferred her to be active in this kind of activity. Meanwhile I have to check some educational site or materials that I can use for our review.
