Meet the Parents Session on the Last Day of School

I was jogging past a secondary school near my place when I see students holding THE book. Some were with parents, some alone.

I never had this experience. We didn’t have Meet the Parents sessions back in my school days.

To my parents, it isn’t a good thing for them to go to my school.

Things have changed.

Every term or half a year, parents would be invited to schools to hear feedback and perhaps compliments about their children performance.

Looking at the expression on the child face, it must be a strange experience to have your parents go to school with you. Everyone wasn’t in their own self, chatting merrily with friends, walking without a care for the world . . . Everybody looks serious. Really serious.

How was your experience on this last day of school?

Was it a good one or a bad one? I would love to hear your experience in the comments section.

For the Secondary 4, are you ready for O levels? If your answer is no, click here.

Relationship between Music and Mathematics ?

I was at National Library (Singapore) website to renew my books when I chanced upon this blog post on “What is the relationship between classical music and mathematics?” 

I find it to be rather interesting as never have it crossed my mind that Music and Mathematics could share something common (despite the fact that I have been ‘living’ with Mathematics for the most part of my life). The 1st thing that comes to my mind was: Music is full of notes & emotion while Mathematics is full of equations, logic and steps by steps. Totally different!

I read the article and find that there indeed lurks some ‘complex’ relationship between Music and Mathematics. To further prove my shock, I Google on this question ‘is there a link between music and mathematics?’ There are almost 7 million results out of this search! with many indicating some links between Music and Mathematics!

I caught a main keyword amidst all the different articles on the similarity that both subject share: PATTERNS.

The music and math connection works both ways: it’s common for children who do well in math class to be extremely successful when it comes to playing an instrument and reading musical notes. The combination of both these skills will often lead to better overall performance in school.

From The Link Between Music and Math

Well it does not seem to apply to me. I am good in solving and coaching Mathematics :-) (Getting better and better as time goes by) but I was never good in my piano!

Though there are many studies which have confirmed the relationship of Music and Math to share some similarities to a certain extent, what are your thoughts on this question?
