I asked if he had anything to share with the minister, he said, ” Our names are pronouced similarly, I am Tsui Kwit and he is Swee Keat. I just want to share with him that our names are alike.”

BrandonChanment & Clement

Have a lesson observation this morning. Ms Cindy was teaching the students a new suffix. It was to add ‘ment’ to the baseword.

Ms Cindy: Govern + ment = Government.
Its meaning is a group of
people taking care of a
country. Can you give me some
words which end with ‘ment’?

Brandon : I have a word. It’s
BrandonChanment. It means
there is a group of people
called Brandon Chan. And I
have another word.
It’s “Clement”, our classmate.
