Curriculum planning
|
Our developmentally appropriate curriculum nurtures a loving heart, cultivates the mind, develops potentials and promotes creativity. Through joyful learning, specially designed curriculum in linguistic, STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), art, music and physical activities, students are confidence and proactive learners; ready for both local and international primary schools.
In compliance with EdB’s Pre-primary school’s curriculum guideline (2017), our students will not be engaged in any writing activities in K1. Nor do we give excessive homework and repetitious exercises to our students.
We will follow the "Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide" (2017) to plan curriculum. Children of nursery classes will not be asked to write, and there will not be mechanical copying exercises and drills on calculation.
|
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
|
Through “theme based” and “inquiry based” activities, students learn in small groups. Through interacting with caring teachers, students develop their linguistic, music, art and motor skills. Our “Free choice Learning Corners” and “Free Play Areas” give children ownership of their learning experience. It’s a way for children to expand on what they are learning and explore their own interests. Supporting young children’s autonomy has been found to have far-reaching positive effects on the child’s development, including benefits to executive function, mastery-related behaviours and general socialisation.
|
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
|
A student’s portfolio is a record of students’ involvement in learning which is designed to demonstrate success, growth, higher-order thinking, creativity, assessment strategies, and reflection. It provides a picture of each student’s progress and development of knowledge, conceptual understanding, transdisciplinary skills, attitudes and the attributes of the learner profile over a period of time both as an individual learner and as group learners.
