Curriculum planning
Curriculum is planned in regard to children's interest, physical and psychological development. The principle of ‘child-oriented’ is adopted and various learning domains, including Language, Self and Society, Early Childhood Mathematics, Art and Creativity, Nature and Living, Physical Fitness and Health.
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
Individual, group and interactive team activities are organized. Whole Language Natural Learning Approach is adopted and children are encouraged to re-write stories and to create rhymes. Children also express their feelings and opinions through drawing to lay down a good foundation of language. Shared Reading Approach and Phonemic Awareness are also adopted which has strengthened children's English listening and speaking ability. The implementation of Project Learning Approach has nurtured children to learn spontaneously, to communicate with others in a friendlier attitude and to enhance their problem-solving skills and creative thinking. Situational learning activities are arranged to enrich children's daily life experience. Moreover, Orff music learning is applied and children are free to express their emotions.
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
Continuous assessment throughout the school year is adopted. In reference to the age appropriateness of children, the learning progress of each child will be kept in the ‘Children Physical and Psychological Development and Learning Record’ and ‘Individual Learning Portfolio’. Regular individual meetings with parents to discuss the growth and learning plan of children will be conducted annually.
