Curriculum planning
|
|
Our curriculum strives to simultaneously integrate the merits of Chinese and Western cultures and education. We design the child-centered Chinese and English school-based curriculum according to children’s physical and mental developmental needs, interest and abilities. We strive to develop children’s learning abilities, establish language foundation in Chinese, English and Putonghua, as well as develop their self-confidence and independence.
|
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
|
Through the Thematic Approach and the Project Approach, we develop children’s learning abilities in various aspects. Through integrated teaching and story-approach, incorporating a variety of diversified learning activities and outings, children are able to gain first hand experience, explore, study and develop a multitude of hands on experiences. Children’s communication, collaboration, thinking and problem-solving skills are also strengthened through fun learning approaches and thereby cultivate personal character.
|
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
|
Through continuous observation, we record and assess children’s learning performances. We provide guidance according to children’s individual differences. We create personal development portfolio to record children’s learning progress.
