Course Description: | The program for children up to 3 years places a strong emphasis on learning the English language (English Language Learning) combined with a Western style of early childhood care, which focuses on 'learning through play' in a stimulating and attractive environment. The nature of the program provides many natural opportunities for the children to use the English language through social contact with teachers and other children. All students participate in daily teaching lessons and join in with class activities and games. Language development is an essential feature for both native and non-Native speakers. Daily teaching sessions are an important focus of the day where the teacher plays an active role in modeling and teaching new vocabulary, common English structures, and pronunciation to best promote language learning. A theme-based approach is incorporated, suitable with the age and interests of the children. Unit topics include Me, Myself and I, Study of Plants and Seeds, Colors and Shapes, Seasons, Animal Kingdom, Song, Dance, and Drama. Drama performances are presented twice yearly. Although the emphasis at this age is on the acquisition of spoken language this is balanced with time for physical education to enhance hand-eye coordination, balance and to aid strength development. The physical education programme includes water play, sandpit, dance, movement to music, outdoor and indoor games, nature walks in the grounds, ball handling skills, as well as activities involving running, jumping, hopping and skipping. Full use is made of the wading pool, outdoor play equipment and soft-room facilities under close supervision. Particular attention is paid to safety and sanitation. Our aim is to provide many stimulating and varied opportunities for positive interactions and experiences to encourage the children to think, problem solve, imagine, create and learn. The Nursery class provides a warm and stable environment to foster learning, and help build confidence and self-esteem in the children. The emphasis is based on positive attitudes for children to learn in a happy and caring environment. | |
