  • Interactive Learning: Children engage in hands-on activities like creating a model habitat for animals, planting seeds and observing growth, or role-playing different community helper roles. These activities help them understand concepts through direct experience.
  • Material Use: We utilize a variety of materials such as clay, building blocks, recycled items, and natural objects to enhance sensory and cognitive development.

  • Teamwork: Projects are often conducted in small groups to foster teamwork. Children learn to share ideas, listen to others, and work collaboratively towards a common goal.
  • Peer Learning: Working in groups allows children to learn from one another, developing social skills and enhancing their learning through peer interactions.

Research and Exploration

  • Question-Based Learning: Educators encourage children to ask questions and seek answers. For example, in a project about plants, children might explore questions like "What do plants need to grow?" or "How do different plants look?"
  • Investigation: Children are guided to conduct simple investigations. They might observe changes in plant growth, compare different animal habitats, or interview community helpers. This process helps them develop research skills and a deeper understanding of the subject matter.

Presentation Skills

Presentation Skills

  • Project Presentations: Upon completing a project, children present their findings to their peers and teachers. They might create a poster, make a simple presentation, or share a model they built. This process helps build confidence and communication skills.
  • Parental Involvement: Parents are often invited to attend presentations, fostering a sense of community and allowing children to showcase their learning achievements.
