Curriculum planning
|
A child-centred curriculum arranged in the spiral and progressive approach. It corresponds to the development and interests of children of different ages. Knowledge in 6 key areas is integrated in themes in line with children’s life experiences. Through various activities and interesting games, children are stimulated to bring into play their potentials for ‘holistic development’ to foster the life learning attitude.
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
|
|
Integrated themes and specially designed activities are used to promote children’s learning interests and ability. Teaching is conducted in large and small classes. Learning corners with rich contents are created to foster self-directed learning. Children’s curiosity and want to learn are aroused through scientific explorations. Electronic teaching methods and games are used to make learning more interesting. Various campus and off-campus activities and visits, performances and competitions are arranged to help children develop self-confidence and broaden the horizon.
There are English and Chinese class teachers in each classroom so that children can communicate in Cantonese and English with their teachers. Each week there is also a Mandarin lesson. Through the diversified learning activities, the children’s listening, speaking, reading and writing skills can be improved. In English teaching, the school mainly focus on teaching children phonics, so that young learners can achieve higher level in spelling, reading and writing eventually.
In our kindergarten we use Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics education. It allows children to participate in exploring, hands-on learning, and experiencing the construction of knowledge. Children learn science through a program which is based on active tasks and cognitive activities.
|
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
|
A ‘profile on learning assessment’ is kept. Thematic assessments, ongoing observations and recording of children’s learning and behavioral performances are done by teachers. Joint assessments are done by home and school so that both parties better understand a child’s learning progress.
