Curriculum planning
|
Our school is an authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) World School.
Our curriculum is inquiry based which encourages children to ask questions and participate in problem-solving activities to foster children’s self-exploration, self-discovery and self-construction experiences. We use an early childhood-specific framework for maker-centered learning while also nurturing other generative cognitive dispositions and habits of mind at this critical stage of development. We are also a partner school with Columbia University's Teachers College Reading and Writing Project. The children learn skills and strategies to become confident readers and writers in both English and Chinese.
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
English, Cantonese and Putonghua are used as the medium of instruction. Immersion method of learning is used to allow the children to become fully immersed in English, Cantonese and Putonghua. The children will naturally develop listening and speaking skills, while laying a firm foundation for reading and writing.
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
Systematic observations and records are an ongoing type of assessment in school. We also collect samples of the children’s work continuously throughout the school year in order to document their learning progress.
