Grade 1 - Budding Learners Program

We preserve every child’s unique talents and or strengths in a subject or a specific topic by nurturing them. Our curriculum provides for differentiation in many ways, so children feel challenged in their strong subjects and supported in subjects that are challenging. We engage a child’s strengths to instill confidence and resourcefulness to progress themselves in both strong and not so strong learning areas.

First grade is a balanced mix of free play(self directed), and structured (guided) learning activities. The idea is to create a broad exposure to the topic of interest with various activities while emphasizing foundational understanding (of the basic concept/idea) so children can discover their own interests and learning patterns in the process.We  create pathways for self understanding – ability to know clearly and reflect on their own likes, preferences, and choices,  self management – labelling feelings and thoughts and calming strategies, and self development – developing good character and leadership traits.

Our lesson plans – content and classroom projects, and activities are carefully, and consciously designed to cater to all types of learners(visual, auditory, kinesthetic, verbal, math, interpersonal, interpersonal and nature learners) and to engage multiple intelligences. We provide many opportunities for children to learn, and display their emerging self understanding, and self management skills.

We create super fun, engaging, interactive & nurturing learning scaffolds, for our wonderful first graders, empowering them with knowledge and skills, and instilling confidence & autonomy in their learning journey onwards and upwards.
