daily task-based English lesson relating to the weekly theme.
Program
Our activities fall into three categories: classroom-based activities with a more academic focus, physical-based activities that focus more on movement, and daily English lessons. Every week, there's going to be a different theme that the kids can dive into to explore new and exciting facts.
‘Academic’ activities are based in our classrooms but may be taken outside if the weather is nice. These activities focus on developing skills such as critical thinking, emotional intelligence, self-awareness, politeness, sharing and collaboration. The subject may be art, math, science, history, or whatever sparks the interest of your child. Once per day, as part of our Academic Activities, the kids will have English lessons. The purpose of these lessons is to focus on a particular task such as a role play, a game, or a project. This allows students to gain real-world skills whilst collaborating with and learning from their friends. More advanced speakers can help their friends to navigate the games and activities that will make language learning a fun and unforgettable experience.
‘Movement’ activities take place outside (weather allowing) or in our sports hall or dance studio. These activities focus on developing skills such as discipline, teamwork, respect and sportsmanship, and spatial awareness. We aim for children to feel confident alone or in a team, in competition or just having fun. The daytime activities will be divided into low-impact and high-impact. Some of them will include walks, stretching, or yoga, while others will involve more competitive games, including more running and active sports like karate, basketball, football, etc.
