Social studies and science pique her curiosity to learn new things. Vocabulary, language, and cognitive skills, as well as character and social development, complete this popular kindergarten program through language enrichment, music, art, and skills development time.

Primary 1 to 3

Your child will gain a lifelong enthusiasm for reading as he learns to read using the school phonics-first approach. You’ll see your child master phonics and watch his reading comprehension skills grow as he reads delightful stories with character-building themes. As his reading and spelling skills improve, creative writing becomes a natural outflow as he organizes thoughts into sentences and applies his grammar knowledge in order to communicate. Learning and practicing the proper formation of letters and the correct spacing between letters, words, and sentences helps perfect writing skills for a good overall appearance. Learning computation skills, problem-solving skills, and how to apply arithmetic concepts exercises his reasoning and thinking abilities. In science, health, and history and geography, he’ll learn about God’s world and begin to appreciate it more as he ventures into a biographical study of people who made an impact on World of Nations. Most importantly, studying lives of real people in the Bible will help him learn how to respond to situations in his own life. Finally, art rounds out the academic program.
