Appropriate Age

3 years old (by 1st September of the enrollment year)

 

The K1 curriculum focuses on learners' physical development and learning through actions. The main consensus for all non-academic work during class time is for learners to listen, repeat and act out new vocabulary to develop their comprehension of English. All of the themes and weekly vocabulary lists are taught through storybook time, role-play, songs with actions and art & crafts activities.
