PRIMARY DEVELOPMENT

Primary School

The focus of primary school is on different areas of development as:

• Language building,

• Reading readiness,

• Arithmetic and analytical skills.

Many kids join from different economic and social background in class 1st which follows different syllabi. So the curriculum of class 1st is designed in a way that ensures that kids joining us after completing pre-school or without it join seamlessly. In primary classes the focus is on core subjects like English, sciences, mathematics, fine arts and physical education. The primary school targets to build strong foundation for self-study to ensure smooth sailing through middle and high school.

Apart from academics, we try to nurture students to participate in extracurricular activities to have all round development from early years.

lANGUAGE

Language curriculum is central to the development program in primary classes. Reading, writing, speaking and comprehension are essential basic language skills for the students and most important development area for primary classes. To aid in developing language skills we follow host of activities like book reading, poetry/songs recitation, story-telling, role play, short story writing etc. As our teaching methodology stresses on classroom discussions for learning concepts, this in itself will be the best means for their language development.

Mathematics

Mathematics in primary classes is more of solving practical problems in day to day life. These include concept of numbers, time, measurement, fractions, shapes etc. To make children learn and appreciate these basic mathematical concepts, best way is to help them in solving problems related to their daily life. We follow the approach just outlined for teaching mathematics in primary classes.

Physical Education

Physical education consists of spending time playing sports and doing physical activity under supervision of an instructor. Lot of interactions happens while kids are engaged in team sports. Sports play an important part in personality development of young ones as they learn from each other, adapt to varying situations and make strategies while playing in a group. Sports enhance innate leadership qualities and children learn the spirit of life is not just winning but participation is equally important.

Fine Arts

Fine arts activities like art, music and dramatics are integral part of curriculum . We encourage children to participate in these activities as it helps them expressing their creativities in new forms.

EVS

The areas covered in this category relate to study of basic natural sciences and socialsciences.Social science is related to the community we live in and our

role in society as a whole. As part of social science curriculum, we emphasize on the importance of individual in the society as a whole and his rights and duties as an individual. These concepts will help young minds grow as socially conscious and responsible citizens.

For science part, it is more to do with the observation of surroundings by children, of experimenting in lab and hypothesizing to understand the universe and its laws. Children spend quality time in lab trying to understand the basics of natural science. To understand mother earth and nature by studying natural phenomena and living things around us form integral part of science curriculum.

Information Technology

We start quite early in primary classes on making them familiar with computers and teach them how to use its basic functionality. By end of primary years in school, students will be able to make documents, presentations, run simple programs, surf the internet and find help online for their project related works.

IT is an integral part of curriculum through the use of smart boards in classroom.

The Primary School curriculum is child-centered and activity based so that learning is made fun and enjoyable. There are exams for class 1 to 5 which includes unit tests, formative assessment and summative assessment. The school follows concept of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) wherein all cognitive, affective and psychomotor aspects of child learning is taken into account and child’s behaviour is modified to best suitable accepted level of behaviour/learning by remedial teaching.
