Description
Show and Tell recognizes that young learners need preparation for our 21st-century world. As such, skills such as communication, critical thinking, creativity and collaboration will form a vital part of their future.
'How do we make music?', 'Who makes you happy?', 'What can you find outside?'
The tried and trusted Show and Tell methodology will prepare your child for school readiness and future success. The great variety of activities ensure that different learning styles are accommodated, and all our students will be able to produce language at different levels according to their ability.
Benefits

The development of fine motor skills is gradual and flexible, in keeping with the differing needs of individual children.
The units contain stories, games, songs and chants, craftwork, and simple experiments. Problem-solving activities will encourage your child to think critically and creatively. Additionally, values lessons teach your child how to behave both inside and outside the classroom.
