Our Pedagogy
Fun & Games
The use of games is significant in our SEL class. They support collaborative efforts, negotiation, problem-solving, and teamwork. Children learn so much when they make connections between these activities and their social or personal lives.
Art, Stories and Role Play
When it comes to helping kids understand themselves, convey their ideas, or explore their emotions, art is incredibly powerful. Drama and stories act as mirrors for young audiences. When kids read books, watch movies, or even watch a brief play, they relate to the characters and remember the lessons the stories teach them.
Critical Inquiry
Inquiry-oriented learning is a pedagogical approach, which encourages learners to ask questions and find answers to them through their own or through collective observation, experience, thinking, reasoning, and judgment.
