    PHONETICS

    Phonetics awareness, or the ability to hear fine distinctions between sounds, blend sounds together to form words, and break words into individual sounds, is essential for learning to read . Kindergarten programs in our school build in a variety of activities that promote phonetic awareness, from rhyming games to sorting objects beginning with the same sounds, to reading books involving language play.

    ABC's AND 123's ARE A KEY PART OF THE SCHOOL'S LEARNING GOALS

    focus on cognitive areas such as ABCs and 123s matters enormously. For example, how well a child reads at the end of first grade predicts how well they read in later grades. graduation rates and even their income level as an adult. Stepping Stone and The Summit help ready children advance beyond age norms, but also nurture children who are behind so they catch up in these early years. Age appropriate books are distributed. Lot of opportunities are given for the childern to learn and write and to understand the way the print works. To imbibe the See & Learn technique, videos related to the subjects are show through the projectors. The primary objective of our school is to provide an environment for the children where they can express their self to the fullest. They first learn how to communicate , play and interact with others. These we do by involving them in game, music and outdoor play. Also simultaneously prepare the kids for formal education. These we do by teaching them three languages (English, Kannada and Hindi), numbers, environment science, morel science, computers, general knowledge and developing personal and social skills. Our school incorporates the principles of Montessori as well. Groups are small and are carefully su pervised. Speccific individual needs will also be catered to. .
