Kindergarten Teaching Methodologies

“As a teacher you may teach a class, but each child should still feel uniquely taught.” Robert John Meehan.

In Kindergarten we believe in student-led demonstration, such as show and tell, or the sharing of an individual’s ideas and thoughts. In our campus children have an opportunity to communicate their new knowledge to everyone around through brainstorming,and it helps them to build their confidence, but it often takes children time to find the correct words to explain their thinking and this is a ecstasy for kids to voice their thoughts without having to worry about right or wrong and at the end they come up with their newly discovered words.We maintain a classroom atmosphere of tenderness and acceptance, because for kids, classrooms are one of the few places where their opinions, ideas and feelings are being heard and cherished.

We provide a classroom environment that is well-decorated, and full of fun, creativity and engaging, to stimulate a child’s mind to explore and encourage them to learn with ease. Tiny tots cannot likely sit all day and learn, so we give them an environment that has positive vibes.

Our teachers contemplate on effectual kindergarten teaching because we know that children develop physically and advance academically, socially and artistically at different levels.Dr. Stuart Brown rightly says that “Nothing lights up a child’s brain like play” and therefore we consent our kids to go for walks around the school campus, and to involve themselves in circuit activities to rejuvenate their Fine and Gross Motor skills. We encourage practice puzzles that help their imagination nurture and flourish, and also to do role plays of stories, which is a great way to make children step out of their comfort zone and expand their interpersonal skills.

We strictly value and believe the saying “Be diligent in believing that what we do in the classroom could possibly echo for a lifetime in the heart of a student” and therefore introduce new topics which encourage children to explore. For example a child exploring the Life Cycle of a butterfly, can express his/her new knowledge in different ways. Kids are then encouraged to act out what they learnt with creative movements, painting the same on a paper, and demonstrating and labeling the stages as an activity or listening to related stories and songs. We provide lots of Practice, Instructions, and Time to learn new skills and concepts. Kids are also exposed to forms of visual exercises that will enthuse the young minds and capture their interest.

Kindergarten kids are motivated to be innovative with lots of Worksheets, homework and hands on activities that are common in kindergarten classrooms and which surprises many parents who are accustomed to a play-based approach to kindergarten. We incorporate audio-visual materials in our classrooms by introducing models, movies, picture cards and real world experiences to enrich classroom learning and to make their learning easy. In simple words we follow the approach “If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn,” and this definitely glints their interest and gets them excited and involved.

Field trips are organized to mark their childhood memories and experiences and thereby also promoting experiential learning.

Our Kindergarten Teachers at Holy Sai work together as a team, and their collaborative efforts have shown great results. Teachers work together to come up with interesting teaching strategies every day for their class. At Holy Sai we strive to engrave in the hearts of our kids, everything good they learn and encourage them to practice the same in our society.
