Grade 1 to Grade 6
The curriculum for grades 1 to 6 marks a significant phase in a child's educational development, focusing on foundational academic skills and knowledge. In the early grades, particularly grades 1 and 2, the emphasis is on core subjects such as reading, writing, and basic mathematics. Students learn to read and comprehend simple texts, write basic sentences and paragraphs, and understand fundamental arithmetic concepts like addition, subtraction, and counting. This stage is crucial for building the skills needed for more complex learning. In addition to academics, there is a strong focus on developing social skills, encouraging creativity through arts and crafts, and introducing basic science and social studies concepts to provide a rounded education.
As students progress into the upper grades (grades 3 to 6), the curriculum becomes more comprehensive and challenging. Subjects are explored in greater depth, with a stronger emphasis on analytical thinking and problem-solving skills. Mathematics covers more advanced topics, including multiplication, division, fractions, and decimals. In language arts, students work on reading comprehension, grammar, and writing skills, producing more structured essays and engaging in critical discussions. Science and social studies curricula expand to cover topics such as earth sciences, biology, history, and geography. Additionally, students are often introduced to technology and digital literacy, preparing them for the increasingly digital world. Throughout these years, the curriculum aims to foster independence, critical thinking, and a love for learning, laying a solid foundation for secondary education and beyond.
