January 2023 - Lower Primary (G1-4) Philosophy & Practice

Lower Primary (G1 - 4) is all about gaining, inculculating and developing the skills and attitudes needed for success in Middle School and beyond. 

Although the sessions and examples are in English, the approaches are suitable for programmes in other languages. These sessions are also valuable for Early Years (PK - K) and Upper Primary / Middle School (G5 - 8) teaching and learning.
