FOUNDATION PROGRAMME NURSERY , KG1 , KG2 , I , II

In the initial years, the child’s brain undergoes major development at a rapid pace . At this age a child learns morals and values. With an aim to incorporate maximum learning at this stage, following the spirit of New Education Policy NEP 2020 , at Vinayam Public School we have constructed a unique curriculum for our Foundation Program students of Nursery, K1, K2, Grade I and Grade II. The tiny tots of our Foundation classes hold enormous talent waiting to be sparked through just the right push that they need. The vibrant learning environment for these children, is a mix of several methodologies such as Montessori, Play-way theory supported by “: Mylestone” curriculum. These when combined together, make their journey a bright and colorful one. We focus on strengthening the foundation of learning by encouraging curiosity and independent thinking in the classrooms. Each child is motivated to ask questions and experience the learning first hand. Our multi-sensory learning approach looks after the overall development of the child. We have a wide range of “ Mylestone “ programme where through a creative approach of phonetics, we ensure our students with fluency in reading. Each alphabet is introduced to the students as a story through visual and audio aids. Similarly, Numeracy is taught with hands-on learning approach, through creative numeric toys and kits.

TEACHING METHODOLOGY-
  • Our teaching methodology “ Mylestone” is a combination of international teaching methods and basic concepts of traditional values. Each classroom has its own learning culture encouraging creative and application-based learning.
  • The NEP 2020 has put Pre - primary and Grades I & II in Foundation Program, where a child can make use of his skills in Primary classes. This ensures each student in Foundation Program instills a habit of learning the basic concepts of each subject.
  • Young minds are easily impressionable which is why we intend to make them comfortable in stepping out of their comfort zones to learn and florish.
  • Encourage them to gain excellence in moral and social values.
  • Become courageous and active.
  • Become selfless worker to serve the nation and a true patriot.
