1. Why do children need to attend pre-primary school?
Pre-primary school is a necessary curriculum to help children get used to the lessons and living habits of primary school.
When children turn 5 years old, it is a time when their psychology gradually becomes disturbed, they begin to get bored with the easy skill activities of younger ages and want bigger challenges for themselves. At the same time, at this stage, the skeletal system in the child’s body is also shaped more stably and flexibly. The finger bones are connected together and longer to be ready to respond to more skillful fine motor skills such as drawing, sewing, knitting… and especially writing.
The stage from 5 to 6 is the “opportunity” stage to help children have a healthy spirit and the necessary skills to be ready to enter a new level of education, a new turn in their path to adulthood.
2. When will children start pre-primary school:
Some places may advise parents to let their children start pre-primary school 3-4 months before they actually enter grade 1. However, at Fairy School, we believe that “haste makes waste” – everything needs to be built slowly, happily and steadily, especially when it comes to educating a person.
Therefore, Fairy School’s pre-primary program will start in August every year – when the new school year begins and is exclusively for the Happy 6 block (children from 5-6 years old). age)
3. What will preschoolers learn?
Preschool is not a miniature elementary school, but a completely separate program. We understand that children still need hours of play and learning in preschool, and still need serious hours of primary school, along with important life skills when entering grade 1.
Pre-primary classes will include the following subjects:
- Math: arithmetic and mental math
- Vietnamese: reading, coloring and writing
- English
- Science discovery
- Physical
- Skills living:
- Self-service / self-care skills
- Self-protection skills
- Getting to know each other, making friends
- Listening skills
- Public speaking skills
- Emotional management skills
- Basic manners: greeting, saying thank you, apologizing
- Behavioral skills with teachers
And extracurricular activities – picnics.
4. The role of pre-primary classes?
Parents can understand that, children are in the stage of being playful and just recognizing letters and numbers, but when they have to move to the stage of serious study at school, it takes time for them to stabilize their psychology and gradually get used to studying. Therefore, pre-primary classes were created to help parents equip their children with the spirit and a systematic learning environment.
Pre-primary classes are not to force children to learn first grade knowledge in advance as people often think. Instead, it helps children get used to the new learning atmosphere, sit in a new position, help them concentrate and hold a pen correctly.
Pre-primary classes also help children build important life skills such as: self-care skills, self-protection skills, skills to make new friends, how to behave with teachers differently from how to behave with female teachers…
5. Is there a fee for pre-primary classes?
When children study at Fairy School, they will study pre-primary school without any additional costs. Parents can be completely assured that all children studying at Fairy School are very confident and ready to enter grade 1.
