Prior to the opening of Season Arts, Taiwan’s educational system emphasized heavily on the importance of interdisciplinary teaching in high schools. The founder of Season Arts kindergarten thought this system was necessary not only just for the older students but also for those of kindergarten age. The results and success we gained from the commitment to interdisciplinary teaching meant that the Season Arts teaching philosophy has become truly revolutionary in Taiwan. Season Arts is unique in its desire to provide an enhanced interdisciplinary program
The method of implementing integrated, interdisciplinary instruction at Season Arts is the thematic approach, characteristics of this include:
. A broad subject such as transportation or water.
. A duration of about 3 months to allow in depth investigations on the subject.
. The theme is studied and integrated in more than one content area.
