Limit the time students spend focusing on the teacher: Students are given more opportunity to ask questions and take part in meaningful discussions with each other.
Rotating station activities: activities are allocated to areas around the room, small groups move from one station to the next to explore different concepts; this means that all students are active participants in their learning.
Learning through play: students are given the time, space and resources to explore different concepts and make discoveries by themselves.
Work in collaboration with other learners: students can test out ideas and are encouraged to figure out solutions by themselves. Our classrooms are characterized by inquiry, discovery, creativity, problem solving and self direction which enable each student’s individuality and potential to be maximized in a multi-faceted, high quality learning environment. Finally, we acknowledge that education is a partnership between students, parents and dedicated staff.
