Our team is dedicated to ensuring a safe and fun environment for young children. Their duties include setting up creative and educational activities. They are also responsible for the wellbeing of the children they care for.
We firmly think that kids learn best through playtime and activities. Our highly qualified teaching staff designs child-centered, child development activities that help kids build their self-esteem, self-confidence, and social skills. Despite the fact that children are constantly watched over and supervised, we encourage independence and self-determination.
Our Teaching Methodology
At LKA, we put a lot of effort into creating the perfect environment to allow our children to grow and mature. Our teaching methodology is a mix of several approaches that foster basic intellectual and social foundations. To build these foundations, our educators implement several teaching methods that challenge children to express themselves while learning.
Curriculum
LKA academy curriculum is designed to provide an early education that will promote competency and successful mastery of early developmental tasks. Our curriculum was specifically designed to assist and guide your child through the most crucial stages of his/her early development.
We believe that the curriculum is the whole learning experience in which children, parents, staff and the community are all involved.
- Personal, Social and Emotional development.
- Communication, Language, and Literacy
- Problem Solving, Reasoning and Numeracy
- Knowledge and Understanding of the World
- Creative development
- Physical Development
Independent learning is constantly encouraged, as is co-operation and consideration for others. Recording your child’s progress takes place on a daily basis and these records are available to share with you. They will be passed on to your monthly as records of their achievement.
The academy environment indoors and outside is carefully planned so a balance of activities is available. Your child will be involved in a wide range of activities with opportunities for structured and free play.
The 4 Stages of Development
At LKA academy, we have designed a curriculum around those 4 early stages of development, and built a foundation for kids to learn, play and grow in our state-of-the-art facility under the care of our nurturing educators and staff
Cooperative Learning:
Cooperative learning is a teaching method that groups students into pairs or small groups where they are challenged to complete a task. This teaching method promotes peer-to-peer respect and develops the understanding of each other’s interest, skills and needs. Furthermore, it encourages students to take control of their own learning experience by providing ample opportunity for them to express and share their personal concerns, feelings, and thoughts. Group task in cooperative learning is structured to involve the entire group and can’t be completed by only one person. The teacher should monitor group activity and intervene when necessary to clarify instructions and demonstrate good team behavior.
Hands On Approach
The hands-on approach is a teaching method that encourages students to learn by doing and by example. Using props helps students to learn about abstract concepts, develop critical thinking and solve problems. Teaching students about basic math concepts such as addition and subtraction, for example, might involve the use of board games. Computers also play a role in hands-on learning when students are encouraged to learn a concept through an education game or in an interactive multimedia format. Again, students are encouraged to be actively involved in their own education.
Conference Learning:
Conference learning is a teaching method that gives a teacher one-on-one time with each student. This works best while the other students are engaged in an activity or play time, which will help tailor lessons, activities.
The Play Method:
An Ideal kindergarten classroom is a safe environment that provides ample opportunity for children to play, which in turn develops confidence and social skills. The first step to play as a teaching method is observation – then the teacher can structure the play. Teachers should do so without dominating or directing the play, but by sharing the experience with the children and presenting ideas and materials that will help extend the play into a learning experience. If children at play are having an imaginary era party, for example, the teacher should knock on the door and ask to join, sit at the table and drink imaginary tea. The play is extended when the teacher asks questions about what’s being served introduces new vocabulary and adds ideas.
