Department Of KG

The KG curriculum of San Academy Velachery and its innovation and conception started at this campus 11 years ago.

Raising children is a great responsibility of any parent to build a great futuristic society, San Academy partners this responsibility with today’s parents to give the world wonderful humans with compassion with confidence with complete knowledge to survive in today’s competitive world.the right time to start them is when they are young.

The most sought after KG Curriculum by young generation parents was started by carefully observing children between the age group of 2 to 5 years of age.

Constant study of a child’s way of understanding and improvisation formulated one of the finest methodologies based on the theory of multiple intelligences in child development especially during the formative years.

During the early formative years every child is uniquely designed to learn through observation and copying mannerism from its available environment. If any child can be given everything good at its early life no child can suffer on lack of intelligence which forms the basis of survival.

Based on this concept of giving everything good and noble San Academy Velachery creates the environment that is so wonderful that any child walking into this campus is blessed to learn through this uniquely designed curriculum that aims to educate the child through the approach developed by renowned psychologist of Prof. Howard Gardner’s from the Harvard School of Education.

San Academy Velachery is not a play school but it’s the beginning of your child’s first beautiful step towards education.

The Kinder garten classes are always colorful, vibrant and positive creating an environment where the child learns to play while learning. Both indoor activity and outdoor activity is uniquely crafted for a child to enjoy every activity which is guided by teachers so that the child learns the right way.

Thematic representation of concept helps the child to understand the contextual framework of the subject. Guided games and activity builds necessary functionalism to develop various intelligences in a child.

Special events help the child to participate in events, thereby the child learns through various stimuli of learning that ignites brain development and physical development laying the foundation of good value based education right during the formative years.

At the end of every special event the children are given special gifts to keep them motivated about learning and to help them build memories of happy learning and happy schooling.

SHOW AND TELL

For Kindergarteners of San Academy , Show and Tell is a time to share some of their favorite toys, photos, and hobbies with teachers and friends. It is also a time to develop important communication and social skills.

In Kindergarten, the student must learn to speak clearly, guide a listener to understand important ideas, describe people, places, things and locations, increase vocabulary, speak in complete sentences, follow and create a sequence, and paraphrase what they have heard.

These early language experiences help to build effective communication and listening skills that are essential for a young child’s learning. It also encourages emotional development in a child, as he or she shares their interests and joys with peers. In addition, this socially rewarding experience helps to solidify important home-school connections, particularly when Show and Tell is aligned with the curriculum.

Through this activity , the school provides opportunities for our Preschool students to develop these key skills in the context of the curriculum themes being studied. During this monthly structured program, where students are encouraged to share items from home that align with the month’s curriculum theme, the children are encouraged to use descriptive words and complete sentences. Questions like, “Why is this object special to you?” “How does this work?” or “Where did you get this object?” help the children to strengthen their language and communication skills.

GENERAL CLASSES

Peer learning is an important aspect in the development of a child. Children learn a great deal by explaining their ideas to others and by participating in activities in which they can learn from their peers. They develop skills in organizing and planning learning activities. In San Academy , the general classes are conducted at the end of every month. This class helps the little ones to perform in a team there by developing their communication and socializing skills. Children also learn to share and wait for their turn. The activities planned for general classes also helps the teacher to reinforce the concepts and theme taught in the month.
