We create the right Environment where children are :
RELAXED: confident amongst peers
ALERT: switched on because they will be active
MOTIVATED: want to learn as they see relevance
POSITIVE: see themselves as successful learners
We Maximize Learning Activities By
- Using visual, audio and kinesthetic activities to ensure effective learning process
- Using high emotional content such as excitement and novelty to enhance attention, meaning and retention
- Using mind/body connections – the integration of mind and body e.g. clapping at full stops, making up names to go with scientific words to aid meaning
We connect The Learning
Teachers help the brain look for meaning where the lesson fits into the scheme of their learning, connects to previous learning and is relevant to the world around them
Show the children what they have learnt by demonstrating their understanding
Review and re-review
Help facilitate the children’s learning and its transfer to the long-term memory by constantly reviewing what they have learnt.
Feedback
Children need regular signposting to know how they are doing and where they are going
