Project-based activities centre around children’s interests and their everyday experiences, providing them a learning experience that is highly relevant. This helps nurture students’ exploratory and problem-solving capacity.
There are three phases for project-based activities. First, children’s learning interest is aroused through storytelling and games. Initial discussion is held to determine the direction of exploration.
The second phase provides the platform for students to research, share and discuss with each other. New information is processed and becomes their learning focus, while knowledge is culminated in the process.
The third and final phase is for children to demonstrate what they have learnt through different genres, including drama, dance, book design and role play. Students’ learning outcomes will be consolidated.
Children learn to accept and share with each other through these activities. More importantly, they learn to show care and respect to the people and things around them. A balanced development will enhance children’s learning effectiveness as their grow morally, intellectually, physically, socially, aesthetically and spiritually.
