Active learning:
PEB (Pre-Elementary Bilingual School) methodology is based on active learning. Children learn through observation, personal experience and exploration. Play is essential. Children learn ideas through play and while they are having fun they progressively acquire knowledge of the physical and social world. Safe environments, appropriate materials, equipment and role models, planned and appropriate outdoor environments, carefully planned curriculum make children enjoy learning.
Organizing the classroom:
The classroom is a busy place where children observe and explore different areas set up by the teachers. Children manipulate different objects in the prepared environment. When they arrive, children are grouped together, this is a group time. After, children can move into different areas of choice. They may be working on their own or with other children or in a small group with a teacher.
The classroom is divided into areas of focus:
- Group time,
- Art,
- Workshop,
- Sensorial,
- Language,
- Practical life,
- Culture & Science
- Math
Materials and skills corresponding to each area of focus are introduced and practiced in the same classroom. Children are aged from 2 and a half or 3 to 5 or 6 year old. There is a teacher and an assistant in the classroom.
