Methodology & Learning Styles

Methodology

CIS strives for academic excellence to enable students for success in today’s competitive world and help them pursue higher learning in the choicest of institutions. To make this possible, efforts are put in by highly qualified staff members by means of a dedicated teaching methodology. At this level, we constantly evaluate and modify the teaching strategy to formulate the best education to foster intellectual, emotional, physical, social, and aesthetic development of the students. The curriculum aims to integrate academics with co-curricular activities and sports and to imbibe good values in students at this early point of their life.

The concept of co-teaching is followed for pre-school, which involves two teachers, one delivering instruction and explaining and the other demonstrating and facilitating active participation. This ensures that each child is given personal attention in the early formative years. Through classes I to V, the methodology shifts to class-centric, with the aim of building scientific temperament through exploration, experimentation and reasoning.

Learning Styles

Children are guided in finding their identity and developing a sense of security.

The language curriculum is quite different from a traditional preschool curriculum. Here the child learns the sounds letters in a systematic, progressive way and then blend the letters to form a word. Every word is identifiable with an object so the child can feel, understand and match the abstract word to a concrete.

Field trips are essential to a young child’s educational experience. When children actively observe, learn and participate in educational activities during field trips, they strengthen the absorption of the information, understanding of concepts learned, cognitive abilities and critical thinking skills.
