Nursery 2 Programme
Age 4 yrs
At Nursery 2, children have an increased sense of self confidence, they develop social skills and interact more during play time. They begin to understand more content, skills and concepts. Reading, phonics and numeracy skills are introduced to promote the child’s emergent capacity for language learning and acquisition.
The child’s physical development progresses further and thus the child is able to exercise better self-control and engage in greater challenges in both indoor and outdoor activities in school. We will continue to assist and challenge your child towards achieving these focused areas of competencies:
Language and Communication Competency Skills
(Phonological Awareness Program)
At this stage, your child will start to recite rhymes and finger plays, responds to questions appropriately and learn to express simple ideas and feelings in short and simple sentences. Your child will show interest in writing for specific purposes and start to make representational drawings.
Cognitive and Brain development
Your child is able to associate concrete objects to abstract materials, begin to sequence different events and daily routines. There is a sense of awareness displayed for daily roles of people around them and start to take perspective in familiar roles in pretend play.
Self and Social Development abilities
Your child would start to exercise greater self-control and demonstrates emotional regulation in school with peers. Learning to handle his or her feelings, taking turns, and resolving conflicts are some of the essential lifelong learning skills your child will learn in school.
Sensory and Psycho-motor Development
Gross and fine motor skills with the use of senses are demonstrated with higher competency. Your child will be able to incorporate their senses in visual, sound, taste and smell with different abilities and discriminating skills.
21st Century Life Long Learning Development and Education
