Our systematic reading program gets children reading independently 2 grade levels ahead, with most kindergarteners reading at Grade 2 comprehension level by Senior KG.
Smart Phonics Approach : Strategic Letter Sequence, all in lowercase
- Nursery: Strategic a-c-t, b-m-r sequence enables immediate word formation after just 6 letters.
- Children start reading small CVC words even before completing the entire alphabet series, unlike conventional alphabetical order that delays word formation.
- Junior KG: CVC words across all vowel families (~200 words) + sight words + story reading.
- Senior KG: Beginning/ending blends, advanced sight words, independent chapter books.
Two-Teacher Excellence: Dual Instruction Model
- Subject Teacher: Instructs whole class on phonics concepts.
- Class Teacher: Conducts one-on-one reading sessions with every child.
- Individual attention ensures no child is left behind.
