The children of this age group are coming away from the safety and warmth of thier home. So the first task for facillitators is to help children make a smooth transition from home to school. Once children become comfortable in their new environment, they can begin to master the basics of reading, writing and arithemic. Simultaneously, they develop social skills required to adjust with peers, and develop a sound value system. To this end, an enriched curriculum provides for a variety of experience through story telling, roleplay, counting games, group activities, art, music, field excursions, puppet shows and sports. A thematic approach is followed where several activities are integrated around a central theme to make teaching more meaningful and relevant.
