APPLICATION

Coding

  • applies math and science to the creation of something

useful.

  • empowers students to move from passive recipients and

consumers of learning to true producers of content.

  • puts students in control of their devices.
  • a great way to get our students engaged and

excited about learning logic and math skills. It is really

about the process of breaking down and solving problems using logic, sequence, and precision. A program will do exactly what it is written to do.

  • When students learn to code, they see their ideas appear on

the screen, and in addition they can share them with the world.

PRIMARY 3 Q & A

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Q. P3 are separated to 2 groups. Does it mean that there are

still so called best class and normal class? How do you determine this? Why do they need to buy the different books like science? A: Students are banded into 2 groups based on data and

  • bservations of their learning dispositions, learning outcomes,

and factors such as the gender, race, nationality & learning and behavioural needs. The 3 classes in each of the 2 groups are of similar profile, with one group requiring more support and scaffolding in learning. Thus, the science resources which supplement the learning from the Science textbook and activity books, are different, with one that provides more

  • scaffolding. The teachers will differentiate the learning for the

students based on their learning ability and needs and use the resources from the two books for the students, where relevant.

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • n students’ needs and available resources.

Q: Can our child change the CCA after joining? A: Students are strongly encouraged to remain in the CCA to develop their interest and build up their talent. They will also be able to develop greater sense of belonging and friendship in the CCA group that they are in. Q: Why do some class have 3 form Teachers whereas some have 2? A: Currently, we have enough resources to support all classes with 2 Form Teachers, with a few classes, 1 additional form teachers.
