The Preschool stage is composed of children aged 2 to 5 years old. Our facilities are safe, clean, attractive, and spacious. We count classrooms with air conditioning, courtyard, playground, lunch area, and swimming pool.
Our English program begins at the Pre-K level, children around 3 years
old. We use the play and learn methodology, which allows quick language learning. This methodology is based on games, songs, stories, phrases, and messages related to our students’ daily basis as well as situations in which they can be involved. We also offer our students specific physical activities that help develop their psycho-motor development during the preschool years. These skills are fundamental as fine and gross motor skills help organize children’s minds and contribute to literacy and cognitive organization required for overall learning.
Our Program:
Language/Literacy
Children learn to communicate naturally, so we provide them with
relevant situations, tasks, and activities to increase their vocabulary
and language development. To achieve our goal, we use different
educational resources, such as textbooks, flashcards, group activities,
games, songs, puppets, exercises, videos, dramas, stories, and a variety
of fine motor and handwriting activities.
Mathematics
The learning of mathematics comes with an understanding of numeracy, followed by the need and ability to solve problems. The children are exposed to practical experiences and concrete educational materials, also known as manipulatives, that support cognitive development. This knowledge includes numerical recognition, discrimination, classification, shape, space and measures, age-appropriate algebraic concepts of patterns and symbolic relationships, etc.
Personal, Social and Emotional Development
The success of our children will depend on having their own positive conception of themselves and the world around them, so it is important to develop a strong self, esteem, and the belief that they can determine their own success. We know that each child is unique and that their needs are different; by promoting their individuality, values, and good habits, we establish the basis for a healthy coexistence in a diverse, increasingly globalized world.
P.E for Preschooler
P.E. program provides a range of specifically-designed agility, balance, and coordination activities that help develop basic physical motor and social skills in a fun learning environment.
Swimming Class
Children older than 3 years old take swimming classes once a week. This is an optional service offered by the school within the curriculum.
Knowledge of the world
This area integrates the fundamental aspects of understanding the world and their role as future citizens in it. We promote science, technology, history, geography, and the national environment from both a local and global, or international world view.
Creative development
A creative child is more successful in learning. We encourage our students’ creativity through various activities, including art, music, drama, and imaginative play.
Music
Our proposal offered an early learning program worldwide leader in
developing listening, cognitive, and motor skills through music and
movement.
Birthday Celebration
Birthdays celebrated at CIS for preschoolers; we dedicate the last
Friday of each month to celebrate children’s birthdays desiring to
