Academic Program
Reading
MMLH Reading Success program combines the Jolly Phonics curriculum and the Science of Reading research. We aim to provide a systematic reading foundation for children so that they can read fluently with understanding and be ready for primary school reading requirements.
Our teaching method has a multisensorial approach; it means that we introduce new letter sounds through songs, stories, and movements. Our curriculum starts with phonological awareness and systematic phonics instruction. Then we practice reading fluency and finally introduce comprehension strategies.
In our classes, we use a variety of materials. We have workbooks for every stage, worksheets for additional practice, arts & crafts and game based online learning
Pre-Primary Math
MMLH Pre-Primary Math program aims to provide a space for children to explore numeracy and plant an understanding of mathematical concepts. Our program will lay a strong foundation for primary school math.
Our comprehensive method when teaching foundational math is the Concrete, Pictorial, and Abstract (C-P-A) method. The program starts with exploration with solid objects so that the children can understand the concept in real form. After that we move on to the picture representation of those concepts. Lastly, we will go to the abstract stage and learn the mathematical representation of those concepts.
In our Pre-Primary Math program, we aim to build the learner’s number sense, flexibility, logic, and conceptual understanding. Additional skills that we teach are mental strategies, making tens, number families, and counting on.
