English Language Subject

 

Topic-based learning is adopted for all year levels in our school. A topic-based learning curriculum was tailor-made for our students’ needs.  The curriculum is designed to be systematic and effective. A relevant writing task is designed for each topic as well.  Elements of process writing is also embedded in writing lessons.  In the implementation of the English language curriculum, the use of a wide range of language arts materials such as songs, rhymes, poems, stories, tongue twisters and plays is advocated (CDC:P168) to make the lessons interactive, effective and fun.

 

P1-P3 Characteristics of English Language Subject Primary Literacy Programme – Reading

We promote students’ generic skills: creativity, critical thinking skills, communication skills through the PLPR Programme.  The aim of this programme is to enhance the reading proficiency of students through a suitable and sustainable literacy programme with a focus on reading.  It also helps to develop positive learning habits at an early stage so as to establish basic literacy skills for future learning.  Students have three reading lessons every cycle with our Native-speaking English teacher and local English teachers in English Room.

 

P4-P6 EEGS Reading Programme

In order to have an effective bridge between KS1 and KS2, a school-based reading programme is held for KS2 (P4-P6).  We focus on teaching pupils reading strategies and vocabulary building skills so as to develop pupils self-learning skills.  Students have a reading lesson with our NET teacher every cycle.  Teachers provide graded readers and reading materials for students.  For adopting a wide range of teaching-learning strategies, our native-English teacher and school teachers co-plan and co-teach lessons for students to help them develop reading skills. RaC and classic readers are also taught in the lessons to broaden students’insights and get them to appreciate the literary value of classics.

 

P1-3 Home Reading Programme 

 

P1 to P3 students will be assessed on their reading ability every year. Books will be allocated to students according to their reading levels every cycle and they are encouraged to read them at home by themselves and with their parents to develop a good reading habit.

 

NET Scheme

To further strengthen our students’ English listening and speaking abilities, we have two full-time native speaking English teachers for all classes.  Students are encouraged to participate in public English examinations such as the TOEFL Junior.  Throughout the years, we have consistently gained excellent results.
