FAQ
1.Pre-Schoolers Phonics
Phonics is
one method of teaching children how to read and write.
It’s all about sounds. There are 44
sounds in the English language, which we put together to form words.
Some are represented by one letter, like
‘t’, and some by two or more, like ‘ck’ in duck and ‘air’ in chair.
Children are taught the sounds first,
then how to match them to letters, and finally how to use the letter sounds for
reading and spelling.
Synthetic phonics refers to ‘synthesizing’,
or blending, the sounds to read words. It’s based on the idea that children
should sound out unknown words and not rely on their context.
Beginner
LearningMAX 's phonics curriculum is
based on the Letterland Phonics Program. Letterland Phonics is a unique,
phonics-based approach to teaching reading, writing and spelling to children
ages 3 to 8.
The Letterland characters transform plain
black letter shapes into child-friendly pictograms and they all live in an
imaginary place called Letterland.

2.Primary 1 Preparation Course
The classes are designed to help
preschool children transit to primary school life, build up their basic skills
such as spelling and reading, and clarify their doubts on the concepts covered
in Primary 1.
Studies have shown that the transition
from an informal learning environment in kindergarten to a more structured
classroom teaching in Primary 1 may come as a culture shock for most children.
As such, the better-prepared children on what to expect, the better they will
be able to cope.
We rely on learning tools such as flash
cards and incorporates music and videos into its preparatory classes. We also
teach concepts using everyday objects, which are easier for the children to
relate to. For instance, our teachers may use an ice cream cone to help the
children learn and identify shapes from different perspectives.

ideal platform for a student to hone his expertise in the English language and

4.Primary Mathematics programme
Our Primary Mathematics programme follows
two key features. We use visuals to represent mathematical quantities and their
relationships instead of words so students can grasp the structure of a word
problem and the abstract concepts in a concrete way. We highlight the
application of mathematical concepts and skills to develop processing skills
such as reasoning and communicating, raising meta-cognition in problem solving,
and nurturing a positive attitude towards learning mathematics.
People learn Mathematics faster and
easier when they physically touch real objects, then see pictures before going
through symbols. This brings fun and instill a sustained passion and
appreciation for Mathematics in our students. We believe that all children are
capable of anything, depending on how it is presented to them and the effort which
they put into learning it.
Our programme aims to move away from
simple memorizing of formulae and solutions and to focus instead on teaching
students how to problem solve so they can be efficient problem solvers of
mathematical problems to ace their examinations in school and PSLE as well as
to tackle their everyday life effectively.
We give confidence to our students by
ensuring that our students have a strong grasp of the core concepts. Our
students are trained to apply the basic concepts through the usage of critical
thinking skills, in-depth analysis and logical reasoning skills. We challenge
our students to excel in the subject through numerous heuristic approaches.
High achievers and GEP students will be exposed to more advanced and
higher-order mathematical scenarios which will challenge and stretch their
problem-solving abilities to the limit.
