Educational Stream Offered – Our Curriculum

KINDERGARTEN (PKG - UKG)

At Vikaasa a child spends three years in Kindergarten before moving to Primary school.  We believe in learner  centered education.  A teacher at Vikaasa facilitates the learning process through experiential learning.

The early years at Vikaasa are spent in learning social skills, exercises of practical living, manipulative corner, activities to enhance their fine and gross motor skills, circle time and topic work.  They also learn the English language through phonics and gradually move on to reading independently through sight reading.  Montessori equipments wherever necessary are used to enhance their logical thinking and sensory learning. Children are also introduced to nature studies.  Besides Vikaasa always focuses and pays attention to the spoken language.

Children in upper kindergarten learn to frame simple sentences with picture associated words.  Focus is also on quantitative mathematical skills and using counters they learn basic arithmetic operations.
