Pariposa Preschool offers the following enrichment programs as part of our core curriculum. The programs are conducted by our partners and trained professionals in house at no additional costs to parents.
Jolly Music is based on the tried and tested principles of Hungarian composer and music educator Zoltán Kodály. Jolly Music is a structured and progressive programme for teaching music skills to children. It is a multi-sensory programme, with all the teaching done through singing. This approach enables children to become instant music makers without the need to learn how to play an instrument. This program is conducted by our Jolly Music trained professionals for all levels.
Jolly Phonics is a fun and child centred approach to teaching literacy through synthetic phonics. With actions for each of the 42 letter sounds, the multi-sensory method is very motivating for children and teachers, who can see their students achieve. The letter sounds are split into seven groups as shown below.
This program is conducted by our Jolly Phonics trained professionals for Nursery to Kindergarten.
Letterland is a unique, phonics-based approach to teaching reading, writing and spelling. The Letterland characters transform plain black letter shapes into child-friendly pictograms and they all live in an imaginary place called Letterland. Simple stories about the Letterland characters, explain the full range of dry phonics facts so that children are motivated to listen, to think and to learn. These stories explain letter sounds & shapes, allowing children to progress quickly to word building, reading and writing. This program is for Playgroups and Pre Nursery levels.
Growing with Mathematics (GWM) is an activity-based, integrated, and problem-solving approach to learning mathematics for students from Nursery level onwards. The program incorporates concept, computation & skill development as a major component thus maintaining a balance between concepts and skills.
