Non-Academic Skills

School has started! And we must not forget that we have to stay fit and active to continue our learning better throughout the year.

To help the students implement their learning in an enthusiastic environment, where they learn non-academic necessary skills besides academic accomplishments, we have started a cooking club where students are taught how to cook healthy to eat healthy. Teacher Angela is coaching her team to be an expert debater. And Teacher Enoch is guiding students to be a better thinker through chess club. All students join different clubs every Monday, 6th period.

For my year 3 students, to track their reading improvements in terms of fluency, pronunciation and adoption of new vocabularies, I use a simple sheet to keep the record. This helps me to focus drive my instruction the following week according to the learners’ necessity.
