  HIGHLY EFFECTIVE TEACHING

Photo of student readingIn creating curriculum, we consider the five learning principles as outlined in the HET model:

  • INTELLIGENCE is a function of experience
    • Provide many real-life hands-on experiences
    • Field studies

  • Learning is an inseparable partnership between BRAIN and BODY.
    • Emotion is the gatekeeper to learning and performance
    • Movement enhances learning

  • There are MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES (www.howardgardner.com) or ways for solving problems and producing products
    • Logical – mathematical
    • Linguistic
    • Spatial
    • Bodily – kinesthetic
    • Musical
    • Intrapersonal
    • Interpersonal
    • Naturalist

  • Learning is a TWO-STEP PROCESS:
    • The brain is a pattern seeking device
    • Using these patterns to promote long-term memory and mastery

  • PERSONALITY impacts learning and performance

Our curriculum is designed using the best practices in education in concert with brain compatible learning. This ensures that your child will get the most value out of his or her educational experience.
