If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.
The child-centered approach is not a new kindergarten philosophy. The idea actually dates back to the 19th century where kindergarten was believed to be “a garden for children”, a place where children could grow at their own pace by exploring their unique interests.
Importance of Child-Centered Approach:-
We truly believe that the core of child-centered education is to help the child become independent, responsible, and confident. With the help of this approach, teachers cover all areas of growth including social, emotional, and physical. They want to help the child develop the knowledge and skills required in all content areas.
To emphasise the importance of group work, collaborated activities are planned on regular basis that help broaden the minds of little ones. When children play, they consistently learn. They discover how to plan, ask questions, and experiment.
What is our child-centered approach to learning?
Manav Rachna International School Ludhiana encourages children to take learning into their own hands, as opposed to being directed or prompted by a teacher. Children take responsibility for making choices about what they will learn and explore. This play-based method places the child first, an approach with the message that all children have the right to education that helps them grow to their fullest potential. It also focuses on the child’s well-being in all areas.
At MRIS Ludhiana, we have HAPPY blend of discipline and at the same time, a buzz that is electric, the buzz of human interaction. That is one of the most special qualities of our school. In our school, we make sure we give children authentic challenging experiences. Our goal as educators is to create a true safety net where children can strive and make mistakes, knowing that they are loved, they are safe and treasured.
