The Podar Prep Teacher
Our teachers have moved away from 'chalk talk' and other formal teaching methods. At Podar Prep, we understand that high impact evidence-based teaching strategies are the foundation of a child's progression in learning. Our teachers and support staff undergo rigorous quality training to support every child's needs.
Parent Participation
We believe parents are the required wheel in a child's journey to understand their world. When parents are actively involved in their child's education, it ensures that the child has all the support they need to develop to their full potential.
Where Less Is More Because Naming Is Not Knowing!
Children can name or recite many things; that is called rote learning. We stress on in-depth conceptual understanding that is project-based, learner-centric approaches that capture learners' interest and boost their ownership of the learning experience.
Interactive S.P.A!
We have a special room called an Interactive S.P.A that helps nurture well-being and mindfulness in children while giving them the necessary sensory stimulus for creating happy brains.
Foundational Literacy with Symphonics
Symphonics is a well-researched method that helps children learn about co-relating sounds of the letters using picture cards, stories, puppets, songs and more. Children read and understand simple sentences. They use phonic knowledge to decode regular words and read them aloud accurately.
Foundational Numeracy with Number Magic Program
This well-researched program encourages children to link numbers with their value, understand spaces and shapes, and understand the concepts of counting, addition and subtraction using number pattern tiles. When number learning happens in a playful and systematic manner, it helps children grasp and relate to future Mathematics learning.
Fun with Coding
We provide children with the foundation of technology literacy with Coding. We use the 'gifts' designed by the father of Kindergarten, Fredrich Froebel, to develop pre-coding skills like logical thinking, reasoning, problem-solving and looking for patterns, so that they become comfortable with technology from a young age.
Nature-Based Activities
These activities ensure that our children respect their environment and surroundings; it helps to calm children by providing them with a space to be where they belong. Nature provides countless opportunities for discovery, creativity, problem-solving and STEAM education.
Story and Spiral Curriculum
We were inspired by Gijubhai Badheka's pedagogy of teaching through stories, as stories develop Higher Order Thinking skills. A story-led curriculum begins with a story and then takes children to explore concepts like colours, shapes, animals, etc. The curriculum is a spiral curriculum inspired by Jerome Bruner's spiral approach. So instead of monthly themes we ensure that themes are continued throughout the year and children move from known to unknown, simple to complex and concrete to abstract.
