Prepare Your Child for Primary School with MindChamps

The MindChamps Reading enrichment programme is now offered at 2 convenient locations: Toa Payoh HDB Hub and most recently Paragon.

MindChamps Reading instills the love of reading in every child from young – an essential mindset for creating a ‘life-long reader’. MindChamps Reading does not only cover phonics – it is an important part of any balanced reading program – but it is only one part. It is necessary but not sufficient.  Reading is about connecting with meaning, and experiencing the emotion and the aesthetic beauty of well-expressed language. MindChamps Reading Programme gets your child excited about reading by engaging both their emotions and intellect.

The programme trains your child (3 to7 years old) to be active in thinking, understanding and interacting with the written world, which are the critical requirements for a child’s success in any subject in school. The programme develops:

1. Narrative Intelligence

2. Higher Order Thinking Skills

3. Connectivity

4. Attentiveness

5. Language in Comprehension

The programme uses proven teaching methodology to cater to children with different learning styles and benefit them in the following ways:

  • Child-centred, with meaningful hands-on experiences that actively and constructively involve the child.
  • Experiences cater to the needs of the children and integrated into various aspects of the curriculum, e.g., creative arts, role-play (drama) and vocabulary.
  • Quality Children Literature, with related songs and rhymes that are appropriate to the different levels and linked to the letter(s) introduced.
  • Expertly crafted theatrical principles are incorporated within the lesson scope to fully engage the children.
  • “Transitional” activities are in place to provide the children with an opportunity to review and recall the learning experiences throughout the day.
