Enhanced English Programme for Primary Sector
The SFMS Primary Section has enhanced its English programme with the implementation of the below new initiatives.
Subscription to The Little Red Dot (TLRD)
Catering to younger readers, this is a publication from The Straits Times. Utilising TLRD as a study tool, our English Language teachers have been
engaging students in interactive and informative discussions as well as group presentations. As a result, our Primary Section students were able to
become more informed about current affairs and at the same time, to broaden their general knowledge, perspectives and critical thinking skills.
Introduction of a Literature component to the
English curriculum
Each student has had the opportunity to read an award-winning story book from the “I Love Literature” series and to learn more about the story through an accompanying activity book.
Addition of over 300 interesting new titles to the School’s Learning Resource Centre!
These books have been carefully calibrated to students of differing language abilities. Carefully arranged and categorised by increasing levels of difficulty, students are appropriately directed to the range of books suitable to their reading levels so as to systematically lead them to improve their reading and comprehension skillsets via natural progression.
Inclusion of a library rack in every classroom
Motivated by the vibrant display and accessibility of the books, our students are now enjoying their reading more than ever!
