The Les Kidz curriculum is organized around the Primary Skills (les Apprentissages Premiers). Each skill is essential to the child’s development and offers a core knowledge, which takes its roots from day-to-day experience, hands-on exploration, and authentic interaction.
Language Arts
Children learn to express themselves in groups, verbalize their feelings, ask questions, and use progressively more complex sentences. They will also learn about books, build their vocabulary, learn about various alphabets, and take their first steps toward writing. While teaching is conducted exclusively in French to fully immerse the children in the language, they are also introduced to other languages and cultures in order to enhance their inter-cultural awareness.
Socialization and Interpersonal Skills
Children learn to work in a group setting and develop social skills, including respect, patience, and independence. Emphasis will be placed on family structures and traditions. Throughout the year, children will be encouraged to respect themselves and their community.
Motor Skills
Children enjoy daily physical activities—free play or with specific instruction—that improve balance and spatial awareness. Music and dance activities help children develop physical awareness and expression. First steps to handwriting are taught through drawing, painting, and art projects.
