Course Description
ELA Grade 1 marks a vital beginning in helping children master language — not just for communication, but also for thinking, creating, and exploring the world. Students develop a natural love for English, gradually learning to express themselves clearly, understand stories around them, and voice their ideas with confidence.
Through engaging, connected lessons, students learn to listen, respond, comprehend, and write about their thoughts — using the global language of knowledge. This course lays the foundation for open-minded thinking, empathy, and limitless learning.
This isn’t just about “knowing English.” It’s the start of becoming a global learner — beginning today.
🔹 Learning Content
- Academic Vocabulary: 175+ vocabulary words across familiar life themes, taught with real-world photos, songs, and story-based language use.
- Phonics: Systematic introduction to English letters and sounds — one new sound/letter per lesson to build strong reading and writing foundations.
- Reading Skills: Blending, decoding, and reading common words and phrases in context; exposure to high-frequency words and comprehension strategies.
- Writing Skills: Step-by-step guidance to write sentences and short paragraphs; introduction to narrative, descriptive, and informational writing. Learners use images and vocabulary to support their writing.
- Listening & Speaking: Practice through songs, stories, and dialogues; students use sentence frames and new words to record and improve their spoken English.
- Interdisciplinary Integration: Vocabulary and content linked to Math, Science, and Social Studies; students apply English in both academic texts and hands-on projects (e.g., planting, poetry, material comparison).
Learning Methodology
The ELA program uses vivid visuals, engaging audio, and movement-based learning tailored to young learners. Lessons include real-life projects (poetry writing, gardening, crafts) to turn knowledge into meaningful experiences. Skills are reinforced through repetition and multiple learning formats. Regular feedback, voice recording, and peer observation build confidence in communication. In parallel, students also develop social-emotional skills such as collaboration, sharing, and expressing opinions — creating a holistic learning environment.
