Our unique learning approach at Little GEMS International, learning through inquiry-based thinking, gives your child a head start in education. Our methodology develops the foundation for the three Rs as well as promoting the five Cs: Creativity, Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Care. It has been widely acknowledged that effective early childhood pedagogy for the 21st Century must support these principles. At Little GEMS, children engage in projects based on their existing knowledge, but we also provoke the children to think about and explore problems and challenges at a deeper level. Various studies have brought forward evidence that children learn more effectively when their thinking is being challenged through interactions that encourage the child to share their thoughts and ideas. Instead of the adult being the sole source of knowledge, at LGI children are encouraged to investigate problems within a learning community, engaging in meaningful interactions with adults, peers and also outside experts.
