At NCS the Pre-school experience continues in the primary programme, where the Nursery materials are a means to an end. These scientifically designed materials are intended to stimulate the imagination, to aid abstraction and to present a universal view of the human work and purpose. The pupil is led to ask philosophical questions about the origins of the universe, the nature of life, different cultures, and the fundamental needs of humankind.
There is an emphasis on creative and expository writing, interpretive reading of literature and poetry. Research using a variety of resources is basic, as is the study of grammar, sentence analysis, spelling and oral expression, including dramatic and operatic productions. A foreign language is developed alongside the native language. Making use of community resources through the experience of outings as a means of allowing pupils to take the initiative to explore beyond the classroom walls and to follow their own interests to a satisfying conclusion.
Various activities are introduce to the pupils, which we called "Practical Life", prepare children to care for themselves and the environment and give each child a sense of mastery and self-confidence. Performing such tasks as sweeping, polishing, washing, and preparing food, children develop coordination, concentration, and good work habits such as completing a task.
Mathematics
Pupil's understanding of the basic mathematic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division emerges from using manipulative materials such as rods, beads, sandpaper numerals, cards and counters which allow the child to visualise the abstraction of numbers. Using self-correcting materials, children learn not only number recognition and place value, but also to solve problems and to develop a visual image of mathematical concepts.
Reading and Writing
The pupils are immersed in developing language, and effortlessly links sound, symbols and shapes. Using simple alphabet cut outs and sandpaper letters, children learn the sounds of letters and soon are linking letters to make words, then words to make sentences. Children first develop small muscle coordination necessary to master writing in their activities of daily living and in using the sensorial materials. After tracing geometric figures with a pencil, cutting shapes with scissors, and tracing letters with their fingers, they soon progress to writing letters.
