ELOP – English Language Oracy Programme
Oracy is seen as one of the essential pillars of children’s early development today. Through ‘talking to learn’ in the social context of the classroom, children are active participants in developing understanding and making knowledge and skills their own.
Oracy is broadly concerned with the complex ways in which language skills, interpersonal skills and thinking skills work together and affect each other in the social context of school. It emphasizes the vital role of listening and talking in children’s learning. The ability to listen actively, speak clearly, communicate fluently, and engage in a meaningful two-way interaction with others is seen as a vital, integral part of the process of children’s learning and academic development in English Language.
This programme is a 5-year English Language Oracy Programme (ELOP) which provides a platform for students to
Character Alive programme
In CPS, we celebrate reading in a big way. We strive to make reading fun for the students by having Characters come Alive during our annual English Language Week. It is a fringe activity to arouse their curiosity in interesting characters found in stories. We actively encourage all students to discover the fun in exploring the different genres of literature. Students are given an opportunity to dress up as a character in their favourite story book and have a fun-filled day.
Ink–it Programme
Scheduled timeslots are allocated to each class to visit the School Mutli- Resource Library where students will be treated to a story reading session by the teachers and be engaged in reading related activities.
Collaboration with Parents
To ensure our students enjoy the learning of English and are confident communicators in the language, we need parents’ support.
Parents can help your child gain proficiency by providing English language reading materials at home. Show your child that learning English is both enjoyable and useful in daily life. Provide opportunities for your child to listen, speak, read and write the language.
