Primary School Language Arts

Language Arts at ISK is an exciting, interactive and integrated learning journey. It combines knowledge, skills and understanding developed through practical application as well as written and theoretical techniques. Children learn progressively, from Reception through to Year 6, starting with what they know and building upon these skills daily through all areas of the curriculum. It is important at ISK, to ensure learning is differentiated to meet the needs of every child.

At ISK, we want our children to develop a love of reading and writing and so all teachers ensure lessons are creative, child-centred and thought-provoking.  Children have opportunities to share what they have learned with each other as well as present ideas for what and how, they want to learn.

​Speaking and Listening, including drama and role-play are a key area within the Language Arts program. Through this, children can develop their communication skills and have opportunities to use their home language with their peers. Home Learning is provided regularly so children can practice new skills and share their learning with their families.
