ABOUT MARCIA JANZEN
Marcia is a highly experienced early years educator and has been teaching at CIS for the last nine years.
ABOUT CIS’ INQUIRY AND PLAY-BASED TEACHING APPROACH
CIS places a strong emphasis on nurturing their youngest learners’ natural sense of curiosity through an engaging, hands-on, inquiry and play-based teaching approach. This approach is based on substantial research that shows young children who engage in play develop greater language skills, social skills, more empathy, imagination, and a better capacity to understand others.
CIS’s play-based approach is not a chaotic way of teaching, rather it provides the optimal balance between a classroom rich in child-initiated play and focused learning activities guided by our teachers. For example in numeracy, their students explore concepts through hands-on activities such as cooking for learning about measurement and coloured blocks for sorting and classifying. In literacy, students build their language skills through different oral and written activities including drawing, art, and music.
