Mandarin Lighthaus is an effective, vibrant and fun Mandarin academy that offers both Mandarin Preschool and Mandarin Enrichment Programme.
Mandarin Lighthaus use Mandarin as a medium to instill the STEAM approach. Why?
We respects children as born explorers and self-learners.
Let them Explore, Investigate, we stimulate their Curiosity; Creativity; encourage knowledge of everyday Problem Solving and Critical Thinking.
Science – encourages investigation and answering questions, often involving experimentation.
Technology – refers to using simple tools like crayons and rules, as well as more complex ones like microscopes and computers.
Engineering – refers to recognizing problems and testing solutions.
Arts -encourages creativity and allow children to illustrate comcepts they are learning.
Mathematics – deals with numbers, but also patterns, shapes, measurements, organizational skills and much more.
STEAM learning happens naturally everyday in our Mandarin Lighthaus activity room as children explore, play, and try new things. When young children play, they have the opportunity to investigate the world around them, experiment with new skills and learn new theories.For example when a child is playing with cars, he may come to realize that placing a car on flat surface, it would not move.However, placing a car on a tilted surface, it will slide down.The child then builds his own theory based on play.
We provide purposeful play through a structured daily STEAM timetable by giving the children opportunities to explore, investigate, pursue their curiosities, problem solving, critical thinking and draw conclusions about: how things work, how to build or develop and how to improve their creation.
