Nevertheless, reading these books may seem a tad intimidating and challenging especially at that tender age.
Bearing this in mind, Classcapades offers a structured reading development programme to make your child a confident, self-assured and independent
reader. To overcome the hurdle of the phonemic non-adherence of the English language, our reading programmes combine phonic and sight reading strategies to
create a reading curriculum that is coherently structured and at the same time attention-grabbing and thought-provoking for our young readers.
Alongside reading, the programmes focus on poetry and elocution, fluency, pronunciation and conversation enhancement.
The programme is conducted in two levels:
Young Readers Programme (YRP) - Sr. KG
Budding Readers Programme (BRP) - Grades 1 and 2
Course Objectives:
✦Conversing in an articulate, confident and grammatically correct manner
✦Honing elocution and poetry recitation

However, the learning of Grammar often takes a backseat, as it is dismissed as something too simple and not deserving of dedicated study.Students and grown-ups too, often gauge the grammatical correctness of a sentence based on auditory familiarity (whether it sounds conventionally correct). This strategy works quite often but it is in no way a reliable tool for ensuring grammatical accuracy.
Grammatical correctness can only be sought through a structured study of relevant concepts, understanding technical terms and analysis of semantic interrelations.
The Pro Grammar course at Classcapades is an exclusively custom-made programme to help your child master concepts in Grammar. A systematic method and approach that emphasises on learning through understanding the function of Grammar concepts rather than by rote. Pro Grammar intends to show children the inherent structure and discipline contained in the English language while it imbibes in children a liking for the study of Grammar.
Course Objectives:
✦ Realizing that the study of grammar can be fun
✦ Grasping and understanding Grammar concepts
✦ Familiarizing students to the rules as well as the exceptions
✦ Creating and using strategies (mnemonics) to memorise lists
✦ Practising Grammar exercises from an academic point of view
✦ Mastering the subject through Module based learning and assessments
✦ Encouraging life-long learning through grammar games and discussions
✦ Establishing credibility amongst peers as a Pro when it comes to Grammar
"Only in Grammar can you be more than perfect."
- William Safire, American author, columnist, journalist, and presidential speechwriter
