Each unit poses a Big Question. Students develop the confidence to become critical thinkers in their second language as they investigate, analyse and reason while connecting with the topics on a deeper level in English.

Aside from oracy the course offers many other opportunities to develop communication skills: discussions around Big Questions to encourage critical thinking; activities to build fluency; and missions to practice functional language and high-frequency vocabulary.

A literacy-based approach means that students learn to read and write through exposure to a rich variety of texts, and then use those skills to learn about the world – from learning to read to reading to learn.

Using 7 creativity principles the course offers a topic-linked Creative Journal and Build Creativity activities in which students practice problem solving and self-expression through puzzles, games, and other imaginative activities which require children to demonstrate cognitive flexibility, analytical skills, imagination and curiosity.
