HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK

THINKING & REASONING WITH MEASUREMENT

Explore, discover & solve problems through fun & interactive lessons!

Our students develop thinking & reasoning skills in 6 different learning areas, using a unique balance of hands-on experiential learning, challenging puzzles and table work to build focus and attention span.

What types of activities do our students work on and how do they benefit from these activities? How does KUNO method support students as they progress from 3 to 6 years old?

Here are the highlights of our latest lesson.


Her

NURSERY 1 (born in 2016)

A key cognitive ability to develop at this stage is the intellectual ability to perceive relationships between things. 

In this lesson, we use countable solid items to grasp the different ways of comparison. Through this, they will be able to perceive and describe the relationship between 3 or more objects with different quantity along with their ordinal positions (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th). 

Besides this, they also work on arranging the items in ascending and descending order, using precise words (2nd most/least) to describe the positions of items.
​
This build-up of activities promotes logical thinking skills, comparison, inference, estimation and communication skills, which are the fundamentals of mathematics and science inquiry.

NURSERY 2 (born in 2015)

It is important for your child to understand that objects can be measured in different ways, depending on the attribute of interest. 

Conservation is a logical thinking ability that helps your child understand that a given quantity will remain the same despite changing its shape, size and the container it is in. 

In this lesson, our N2 students turn into little scientists, carrying out conservation experiments. To understand quantity remains unchanged when it goes through a physical change, we place emphasis on the single attribute of quantity.

For instance, we start off with two cups of water of the same volume and pour them into two different shaped glass. They will need to determine which glass contains more water now or if the amount of water remains the same.
​
This extension activity encourages application of the conservation concept to problem-solve using the technique learnt from previous experiment.

KINDERGARTEN 1 (born in 2014)

Measuring can be described as ordering our surrounding world through numbers, in order to better understand our world. 
​
In this lesson, we take on a quantitative approach (what are conventional weight measures, how does a kitchen scale work, how do you use a letter scale?). They will first arrange objects by weight without the use of measuring scale. This allows children to focus on their sense of touch and engage in the process of elimination. After which, they will move on to to determine the relationship of 3 objects based on different scenarios using the elimination method.

Eventually, children will learn to enhance their observation and inference skills. They will also gain insights of these activities on a more general level, developing a proper concept of measurement.

KINDERGARTEN 2 (born in 2013)

Both logical and strategic thinking are essential components of problem-solving.  

In this lesson, we focus on developing your child’s ability to solve new problems by thinking strategically. We use novel games with rules that your child may not be familiar with, which builds the ability to grasp a set of rules quickly. 
​
With these activities, your child will be able to develop the following skills;
  • Perspective-taking – Taking the perspective of the opponent so as to anticipate possible changes in game play
  • Mental flexibility - Changing things to see what happens when different courses of action are taken
  • Perseverance - Keep going and perform iterative steps to identify the best course of action
