Elementary Building on the language foundations, appreciation for learning, and discipline acquired in pre-kindergarten and kindergarten, academic skills are expanded in the elementary program, which includes Grades 1 through 5. The curriculum is challenging, with its emphasis on both oral and written communication in the two languages. Science and social studies share equal emphasis with language arts and mathematics in both English and Chinese. History and geography are added to include both the United States and China. Close cooperation and coordination between the English and the Chinese teachers allows the development of common themes for the study materials and the celebrations.
Teachers reinforce each other's activities.
The Chinese teacher takes the responsibility for the celebrations of Chinese festivals, while the English teacher leads in the non-Chinese.
