Seagal Education Consultants Pte Ltd is the publisher of the E.S.I KIDS curriculum. We intend to help schools answer the question “How emotionally intelligent are the students, the parents and teachers in the well-being and academic success of the children in school and at home?”.
In order to have academic success there must be an effective communication triangle or partnership among the school/teachers, parents and children. This is where the E.S.I KIDS education system plays an integral role. We are a part of the resource of the school which is an enabler, a helping hand and an agent of change in this communication triangle.
The ESI (Emotionally, Socially, Intelligent) KIDS curriculum is a range of Teacher Guide Books, Teacher Resource Books, Student Activity Books and additional Readers for children aged 5 to 8 years old. The focus is on specific social and emotional growth, cognitive and higher order thinking skills as well as literacy.
The ESI KIDS curriculum provides a learning environment that helps ensure the learner is able to positively express him/herself, has self-confidence, and can communicate effectively according to the situation, purpose and lesson context.
Particular emphasis is placed on providing a supportive environment through which each learner’s emotional, social and academic intelligence is developed. The curriculum is activity based and is designed to encourage learners to develop a range of emotional, social and communicative skills.
Active learning focuses the responsibility of learning on the learners. In order to learn, learners must do more than just listen, they must read, write, discuss and be engaged in problem solving. Active learning engages learners in two aspects - doing things and thinking about the things they are doing. The E.S.I KIDS education system is designed with a full range of active learning exercises such as games, role play, discussion, think-pair-share (identification and discussion of previous learning) and cooperative learning.
We use our Think, Feel, Learn methodology to help schools improve the well-being of their students holistically. The objective of our partnership with schools is to level up the other critical aspects in the development of their students’ i.e. cognitive and higher order thinking skills as well as literacy. This will help strengthen the learning process of STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) in school. At home, we assist parents to strengthen the bonds with their children.
The system of active learning that we have created will allow the school to have teachers, students and their parents who can “Think, Feel and Learn” in partnership to the students’ academic and well-being success.
