Our Teaching Method

Focused Instruction

Kipinä follows a balanced child-centered and teacher-directed framework. Using guided learning and skilful instruction similar to the core philosophy of the Finland program, Kipinä has added the teaching methodology of focused instruction, which accelerates the learning process so children learn at a faster pace. Research shows it brings more value to both the learning and teaching process.

Creative Exploration

Kipinä, through its unique learning environments and qualified practitioners, provides sample opportunities for creative exploration. Also known as play, exploration is a platform for children to interact, demonstrate, and develop their skills.

I Do - We Do - You Do Model

Kipinä practitioners are engaged and interactive with children, guiding them towards specific learning outcomes across all of the age groups following the I do - We do - You do model.

Understanding Children's Development Continuum

Kipinä is designed to support the holistic development of every child. To ensure that children progress along the developmental continuum, Kipinä offers its program through the lens of six core curricular domains. The development skills charts interwoven through the curricular domains are meant to be used as a tool to help Kipinä practitioners and families exchange information about child's growing skills.

While the developmental 'ages and stages' are provided under Kipinä curricular domains, the philosophy of Kipinä is such that all aspects of development are interconnected.

Separating out developmental maturity into any one curricular domain would suggest an artificial categorisation of what is truly meant to be an integrated approach to child development and learning that Kipinä seeks to support through its curricular focus.
