Cumbres International School Lomas
In elementary school, our students work on understanding their emotions and those of others, developing strategies to manage, express and detect them in themselves and in others, in order to ensure their personal well-being and that of others. We have more than 10 extra-curricular sports and cultural activities, to extend the schedule from Monday to Thursday until 4:30 p.m.
Active methodologies are used that encourage student participation, challenging them with challenges related to their context or interests and that allow them to develop their cognitive and mental abilities, maintaining their motivation and developing their curiosity and passion for learning through collaboration.
With our NET virtues program, strategies and tools are developed that facilitate socio-emotional education and human formation in students. Positive environments are promoted that, through these strategies, arouse the dynamism of virtues.
The good is shown with concrete examples so that the student recognizes the benefits and is freely motivated to carry them out. A firm discipline is promoted, and kind at the same time, taking into account the need for identity and belonging.
We seek that students use technology effectively and efficiently as a tool to increase their productivity, develop their creativity, communicate ideas and learn collaboratively, without forgetting the responsibility that their use entails. Use of Ipads from 5th grade.
Through the use of educational technology, robotics and the STEAM methodology (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Math), we encourage students to see it:
As a useful and necessary resource for learning.
As a means to develop digital skills.
To lay the technological foundations for the following educational levels.
En primaria, los alumnos amplían su vocabulario y aprenden el uso correcto del inglés, a un nivel alto, más allá de lo funcional. Esto se logra recibiendo el 50% de sus clases en inglés, las cuales incluyen las materias de Speeling, Vocabulary, Grammar, Writing & Science. Certificaciones Cambridge.
Educamos en todo momento, espacio y ambiente. Cualquier oportunidad, dentro y fuera del salón de clases, se aprovecha para desarrollar una intervención educativa-formativa. Contamos con diversos recursos que nos apoyan en este proceso:
Ambientes y espacios formativos, flexibles, interactivos y colaborativos, que propician el aprendizaje personal, trascendente y comunitario.
Materiales educativos físicos y digitales, que ayudan a potenciar las capacidades del alumno según el perfil de egreso esperado.
Tecnología educativa, la cual se desarrolla en el laboratorio STEAM y laboratorios de tecnología y robótica, en donde se favorece la investigación y la producción de contenidos y soluciones.
In physical education classes and more than 10 extracurricular sports and cultural activities, our students develop the virtue of discipline, experience the importance of teamwork, as well as recognition of equity and interculturality.
Art and creativity are present in all the interdisciplinary projects that our students carry out as part of our methodology.
