Children learn best when all their senses are involved in the learning activity. Play is exactly the activity in which the children get thoroughly engrossed and learn to their full potential.
Junior Delhi School employs its unique, extensively researched and meticulously planned Junior Integrated Learning (JIL) program. JIL utilises this wonderful and effective tool by carefully integrating play activities with learning resulting in better understanding on children's part.
JIL integrates multiple modes of learning so that the children learn in a way they find easy and convenient. Further, we strongly believe if a child is not moving he/she is not learning. That is why STEAM labs are an important part of our JIL program to offer activity-based out-of-the-classroom learning that inculcates 21st-century skills, the 4 Cs –
The curriculum should help cater to all the needs of the child. At the same time, it should also help the child to develop both inter and intrapersonal skills. The primary developmental areas that have been focused on in the curriculum crafted by Junior Delhi School are as follows:-
In a child's early years, language development is the most significant aspect. It also promotes a variety of other developmental domains. A kid's language development is important in the early stages of life since it will allow the child to have a stronger grasp of the language later in life. Language will assist the child with communicating, expressing emotions, and resolving difficulties. It will also help the child improve his or her reading abilities. The crucial period for a child's language development is between the ages of 0 and 8. As a result, it is given a great deal of weight in Junior Delhi School.
The ability to think, understand, communicate, remember, imagine etc is called cognitive development. The early learners assimilate things, topics etc through play due to which the primary focus is given to the play-way method. Developing cognition help in the improvement of focus, understanding the relations better and also comprehending whatever they see, smell, hear, touch etc. The curriculum of Junior Delhi School keeps the cognitive development of the early learners its centre of focus along with other developmental domains.
Motor development is the physical growth and the strengthening of the bones and muscles which will, in turn, lead to the movements of the child. As Junior Delhi School focuses on the overall development of the child the motor skills of the children are also given major importance with other developmental domains. Gross motor skills include the large muscles in the torso, arms and legs whereas, fine motor skills will include control with hand, fingers and thumb. The activities included in the curriculum is concentrated on both motor skills along with others.

The ability of a child to socially and emotionally adapt to the situations in and around them remains the focus through this development. Increasing self-awareness, having a close relationship with caregivers, recognizing, managing their emotions are all looked forward through this development. Group learning plays a significant role in the social-emotional development of early learners. While working in the group develops their team spirit, encourages sharing and caring, understanding of the emotions of their peer groups and promotes peer learning.
The preschool years is one of a child's most creative periods. Drama, music, dance, and arts and crafts can all aid in the development of your child's imagination at an early age. This will aid in the development of the child's creativity, confidence, ability to express feelings, and communication skills. Creativity also promotes brain development in early learners by allowing them to try out new ideas, as well as new methods of thinking and problem-solving.
A child-centred approach to teaching synthetic phonics to young children. Junior Delhi School uses this multi-sensory strategy to help children with pronunciation. Such modes of learning will aid the pupils in gaining a better understanding of the subjects.
The Drop Everything And Read method, which is employed in our preschool's everyday instruction, help young readers develop a passion for reading. In addition, concentration is improved. For these young readers, the habit of reading can provide an early edge.

It helps the learners to easily pick up on the topics related to mathematics as it prompts doing and playing with numbers. Learning gets real interesting with the help of this technique and at the same time can show significant growth in cognitive skills too.
Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math incorporate a wide range of disciplines to inspire students to investigate, question, research, discover and practise creative building skills. This education will assist the youngster in fully comprehending the topics.
Young learners' ideas can be valued, their creativity can be fostered, their interests can be nourished, and their learning requirements can be satisfied through project work. Research skills of these learners can also be taken care of along with this.
