Introduction

Colegio Cervantes is interested in initiating the schooling period of the individual since the elementary stage as, for our educational proposal, it is important to transmit to the kids positive habits from the first years of school.  Also, the acquisition of skills is fundamental for the school years to come.

Methodology

The academic training in Cervantes is holistic.  We intend to educate upstanding, integrated and integrator human beings.  During the first years, they learn through ludic experiences.  The students in Cervantes get a global vision and prepare themselves for the XXI century’s challenges.

Structure

Schooling is in English. The proposal consists on leading the children towards thinking in another language, avoiding translation, to obtain a better performance in the acquisition of a new language.

The corners serve for children to learn playing, emphasizing on the development of gross and fine motor skills.

The emotional education takes place through music.  Therefore,   we work on emotions 2 hours daily combining them with music.

Water stimulation takes place once a week.  It has several benefits, especially over the psychomotor development. It strengthens the cardiorespiratory and immunologic systems; increases the intellectual quotient and strengthens affective relationships with peers.
