Teaching and Learning Strategies

Teaching and learning at Odyssey is a highly collaborative and process-driven experience which engages the children in exploring, investigating, research and inquiry, critical thinking and problem solving. Careful consideration have been given to researching the best pedagogical principles and practices that should be included to determine the context for teaching and learning.

The unique Odyssey curriculum consists of these key learning experiences:

• Multiple intelligences as the context for transdisciplinary experiences
• Inquiry-based learning strategies through projects
• Chinese Language Immersion Programme
• Creative and aesthetic experiences in music, art, cookery and science
• Nature and outdoor learning experiences, learning beyond the classroom
• Technology-based learning strategies and application

Individualised Curriculum

Odyssey's approach to innovative early learning emphasises on the personalised experiences of the learner. The Odyssey curriculum incorporates some of the best individualised and differentiated learning experiences for children. The primary focus is on supporting the development of each individual child, especially those with special needs or those who are gifted or identified as gifted. Individualising the curriculum involves differentiating and modifying the curriculum design.
