Curriculum
At Victory, students are given the ability to learn at their own pace when studying certain subjects like Math, English, Spelling/Etymology, and Literature – and this is perfect for them! Because some students learn faster than others, self-paced learning is just what the doctor ordered: kids who need to spend extra time working on a math lesson can get the help they need, while students who are learning really fast can keep moving ahead. This cuts down on student frustration – there are no penalties for working slowly, but no aggravation for those who don’t need to! Also, students receive lots of individual attention via this teaching method.
For our students in Daycare, Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten, in addition to this, we also use a Latin American literacy based program offered through the Santillana Curriculum.
Our Victory campus is currently divided into (3) different classrooms: Nursery & Daycare, Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten, and grades 1, 2 and 3. In each classroom, students daily receive individual attention from the same lead teacher assigned to that classroom.
While an emphasis is placed on English for most classes, Costa Rican Social Studies is taught in Spanish. Students work on different activities that are focused on developing their awareness of Costa Rican history. They learn about the beautiful people of this land, their social structure, and their vast history.
*A note about English courses: At Victory, English classes are designed so that students learn proper English concepts, practice conversation, and invest time listening to spoken English. To learn more about how Victory incorporates English into daily classes and routines click here.
**Social Studies Text books are MEP (Ministerio de Educación Pública) approved.
