English Language

 

The English Language Cluster West 6 schools work collaboratively towards focussing on the 21st century skills that our students will need in this globalised world. We continue to keep the culture of care and support where teachers come together to share good teaching practices and resources.

 

We also work closely with Master Teachers from the English Language Institute of Singapore (ELIS) to guide us on our school programmes. In 2015, we look forward to another fruitful year of engaged professional development for our cluster English Language teachers.

CLUSTER SHARING SESSION 2015

CLUSTER SHARING SESSION 2015 - 30 April 2015

 

Our Sharing Session this year had 3 concurrent sessions where teachers from the different schools shared pedagogies that worked for them. The themes were: Ways to Teach Reading of the Narrative Text; Ways to Teach the Writing of Reflective Exposition; and Ways to Teach Guided Students (NT). It was a time of deep conversations about EL teaching and also a time where teachers from different clusters got to know one another better.
