Bienvenido a Elementary
Extendemos una cordial bienvenida a la Primaria del Colegio Decroly Americano. Si bien la mayoría de nuestros estudiantes en los grados 1-5 son guatemaltecos, también contamos con estudiantes de muchas otras nacionalidades. Nuestro personal docente incluye maestros nacionales y extranjeros, que contribuyen a la experiencia educativa enriquecedora.
Nuestro curriculum se basa en estándares guatemaltecos y estadounidenses. Ofrecemos en inglés las materias de Science, Social Studies, Math, Language Arts, Technology y Music. Las clases de Comunicación y Lenguaje y las áreas prácticas – Educación Física y Arte – se ofrecen en español. Se cuenta con un programa variado de cocurriculares y refuerzo en matemática, inglés y español.
Para atender necesidades especiales se ofrece el Programa de Atención a Necesidades Individuales (PANI) y el English Intervention Program (PANI) para estudiantes de nuevo ingreso que necesitan apoyo en la adquisición del Inglés.
Our methodology is interactive, and instruction is supported by online resources. We use a developmental approach to reading and writing which allow the students to learn and work at their own pace until mastery is achieved. Our goal is to develop skills in the areas of academics, social interaction, and emotional and physical skills. We encourage the students to find solutions and make decisions assertively and independently.
Nuestra prioridad es el bienestar y el desarrollo del niño como persona. Seguimos el Manual de Estudiantes y Padres para mantener una comunidad saludable.
