In Pre Primary, the focus is on LSRW in which :-
Listening Skills: Includes songs, stories and poems.
Speaking Skills: Enables the child to read aloud stories, converse and recite poems. We also encourage students to participate in Show and Tell Activity.
Reading Skills: At Pre- Primary stage the sounds are taught in a specific order (not alphabetically) using the holistic approach- visual, aural and physical. This enables children to begin building words. Children also practice blending phonemes for reading through various activities and segmenting phonemes for spelling. For enhancing reading skills, we follow 3 steps to good reading:
1. Read aloud the words at least 3 times.
2. Call out the word and let the children point the word.
3. Point to a word (at random) and the child read it aloud.
Writing Skills: Pre – writing skills are the fundamental skills children need to develop before they are able to write so we begin with strokes which helps them to form letters . Also, they learn to write lower case a to z in order. We develop the skills to comprehend in the form of ‘Fill in the blank, Tick the correct answer, Opposites, Circle the odd word and answer the given questions.’
प्राथमिक स्तर पर विद्यार्थियों को अपनी मातृभाषा का ज्ञान होना आवश्यक है । इसी विचार को ध्यान में रखते हुए, हमारे विद्यालय में पूर्व प्राथमिक स्तर से ही हिन्दी भाषा को पाठ्यक्रम में शामिल किया गया है । प्रारम्भिक स्तर पर विद्यार्थियों में निम्न चार कौशलों के विकास हेतु प्रयत्न किया जाता है :-
1. सुनना:- कहानियों द्वारा ।
2. बोलना:- कहानियों पर आधारित प्रश्नोत्तर एवं कविताओं द्वारा
3. पढ़ना:- पाठ्य पुस्तक एवं कार्य पत्रक द्वारा ।
4. लिखना:- सभी वर्ण, स्वर एवं व्यंजन का लेखन, क्रमानुसार मात्राओं की जानकारी दी जाती हैं। हर मात्रा को लिखने तथा पढ़ने का पर्याप्त अभ्यास कराया जाता हैं।
In Math, at Pre-Primary level, we focus on laying the ground for sound development of Pre-Number Concepts and Numbers 1 to 10.
Environmental Studies (EVS) at the primary stage, the aim is to make students sensitized, explore, empowered and develop scientific attitude (i.e. Skills such as observation, discussion, explanation, experimentation, logical reasoning, through interaction) towards their immediate or wider surroundings through Arvind Gupta Toys & Experiments, projects and models, hands-on activities, research & application based exercises, SDGs, Chalk Talk, Making Connections, Atlas Hunt & Map Skills, Graphic Organizers, labelled diagrams, etc.

In Grade-IV, the learner identifies, differentiates and classifies parts of flowers, features of birds and animals, science location of objects or places, relationships with and among family members and extended families; explains or describes herd or group behaviours in birds and animals, changes and families & times, different skilled works, their inheritance and training in daily life, process of producing and procuring from source to home; groups the animals, birds, plants, objects, waste material for their observable features; suggests ways for hygiene, reduce, recycle, reuse and takes care of living beings, resources; records observations, experiences or information for objects, activities places visited, in different ways and predicts patterns.
In Grade-V, the learner identifies signs, directions, location of different objects/landmarks/places visited in maps and predicts directions; differentiates and classifies; explains and describes the super senses and unusual features of animals, the use of technology and process of basic needs in our daily life, the interdependence among animals, plants and humans, the role and functions of different institutions, guesses, estimates spatial quantities and time in simple standard units, verifies using simple tools or set-ups, records observations, experiences or information in an organised manner and predicts patterns in activities; establishes linkages among terrain, climate, resources and cultural life.
We at St. Stephen’s work with a vision to make every child succeed in enhancing their learning skills through innovative teaching methods using SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time- Bound) goals.
In Grade I & II, the focus under reading is to enable the child to read simple words, sentences, short stories and script on posters, newspaper, tickets, etc with proper pronunciation and fluency with the help of stories and text. Through reading, comprehension skills are also developed.
Listening and speaking enables the child to understand what they hear or read. It also helps the child to read aloud stories and recite poems with appropriate pause, rhyme, actions, expressions and pronunciation. To enhance the speaking skills of the child, a platform is given to narrate short stories in their own words and speak a few sentences through Show & Tell activities
Writing facilitates the child to go through the text to understand and identify the story elements (Characters & setting) and answer 5 WH questions with the help of Graphic Organizers.
In Classes III to V, the aim to learn English is to make the learners acquire proficiency for meaningful communication, develop interest and appreciation of Literature and competency-based learning skills for LSRW (i.e. Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing) in integrated manner in real life situation.
