NET Scheme

NET Scheme

 Learning English in the NET scheme program at Hennessy Road Government School (CWB) is purposeful and fun.

 The LETs and NET work together to provide an environment that is engaging and supports building the confidence of our students to take risks to communicate in English.

 The teachers implement a school-based English Language curriculum that embraces DTS (Development of Text Sets), which opens the door for rich multimodal resources that students enjoy out of school into the classroom.

 The themes and concepts of the DTS units are derived from the Primary Longman Elect text book topics and draws learning targets and objectives from the English Language Education Key Learning Area Curriculum Guide's strands of experience, knowledge, attitude and values and language skills.

Primary 1:

100 Days of School

In this unit, primary 1 students developed essential skills for engaging with their school community. They explored ways to build positive relationships, including making new friends and effectively managing their emotions. Through interactive NET lessons, students learned important values such as fostering a caring school environment, making wise choices, embracing diversity, and nurturing a growth mindset. The lessons highlighted the distinction between "I can't do it" and "I can't do it yet," encouraging students to persevere through challenges and believe in their capacity for improvement over time. By prioritizing social-emotional learning, the unit aimed to empower these young learners with the mindsets and skills necessary to thrive academically, socially, and personally within their inclusive school community.

Primary 2

I am a Responsible Primary 2 Student

In this unit, Primary 2 students delved into the concept of responsibility—at home, at school, and in their community. They discovered the significance of taking ownership and being accountable as they grow and develop. Through the core text, A Chair For My Mother, students learned how being responsible in different areas of their lives is essential. The story provided a relatable example of how fulfilling responsibilities can lead to positive outcomes. As a culminating activity, the students participated in a hands-on project where they created origami chairs. This creative endeavour allowed them to apply the lessons about responsibility and demonstrate their understanding in a tangible way. The unit aimed to instill a strong sense of accountability in these young learners, helping them recognize their roles and duties in various contexts. By emphasizing real-world examples and engaging them in meaningful projects, the school fostered a deeper appreciation for responsible behaviour and its broader impact.

Primary 3:

Growth Mindset

In this unit, Primary 3 students learned the importance of developing a growth mindset and how it can help them overcome challenges. Through engaging activities and discussions, they explored the concept that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and hard work. The unit emphasized the value of persistence, learning from mistakes, and viewing challenges as opportunities for growth. Students also learned to set SMART goals—Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound—by creating their own STAR goals (Specific, Targeted, Achievable, and Relevant). This structured approach allowed them to focus on personal growth and track their progress. By the end of the unit, students gained practical strategies to foster a growth mindset, empowering them to face difficulties with resilience and confidence in their ability to improve over time.

Let's develop a growth mindset!
