Rocket Readers is an activity club, which offers different programs for children between 1.5 – 13 years. The program examines how young kids learn to read, why many struggle, and how our trained staff can help. We bring the best research-based strategies and help young child to become a strong reader. Our goal is to spread the love for reading. Children should be able to understand and use what th
ey learn. We create ever lasting impressions. They go far deeper than facts, figures or features. And by creating a story-based experience, one can make children to walk away with an impression of story. We believe that learning to read is about listening and understanding. Through hearing stories, children are exposed to a rich and wide vocabulary. This helps them build their own vocabulary and improve their understanding when they listen, which is vital as they start to read. It’s important for them to understand how stories work as well. Even if your child doesn’t understand every word, they’ll hear new sounds, words and phrases, which they can then try out, copying what they have heard. Rocket Readers introduces the best possible language, social and literacy skills in young children through certified courses by Trinity College London (TCL). TCL Certificated Exams that are conducted by TCL Examiners from London. Trinity College London is an international examining board that has been providing assessments since 1877 and examines over 600,000 students every year from around the world. Based on years of experience, Rocket Readers has chosen these exams which will benefit students the most
We offer four programs:
Young Performer Certificates (Bronze, Silver and Gold) is a great way to start. This course aims at building students confidence to speak, and all the basic skills of presentation and communication in English.The Young Performers Certificates are awards, not examinations. It is a child centered introduction to performance. Groups of nine to twelve children may enter for these awards by presenting to a Trinity examiner. The children create and explore stories, songs, roles and situations through music, movement, singing, dancing and puppetry. The groups perform with the teacher and are gradually weaned off to an individual performance. The Certificates are available at three levels –
¥ Bronze
¥ Silver
¥ Gold
Speech & Communication Arts and Speech & Drama focus on presentation and communication skills of students, and moving on challenge students using good performance skills such as articulation, body movements and emotion. Content includes poetry speaking, sight reading, story-telling and improvisation. As the students move on to higher grades it concentrates on performance of verse and prose, allows for the development of interpretation and presentation skills.
