Calling all PSLE graduates and Secondary-bound students! Learn about Language Arts through popular culture and media this holiday at Academia’s Secondary 1 Prep Programme!
The Language Arts programme in the Secondary English level is a poignant shift in competency focus, with Literature as an added element. Academia’s Secondary 1 Prep Programme is a 6-week course that offers an eye-opening dive into a different aspect of Language Arts each week.
Students will be gaining new perspectives through the exploration of various iconic popular culture media, like songs and movies, using the critical lens of higher-order skills that are essential for Secondary English. At the end of the course, students will have gained not just skills for the Secondary English level, but also a more matured understanding of language.
