Student-Centered âĸ Inquiry-Based âĸ Project-Driven
A comprehensive, implementation-ready curriculum designed for Chaoyang Kaiwen Academy Grade 3 students, integrating Cambridge Global English 4, National Geographic Reach Higher 3, and Cambridge Primary Science 4.
Students drive their own learning through inquiry, wonder questions, and project choice. Every unit offers 3 project options for authentic student voice and differentiation.
Essential questions guide exploration. Students wonder, investigate, and discover rather than passively receive information. Critical thinking is embedded in every lesson.
Learning culminates in authentic projects presented to real audiences. Students create videos, designs, reports, and presentations that demonstrate deep understanding.
