I have learned so much through the Kwena Basic Education Trust and for that I would like to take this opportunity to say: thank you.

Thank you for introducing me to this "life skill". It is wonderful that there is also an online, interactive, support system with resources available.

I realize that children need to know their basic concepts so that they can develop understanding of the content of the curriculum.

It is a method of teaching…to establish the basic foundations or building blocks in order for children to make sense of the environment around them.

It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.

‘BCP is foundational to a child's learning. It is the building blocks on which all other concepts are built. A concept needs to be fully understood by a child before a new concept can be taught. We often rush children's learning due to time constraints which is not correct.’ (KIDZPOSITIVE, Occupational Therapist, 2011)
