Kids
It’s so fun to think with JLTP.
JLTP has funny things that make you think about them. “Heckle and Jeckle” was funny. Some of the characters can talk and they ask you questions.
I think JLTP is really good because it teaches me about differences between things and about facts and opinions.
JLTP is awesome because we learn about all sorts of different things. It makes you think. I really liked the ‘Thinking Donkey’.
I like JLTP because you get to watch a programme and you work in your scrapbook. It makes you think about what you’re watching and answer lots of questions.
I like it because you learn more things like about places and facts and opinions.
I like the JLTP activities and also you get to watch a story on a video.
Educators
All children are learning to think more laterally and question.
No “barriers” in scrapbook, freedom of expression.
Visually appealing.
It is inclusive. Increased self esteem and confidence.
Our teachers believe it is perfect to support what they are currently doing.
A fantastic programme aimed at this level allowing all children to participate.
Our students got very involved with the program and extended on it. Their favourite was Heckle & Jeckle. For weeks after they spent hours investigating the garden: what lived in there, what they ate and eventually we started a worm farm. The activity sheets were fantastic. I started a journal for each child and sent it home every week for the parents to see. I had a great response from the parents about this. I found after each session the children continued to question everything, it really got them thinking. I enjoyed the time spent with the children during this program, and i think they really benefitted from it.
Allows for reticent children to express their ideas in a safe comfortable environment.
Parents
My son talks abut what he have learnt in class during Thinking Program. Many times he can even explain why things are in certain ways. My son has definitely benefitted from this program.
Nok MckinnonI think this is an excellent program. I wish I can send my two other boys in your program.
Mrs LieI like this programme a lot as Aurdra has seen & noticed of improvement in her thinking, creative and communication ability.
Asvinder KaurWe have noticed positive effects including stimulation of creativity and imagination & better self-expression in Arisha.
Annabelle’s parentsShe is always interested in things around her. She is able to look forward to the future of what she wants to be. I saw a significant improvement in communication with the adults. After the thinking program, I notice : (a) Annabelle has beautiful dreams of her capabilities. (b) She hopes to give birth to smart babies. She wishes she can help her children to grow to be intelligent.
Garen’s parentsI felt Garen is able to open up more to things he had never tried before and with confident.
He always likes to ask a lot of question, ever since the course, he asks even more constructive question. Thanks.
Michelle LimSometimes Kartheinz’s creative way of thinking is different from mine but he is able to solve problems on his own without my guidance.
Reiden’s parentsThis program really helps Reiden to ask question which are “out of the box’ and think of creative answers. He came home from the class challenging me with the question he learnt.
Karen LeeTJ loves this program. I like that he is reasoning out a problem/question and can provide several scenarios/explanations for it.
Isaac’s parentsIsaac recently has different ways of solving problems when one way did not work out. Very satisfied with this improvement!
There is a significant improvement in her attitude, confidence and speaking!
She retains so much information from the discussions, it is impressive!
Jess’ parentsJess is more expressive now.
Timple KumudhaWe were quite amazed to see our son’s ability to advertise a product in supermarket. We are happy to see much improvement in his thinking views.
Mum of DionneRecently, I brought my 6 year old daughter and teenage son to a hypermart. While shopping, we sighted a bird who has lost its way and flew into the hypermart by mistake. Worried that the lost bird will eventually starve and freeze to death, I asked my children what we could do to help? My 6 year old chirped: “Why don’t we buy some bread and drop crumbs to lead the bird out through the exit?” I was pleasantly surprised by her simple yet practical problem solving skills!
Mrs YappGood program and my child is able to think “outside of the box”.
Tim Shee’s parentsTim Shee is more inquisitive to seek understanding from the observations he sees daily. More confident and mature. Thank you.
Definitely more inquisitive!
Our child starts to think way of doing things. He will ask “why” in every talk.
Ming Feng’s parentsIt is evident that Ming Feng exhibits greater flexibility in solving problem or at play at home. He has greater assurance and confidence when given to solve problem/task independently.
JLTP enables our child to think and focus positvely.
Ansell’s parentsThank you for the progress report, Teacher Esther. Just a note to let you know that Ansell enjoys this program very much. Every week he asks me the questions that he learns in class amd proudly shares with me the answers to the questions. Thank you for the great work!
Ivan’s parentsThanks for making the lesson so interesting. The interactiveness of the programme is very good and it also gets the kids to think creatively and critically, which is extremely important for their future. It will be good if it could be part of the focus of the current traditional schooling. My son, Ivan, enjoys it very much. Thank you for introducing JLTP!
Mark’s parentsMark is able to think out of the box and he seems to be very interested with little things.
