BINUS SCHOOL Surabaya Expands to Grades 2 and 3, Pioneering Future-Ready Education Through S.T.R.E.A.M.

BINUS SCHOOL Surabaya has just taken a big step forward by opening Grades 2 and 3. Originally, Grade 3 was set to start only when 10 students had enrolled, but we’re thrilled to bring this forward to meet the growing demand for quality education. 

This expansion means more students can now experience our S.T.R.E.A.M. approach, designed to help them prepare for the future.

What is S.T.R.E.A.M.?

You might be familiar with STEAM–Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. But what is the addition of R in S.T.R.E.A.M.?

The R in S.T.R.E.A.M. stands for Reading. Thus, S.T.R.E.A.M. stands for Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, and Math. 

It’s a modern teaching method that doesn’t focus solely on individual subjects but combines them into an exciting and practical learning experience. 

By bringing these subjects together, S.T.R.E.A.M. creates an engaging and well-rounded education. They also get to work on hands-on projects that connect the dots between science experiments, engineering challenges, and artistic creations. This approach equips students with the tools needed to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Here’s how each part of S.T.R.E.A.M. contributes to young children’s learning:

• Science: Fuels curiosity and teaches kids to ask ‘why’ and ‘how’ through experiments and discovery. They will learn to think critically and explore the world around them.
• Technology: It’s more than just computers! From simple tools to high-tech gadgets, technology helps kids understand how things work and how they can create their own solutions.
• Reading: Builds communication and literacy skills that are crucial for every other subject. Reading is at the heart of S.T.R.E.A.M., from analysing a science article to enjoying a good story.
• Engineering: Encourages problem-solving through building and designing. See how their creativity comes to life as they create and construct.
• Arts: Adds colour and creativity to learning. Whether it’s through drawing, music, or drama, the arts let kids express themselves and think outside the box.
• Mathematics: The foundation for logical thinking and problem-solving. Math helps kids understand and interpret the world around them from patterns to measurements.

The BINUS SCHOOL Surabaya curriculum merges these six components into fun learning activities, both in and outside the classroom, that offer students a comprehensive and engaging educational experience.

Breaking Down Barriers Between Subjects

Traditional education often treats subjects as separate entities, but the S.T.R.E.A.M. approach blurs these lines, showing students how interconnected and interdisciplinary knowledge truly is. This holistic perspective helps students see the bigger picture and understand how concepts from one area can inform and enhance another.

For example, a science experiment might require mathematical calculations, while a technology lesson could involve designing an artistic presentation. This integrated learning helps kids see the bigger picture and sparks their curiosity.

Personalised Learning for Every Child

At BINUS SCHOOL Surabaya, we know that every child is unique. That’s why we focus on personalised learning, tailoring education to fit your child’s strengths, interests, and needs. Whether your little one is a budding scientist, an aspiring artist, or a future tech wizard, our approach ensures they feel supported and inspired.

What makes it even better? Hands-on projects! 

Kids don’t just learn from books; they roll up their sleeves and get creative. Picture your child designing an art piece based on mathematical patterns. These projects aren’t just fun; they also help build kid’s confidence and skills.
