Set-Up of Project

Teachers from 4 circuits in the Namaqua District will attend a 2-day orientation workshop in Springbok, Northern Cape. District and Provincial officials will also attend the orientation workshop.

After the workshop the teachers willl start to implement the first two conceptual domains of colour and shape in their classrooms.

The District and Provincial officials will accompany the Project Leader on his mentoring visits to these project teachers to help them with the implementation.

While the District officials will be expected to provide support to the project teachers, the Provincial officials will return to their districts to implement the programme with a small group of learners.

Die Basiese Konsepte Program het my self vertroue weer op gebou. My taal gebruik en my manier van dinge doen het ook verander. Ek is baie bly en gelukking om deel uit te maak van die Basiese Konsepte Program.

Pixley Kaseme: Training Sessions 1+2

Thank you Louis for you dedication and enthusiasm. We need our teachers to be enthused with a love of children and a passion for mediating to our learners. God Bless.

Metro Central (2013): Training

I am extremely grateful for being exposed to this programme … I'm always worried about those learners who are not progressing. The programme can support these learners in order to lay the foundation for academic progress. Practically my whole class needs this Foundation!!! How can I start with formal teaching if they do not know their Basics.

Metro South Education District: Training (January, 2013)

The training was very effective and informative … and gave us insight into how to teach and develop language. I wish there could be more of such training to develop ourselves further.

Metro South Education District: Teacher Training (February, 2014)

‘It is an excellent programme. Just a pity that not all reception year educators are exposed to the training. My understanding of the programme- it is developed to systematically mediate concepts so that learners are guided to develop an understanding and so that learning is meaningful.’ (Metro Central, 2012)
