HAI YIN’S THREE-DAY WEEK

Two days of core English. One day of science through English.

Hai Yin uses English-language course materials throughout the week. Two days use original Everybody Up materials from Oxford University Press to build formal listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. One day uses original BrightSteps English STEAM materials from UNNAGROUP Education to carry the week’s language into observation, measurement, comparison, design, and testing. The balance keeps language learning rigorous while adding challenge, variety, and a practical reason to use English.

Day 1

Core English | Understand and build

Use original Everybody Up materials to establish the week’s vocabulary, sentence patterns, pronunciation, and classroom comprehension.

Day 2

Core English | Practise and express

Develop the new language through conversation, reading, writing, feedback, and purposeful sentence use.

Day 3

Science through English | BrightSteps STEAM

Observe, predict, design, run a fair test, and explain results in English so that the week’s language becomes something students can genuinely use.

BRIGHTSTEPS ENGLISH STEAM|NOW AT HAI YIN

Ideas become designs. Evidence becomes better decisions.

BrightSteps gives students a reason to use English. Each field mission begins with a real need and moves through investigation, design, testing, revision, and explanation. Students learn that a strong idea is not simply announced—it is built, tested, and supported with evidence.

01 Ask & Define

Understand the need

Identify the user, the problem, and the criteria that will define success.

02 Find & Imagine

Investigate possibilities

Compare materials, gather observations, and turn findings into a thoughtful plan.

03 Make & Test

Learn from results

Build a first design, conduct a fair test, and record what actually happens.

04 Improve & Explain

Defend the revision

Use evidence to improve the design and explain why the change makes sense.

Communication with a real purpose

Students ask, negotiate, compare, and explain because the work requires it—not because a worksheet asks for a sentence.

Thinking families can see

Plans, measurements, test results, and reflections create a visible record of how an idea develops.

One mission, multiple entry points

Language support and challenge can vary while students remain part of the same team and the same meaningful task.

Frequently asked questions

What families want to know

How do you determine the right class for a student?

We consider grade level, prior learning, current skills, classroom readiness, and schedule. The goal is a class that offers genuine challenge without placing the student beyond productive support.

What does English-led instruction look like?

English is the primary language of classroom interaction. Teachers use modeling, visuals, pacing, and carefully sequenced questions to make meaning accessible, adding brief clarification only when it protects understanding.

Is BrightSteps a separate science class?

BrightSteps is an English STEAM program. Students use English to investigate, plan, test, document, and explain. Language development and problem-solving happen within the same experience.

What support is available when a student struggles?

Teachers identify the specific skill or concept that needs attention and provide focused, complimentary review support rather than asking families to solve the gap on their own.
