The KSSR curriculum is very pupil-centred with an emphasis on fun learning amidst promoting critical and creative thinking,

reasoning skills, communication and ICT literacy.


Learning is more fun and the approaches used include projects-and-activity-based and problembased learning, with ICT components introduced as early as Year One.


We definitely have to modify the materials we used to show in class so that English will always be a fun subject for young learners. Also, with the new syllabus, we need to try and design activities that will develop their reasoning skills.


Since it is very pupil-centred, we need to withdraw from being the focus of the lesson and make our pupils to be in the centre of learning.


In conclusion, The KSSR requires teachers to apply classroom strategies which promote creative and critical thinking and innovation among pupils.


Teachers need to carry out teaching and learning activities which are student-centred, provide opportunities for pupils to explore and test their hypotheses and ideas, solve problem and most importantly provide a fun learning environment.
