A World of Words

Bee Curious teachers effectively model and explain new words, as studies show that this approach is the most successful for teaching vocabulary.

Children who have a wider vocabulary by the age of three gain a significant head start in their language development.

Rehearse and Retrieve

Bee Curious provides children with regular opportunities to revisit and practice concepts or skills, a process we call 'rehearse and retrieve'.

This repetition and retention process is crucial as our short-term memory can only hold a small amount of information, while our long-term memory has a vast capacity. As babies begin to learn and acquire new skills, they need repeated practice to ensure this knowledge is 'saved' in their long-term memory. Once stored, their working memory is free to focus on learning the next important thing in their life.

Books and Stories

Bee Curious emphasises fostering a love of books and stories, as sharing books with children helps build their vocabulary and inspires a lifelong love of learning.

Research shows that people who read for pleasure are more likely to succeed in life.
