Nurture uses new approaches to develop the skill to compose well. Instead of keywords, for example, composition involves research, and posing and answering questions that span a wide range of an issue. For example, on the topic birds as shown above, students explore the sounds birds make, the distances they fly to, which birds do not fly and those that are extinct, which birds are called messengers of peace or scavengers and why, what can we do to save the birds and more...

Children form groups to research each of their queries and come back to present their findings. Teachers engage children in more critical analysis before they commit their compositions in writing. Combined with arts, crafts, music, GK, computers, and drama, the children have a whole new understanding of a topic – its thematic work that combines social studies, science and environmental education.

If our objective is to build the capacity of our children to better express in English, these methods are very useful. In addition, these processes develop critical thinking skills including skills to research on a new topic, use imagination, ask good questions, etc.
