Who it is for

For preschool educators and private teachers working with children aged 2–6 (7).

Programme aim

Support phrase and sentence building with visual models, combining speaking with games and practical activities.

Lesson format

A flexible lesson-building toolkit based on Interclass interactive modelling. The existing description provides for 1 to 5 lessons a week, depending on workload and preschool requirements.

A toolkit, rather than a rigid template

How learning works

The teacher sets the pace and combines materials to suit the topic and the group's readiness.

Modelling speech

Pictograms show the structure of a phrase. The teacher chooses models according to children's age and level; visual prompts support sentence building without memorising rules by rote.

Practising through play

Themed games, movement activities and songs are integrated into lessons. They help maintain the group's attention and remember the material.

Individual work

Worksheets for every topic let children complete their own task and show their parents the work they have done.

Guidance for the teacher

A sample lesson structure shows how to combine pictograms, games and worksheets into a learning process. It is an example that can be adapted to your preschool's timetable.

What children develop

Sentence building

Phrases and sentences supported by pictogram prompts.

Early reading

Working with phonemes using Jolly Phonics at a pace comfortable for the child. The methodology description includes starting from age 2.

Counting

Integrated counting activities: from 0–5 to 0–20. The teacher chooses the difficulty according to children's readiness.

Remembering the material

Themed songs and games help reinforce lesson material.

Visual support

More about the methodology

Adapting to kindergarten requirements

Standard plans are often tied to a set number of hours, so teachers need to adapt them. The Interclass toolkit lets teachers choose materials for the lesson frequency — from 1 to 5 a week — and the individual workload and requirements of Ukrainian preschools.

A visible structure for speech

A child may repeat a word after the teacher but need support to build a sentence. Pictograms show its structure — “transparent grammar”. Models are chosen according to the group's age and level.

Worksheets and communication with parents

Colourful tasks for every topic are designed for individual work. Completed worksheets help show parents what their child has worked on and make learning progress visible.

Reading, counting and practice

The adapted methodology combines early reading using Jolly Phonics with a mathematics component. Working with phonemes can begin from age 2 at a comfortable pace. Counting activities range from 0–5 to 0–20; the teacher chooses the difficulty according to children's readiness and kindergarten requirements.

Themed songs are integrated into lessons to help remember material. Games and movement activities are chosen for each vocabulary topic and help keep the group focused.

Teacher support

For preschool educators, the system and children's completed worksheets help report on their work to management. For private teachers, they support structured lessons and show parents progress through visual modelling.

Preparation involves choosing the necessary pictograms for the topic and printing worksheets. The sample lesson helps fit the materials to your timetable.

Estimates from the original description

The original description estimates designing a separate pictogram set from 3000 UAH, and worksheets at 2500 UAH or dozens of hours of work. It also mentions saving at least 15 hours a month searching for games, movement activities and songs. These are estimates from the original description and depend on the teacher's working conditions.
