ALOHA has 3 Programs catering to 3 different age groups:

KIDS

8-13 years old

8 levels

The "KIDS Program" is divided into 8 levels, with each level having a duration of 3-4 months. The children attend classes 2 hours a week, along with five to ten minutes a day of take home exercises

Tiny Tots

5-7 years old

10 levels

The children attend classes 2 hours a week, along with five to ten minutes a day of take home exercises. The children initially uses ABACUS as an ideal learning tool to teach fundamental Math. The activity-based materials encourage their minds to think in different possible directions.

The TinyTots program is divided into 10 levels, with each level having a duration of 3-4 months. Because this program is aimed at younger children, it is paced more slowly than our "KIDS" program. Many parents prefer the Tiny Tots program because children’s minds are more adaptable and impressionable at this age.

Kinder Tiny Tots

4-5 years old

2 levels

It is a program aimed for preschool children to work different intelligences, taking the logical-mathematical as an axis. Kinder Tiny Tots is designed so that the student acquires all the necessary knowledge to obtain the maximum benefits of the ALOHA Tiny Tots program, all this bases on 3 key tools:

the abacus
multiple intelligences
mathematics

To work the 8 intelligences in the classroom will develop skills of all kinds, such as:

social skills
creativity
motor coordination
decision making
logic and problem resolution

Kinder Tiny Tots works with the emotional intelligence through a tool named "Wheel of emotions", where the students will identify and learn to self-regulate their own emotions and will communicate better with themselves and their environment.

Kinder Tiny Tots fuses the learning and use of abacus with the work of multiple intelligences, thus creating an integral and innovative educational program.
