At AlphaMinds Academy, we believe in providing a strong foundation in education through our Logic program for children 3-5 years old. Logic serves as the cornerstone of mathematics, reasoning, cognitive thinking, and various other disciplines. While logic is not traditionally taught in classrooms, we have developed an interactive educational program at AlphaMinds Academy that brings logic concepts to life and instills a sense of excitement for learning in children. Research has consistently shown that children who are encouraged to understand the thinking process, which is at the core of logic, tend to develop qualities such as inquisitiveness, creativity, confidence, compassion, and effective communication skills. Our Logic Program is designed to nurture these qualities by helping young children develop their thought processes, reasoning abilities, and critical thinking skills, providing them with essential tools for their formative years and beyond. Spanning a two-year curriculum, our program covers all the topics found in prominent assessments such as the OLSAT® test (Otis-Lennon School Ability Test®), the NNAT-2® test (Naglieri Nonverbal Ability Test), and the ERB test. Under the guidance of our experienced teachers, children will explore arithmetic facts, engage in interactive logic games, solve carefully selected riddles and puzzles, and participate in activities specifically designed to foster logical and critical thinking skills. At AlphaMinds Academy, we are committed to empowering children with the ability to think critically, reason effectively, and approach problem-solving with confidence. Our Logic Program provides a stimulating learning environment where children can develop these fundamental skills while having fun and enjoying the journey of intellectual growth. At AlphaMinds Academy, we provide both in-person and online classes, ensuring a personalized learning experience. Our classes are conducted in small group settings to promote active participation and engagement. Additionally, private tutoring is also available upon request. Feel free to reach out to us at info@alphamindsacademy.com for more information regarding terms and availability.
