GIS understand the importance of our young learners being digitally literate.

During the preschool years, young children develop a sense of initiative and creativity. They are curious about the world around them and about learning. They are exploring their ability to create and communicate using a variety of digital tools such as (desktop, tablets, I-Pads, Beebots and laptops). 

At GIS we understand the importance of our young learners being digitally literate. As such, we allow children to freely explore touch screens loaded with a wide variety of well designed developmentally appropriate, interactive media experiences that develop the ability to understand and use technology. As well as find and create information online which enhance feelings of success. 

Digital technologies provide one more outlet for children to demonstrate their creativity and learning. At GIS, through the use of technology, creative movement, singing, dancing, and using their bodies, children get an opportunity to express and represent their ideas and experiences.
