A Curriculum for Life: An In-depth Look at the IntelliBee® Curriculum

The IntelliBee® Curriculum has been extensively developed with the aim of fostering a new generation of intelligent, balanced and happy children by incorporating everything that can support healthy development. The following are the key characteristics of the design of the IntelliBee® Curriculum that give rise to this objective and make it one of the most effective, novel systems in education today:

1. It is a complete life cycle curriculum: Though it considers the early years of extreme importance, the curriculum can be applied at any age. It is preferably begun with young adults preparing them physically, emotionally and mentally as individuals. From here, it prepares the individual to function favorably within a relationship and then works with the couple during pre-conception, pregnancy and birth on how to create the internal and external environments that will maximize development. IntelliBee® then progressively continues its all-embracing preparation with the infant, the toddler, the pre-schooler, the elementary school child all the way up to the high school student finalizing the cycle where it was begun. It will even benefit grandparents and all their progeny, by activily participating in it, giving total meaning to its name: “A curriculum for life”. It is a complete approach that prepares the human being for the next generation and with the passage of time, enhances successive generations and ultimately, the human race.

2. Designed with the WHOLE person in mind: Unlike other systems that are largely based on physical and mental development, IntelliBee® closely guards emotional development and as a result, it is able to prevent the many physical and mental difficulties that result from overlooking this most important aspect. Furthermore, by properly caring for the emotional while simultaneously guarding the physical aspect of the child, the system removes all blocks to learning and safely achieves the maximum development of the child’s mental/cognitive aspect. Via the unique classroom structure and the environment created by parents and teachers that complete IntelliBee® trainings, children receive the freedom, space and respect to properly develop their individual needs. The result of this is children that have optimal development in all areas and have a deep sense of self-worth.

3. Curriculum naturally allows for individualized instruction: The IntelliBee® Educational System, more than just a curriculum, is the creation of an appropriate environment where, with guidance and well-defined parameters, the child is allowed to freely move within that environment to satisfy his individual innate curiosity. The classroom follows a 3-year open classroom model that allows the child, with guidance, to fulfill his individual needs and interests within the extensive curriculum that includes the physical, emotional and mental aspects. The child is stimulated to act freely within this environment whether in groups or on his own to accomplish the objective of meeting his necessities for learning. When you place the child in a highly stimulating and free environment such as the IntelliBee® Educational System, he cultivates his inherent drive to learn and makes it a habit that he will function through all through life.

4. Covers all branches of knowledge in the sciences and arts from the beginning: The IntelliBee® curriculum is a comprehensive program of study that covers all branches of knowledge in the sciences and arts from the beginning ensuring constant academically rich stimulation. As children receive an initial exposure early on to all subjects in a fun and relaxed multi-disciplinary manner, intelligence is stimulated and the foundations are laid for effortless learning later. As the child progresses through this all-encompassing curriculum, all that needs to be done is to deepen the knowledge he’s already been exposed to.

In the IntelliBee® system, the child is not taught based on age (a limiting approach as children within the same age group vary in capacity); the child is taught based on his individual capacity for learning. Via the unique IntelliBee® methodology that makes room for individualized instruction in the classroom while closely guarding the child’s emotional development and state, IntelliBee® is able to safely present seemingly advanced subjects early on to each child as his capacity allows. This gentle yet highly stimulating approach results in highly motivated and balanced children that love to learn and have a well developed capacity for knowledge.

5. It is an all-inclusive integrated curriculum: The IntelliBee® curriculum is organized in an integrated manner where all curricular themes are taught via all subject matters. By crossing over subject lines to teach each curricular theme, meaningful associations are created throughout the disciplines. This reality-based way of teaching engages the student and internalizes the lessons in a more significant way resulting in more effective and enjoyable learning.

6. Curriculum is applied in a precise ORDER that brings about maximum learning and health: Order is the symbol of physical, mental and emotional health as all else is disorder. IntelliBee® brings order back to education with its unique orderly design and resulting simple implementation. The special order of the curriculum’s design provides both the teacher and child with the necessary ease, security and support as to leave no room for mental and emotional disorders. Making teaching and learning an easier task, order consequently creates the space for both adults and children to enjoy and benefit significantly more from the learning process. Moreover, receiving knowledge in an orderly fashion organizes the storage of information in the child’s brain maximizing retention and recollection.

7. Restores proper function of every part in the learning process: Via an in-depth comprehension of the root of dysfunction, the curriculum has been elaborated in a manner where the child, parent and teacher come to reclaim their appropriate individual function. When functions are in order, teachers/parents become happier and more competent and frustrations and dysfunctions are prevented for all.

8. Adherence to a dynamic that is in accord with nature: When we look around at our natural environment, all we see is order and proper function. The IntelliBee® Educational System intends for learning to be a natural occurrence. It seeks not to violate the laws of nature rather harmonizes with nature so that order can follow its function.
