Curiosity Cycle Club (CCC) english

Respect individuality.
Sponsor curiosity.

「個性を尊重し、好奇心を奨励しよう」

Frank Gehry（world renowned architect）

The Curiosity Cycle Club (CCC) program offers elementary school children the opportunity to belong to a select group, to learn and to have fun doing. They learn to:

ask questions to discover and develop their interests and skills,
recognize how they personally learn,
become aware of needs in the world through observation, and apply their learning to offer solutions.

Members share their learning through stories, media creation, Scratch programming, and entrepreneurship in a yearly Curiosity EXPO! We believe that each child’s individuality and curiosity are their keys to sharing value with the world. We sponsor their curiosity to nurture their joy of learning!

The Curiosity Cycle Club values:

personal interaction between members and facilitators, so our membership to facilitator ratio is low. (6-10 members : 1 facilitator)
individuals and the group, so we foster respect for diverse thinking in both

Purpose Driven Learning

目的志向型の学び

How are we different?

The program is bilingual, with no previous knowledge or experience in the second language required.
We welcome all children excited to dig deeper into their native language and learn a second language, too! This year, we will explore Japanese and English.

How can my actions change the whole world ?

Understand that what you do can have an impact on the world
What can I do to become a better me ?

Recognize your strengths and weaknesses and work on acquiring the skills you need
What tools do I want to pick up for my life journey ? English? Digital literacy?

Prepare and refine the abilities, processes and resources necessary to achieve your goals

We value positive attitudes, growth experiences and learning potential in our club!

Members have opportunities to drive their own projects and collaborate in teams. We facilitate knowledge, skills and tools growth and members drive their learning!

How can I use my good and bad experiences to become a better version of me?

Use successes and failures to grow and expand your possibilities

to travel toward my goals?

Imagine the “self” you want to be and design the necessary learning and experiences to achieve it
How can I apply what I learned in the classroom to my everyday life?

Make learned knowledge your own by applying it and putting it into practice

Facilitators both share information and facilitate members’ discovery and recognition of learning!

By exploring their interests, members begin to master metacognition and experience the joy of expanding and applying their knowledge, skills and tools to the world.

What questions give wings to my wonder and
bring me to answers?

Keep asking questions that drive your independent learning
How can I see the world through my friend’s eyes to understand their feelings better?
