Jr.Kg-June & July 2016

Dear Parents,

In order to ensure holistic development of the child, it is essential that the school and parents continuously collaborate with each other. Therefore, we invite you to take a peek into the educational world of your child.

Once you are aware of your child’s learning schedule, you can assist and monitor your child’s overall development through positive reinforcement and encouragement.

Every month, we shall offer a new theme that introduces your child to different aspects of one’s environment. Various concepts in language, EVS, math, art and craft will be taught each month via a variety of engaging activities. Ipod applications and audio visuals will strengthen the learning of each concept.

A Sneak Peek:

Theme for the month: Fun with myself

Young children are focused on their own wants and needs, but as they grow older they become developmentally ready to form relationships outside their families and explore the world around them. Social studies for young ones begin with the child and gradually expand with their awareness of the world around them and their place in it, to include the immediate family, extended family, neighbourhood and community. Thus, through this theme your child will learn about knowing oneself, one’s family, home, class, school, one’s body, personal hygiene and one’s favourite things.

Language:

Your child will learn the letter ‘Ss’ with its phonic sound. The child will also learn rhymes, stories, show and tell, picture talk, book browsing, newspaper reading along with activities and pre-writing worksheets.

Do reinforce the use of the golden words – please, thank you and sorry.

By reading story books and making your home a print rich space, you will improve your child’s ability to master new learning.

Numeracy:

The child will be introduced to numerals, concepts of colour and size.
