Sr.Kg  –August  2016 

Theme for the month:Animal Kingdom

Tomorrow’s diversity depends on teaching today’s children to conserve wildlife and value and appreciate the same. Awareness of conservation begins when children are young. Thus taking, ‘Extinct and Endangered species’ as the theme for the month, your little oneswill learn about these species and also one’s role and responsibility as a global citizen. We look upon the young generation to be a part of the conservation drive and help us conserve planet Earth.

Effective usage of Audio Visual learning, technology and Role plays will be used as a methodology.

Language:

Introduction to digraphs and the revision of the below mentioned tricky words.

you, your, all, are, do, so, no, go, my.

Phonic books will reinforce the concepts learnt.

Do reinforce the use of new vocabulary: gobble,gulp,swallow,conversation,talk,chat

anxious,worried,nervous,dirty,soiled,pollute.

Numeracy:

The child will learn numerals from 1 – 40 with number names three and four and five. We shall also do concepts of matching, introduction to oval shape with recapitulation of other shapes.

The concept of the Rainbow and its colours will be explained.

At Home You Can: Encourage your children to watch television programmes and films on endangered species that stress the importance of conservation. The more dialogue you have with your children about wildlife conservation,the more opportunities there are for them to appreciate the importance of our diverse and fragile ecology.

You may donate a portion of the child’s allowance to a reputable conservation group.
