Message of the month Dear Parents, By this time students are well settled in the school environment ,therefore we believe that they are ready to start their curriculum activities. Our first theme of the curriculum was “My School”. It was the most interesting topic for the young ones. At this age children are enthusiastic to work independently, to explore their surroundings and to do their work in their own way. This is a very useful way to know child’s likes, dislikes and trends towards different areas of learning through interactive games. Moreover ,another fascinating and interesting theme of “Birthdays” will be presented to the children in this month and new readers “Teds Party Bus “ and “Happy Birthday Goose” will also be introduced in relation to the theme. They will get awareness about living and non-living things. They will also explore how they developed and changed from a baby to a toddler by the passage of time. In relevance to this theme while participating in a variety of activities they will learn about the birthday celebrations.
