ENGLISH WEEK
The English week started with
Spelling Marathon
I believe the fact that many native speakers have difficulty in spelling words correctly should not be a reason why we should neglect teaching good spelling. While teaching English, it is our duties as teachers to show students the correct rules as well as the exceptions made in informal English.

The second event was poetry Recitation.
Memorizing poetry isn’t much different. You start with a poem you like, recite it to yourself over and over, and you get to know the poem.
One of the best aspects of learning a poem by heart is that you get to take a poem inside of yourself. It becomes a part of you. That sounds touchy-feely, but it’s true. When you memorize a poem it is no longer just a poem, but your poem. It’s in your head, and you can call it up from memory as you would any other experience.
Also, memorizing a poem is a great way to truly get to understand the poem, and consider every phrase, line, and word. You can practice varying the sounds, adding pauses and emphasis in different spots to try to find the most accurate voice for the poem. In a way, you never really know a poem until you’ve memorized it. Once you know it inside-and-out, you’ll be able to recite it (to others or yourself), and like a jazz musician improvise inside the poem’s boundaries - adding your own words, re-wording a section of the poem, etc., to make it your own.
The third event was One act play/story enactment
What is Drama? Drama is a unique tool to explore and express human feeling. Drama is an essential form of behaviour in all cultures, it is a fundamental human activity. In this site we are investigating the benefits Drama can have on child development when applied functionally within a primary classroom. Drama has the potential, as a diverse medium, to enhance cognitive, affective and motor development. A high degree of thinking, feeling and moving is involved and subsequently aids in the development of skills for all other learning within and outside of schools (transfer of learning). Drama is a discrete skill in itself (acting, theatre, refined skill), and therefore it is offered as a 'subject' in secondary school. However Drama is also a tool which is flexible, versatile and applicable among all areas of the curriculum. Through its application as a tool in the primary classroom, Drama can be experienced by all children. Drama assists in the development of :
The SACSA Framework defines Drama as: 'the enactment of real and imagined events through role-play, play making and performances, enabling individuals and groups to explore, shape and represent ideas, feelings and their consequences in symbolic or dramatic form.' Types of Drama There are many forms of Drama. Here is a non-exhaustive list with a simple explanation of each: Improvisation / Let's Pretend A scene is set, either by the teacher or the children, and then with little or no time to prepare a script the students perform before the class. Role Plays Students are given a particular role in a scripted play. After rehearsal the play is performed for the class, school or parents. Mime Children use only facial expressions and body language to pass on a message tcript to the rest of the class. Masked Drama The main props are masks. Children then feel less inhibited to perform and overact while participating in this form of drama. Children are given specific parts to play with a formal script. Using only their voices they must create the full picture for the rest of the class. Interpreting content and expressing it using only the voice. Puppet Plays Children use puppets to say and do thngs that they may feel too inhibited to say or do themselves. Performance Poetry While reciting a poem the children are encourage to act out the story from the poem. Radio Drama Similar to script reading with the addition of other sound affects, The painting of the mental picture is important |

CHILDREN'S DAY AT V.V.D.A.V PRIMARY WING
14 Nov 2010
Children’s Day is celebrated all over the world on 20th November. In India the basis of Children’s Day is Jawaharlal Nehru’s Birth Day, which is celebrated on 14thNovember. Jawaharlal Nehru was always very concerned for children, loved them a lot and contributed immensely towards their development.
Children's Day Celebration |
The occasion of children’s Day is not only an opportunity to celebrate and enjoy, but it reminds us of the mission and message of Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru. He always wanted children all over the world to grow, prosper, get education and prosper in life.
Nostalgia..Our very own Chacha Nehru |
Jawaharlal Nehru popularly and fondly remembered as Chacha Nehru, always believed that children decide the future of any country or civilization. If the children of the country are provided with proper foundation and development opportunities, they can uplift the nation towards greater prosperity. On the other hand, failure to feed and educate the children prepares to burry all expectations of any nation.
Spectacular performances by students |
Therefore, amidst all this pomp and glory, we should not lose sight of Chacha Nehru's real message. That is providing our children with a safe and loving environment to grow as well as giving them ample and equal opportunities through which they can take great strides and contribute to the progress of the nation. This Day serves as a reminder to each and every one of us, to renew our commitment to the welfare of children and teach them to live by their Chacha Nehru's standards and example.
