Dear Parent, Due to COVID 19 we are already at home and enjoying company of our Family. Let’s explore ourselves more in this VACATION time. Vacations are of course a time to reinvigorate and revive. However, the duties of a student must not be forgotten either.

A balance, therefore between recreation and work must be found to ensure a break that is productive as well as relaxing. Holidays are meant for enjoyment and if this time is used for creative pursuits, it becomes learning experience. The holiday homework has been designed to be a meaningful and creative exercise. Do ensure the child is involved with your guidance and support.

For The Parents Be a Friend: Play games with your child like – Ludo, Carom-board or Scrabble. Sharpen Memory: Put a few things on a tray, show the tray to your child for a while and then cover the tray. Ask your child to name the objects which were on the tray. This activity will help enhancing the memory and vocabulary of your child.
