We made a new time table and followed it and in this time table we have put more oral activities. Children can copy and write but are weak in oral so we are focusing more on making them do oral exercises. This month we took test 2 times and the children who seemed weak we paid more attention to them. This month for 2 weeks we were not able to studies very much because it was too cold and also that lots of children had chicken pox so few children were in class. We showed them Tom and Jerry and Bal Ganesha and the children really enjoyed it a lot. In drawing we made the children colour different shapes on glaze paper and made a story of a jungle out of it. We are teaching the children how to introduce themselves. .

This month lots of parents told us that we are wanting to do admissions in school so they are asking us to prepare the children for the interviews that is why we are making them do more oral things like fruit names, vegetable names, parts of the body and colour names. We told children poems with action so that the children can do it again in school themselves. In writing we made the children learn the spelling of 1 to 10, colour names, and the spelling of their names. This month we told the children about hygiene, like what to do before and after meals and after using toilet to wash your hands
appropriately, we are also telling them to clean your nose with a clean tissue paper and get clean tiffin for lunch. It was holi so we made the children draw rangoli on the floor of the class room. The children were very happy in this activity.
