Junior School - Standard IV and V
Course Work
Subjects taught at the primary school level include English,
Mathematics, Social Studies (History, Geography and Civics),
Sciences (Chemistry, Biology and Physics), a second language
(Tamil, Hindi or Malayalam), a third language (Tamil, Hindi or
Malayalam) and Environmental Education. All languages are taught
with a balanced emphasis on both the written as well as the
spoken aspects. We have formulated our own syllabus for Social
Studies and Sciences with an emphasis on activity-based
learning. The activities include the use of audio-visual aids,
art, craftwork, map work, experiments, field trips, projects and
group discussions. These activities are followed by extensive
written work.
Co-Curricular Work
At the junior school level, in addition to the course work, time
has been allocated for Moral Science, General Knowledge, Reading
and Spoken English. Also, once a week, children have a
substantial amount of time allocated for clubs (Quiz. Drama,
Science, Language and Math) or various school related
activities. These include Junior day (singing, elocution and
declamation) and Junior Annual Day (play practice, singing and
dance).
Computers
All students in the junior section have practical lessons on
using the computer centred around the Microsoft Office software.
The topics covered include the basics of Word, Excel, Publisher
and Power-point. They are also introduced to the basics of
programming by using the Q-basic language and learn about the
components of the computer (hardware). |
