CLASS-PRE SCHOOL
The sun shines bright and high
That’s what makes us want to fly.
Because summer Holidays are a lot of fun,
There are exciting activities to be done.
So let’s enjoy this vacation with glee,
More fun, more activities that’s our plea.
Dear Parents,
Summer brings with it the ever Smiling sun, Fresh breeze, Blossoming flowers and
HOLIDAYS! It is time when the parents become teachers and friends. Vacations help to
rejuvenate your child and develop an everlasting bond between you and your child by
devoting your precious time towards him/her.
Allow us to facilitate you to help your child explore his / her environment. Make optimum
use of this time to cultivate your child’s interest in co-curricular activities.
As the school closes for the summer break w.e.f May 18, 2015, we have planned some
activities, worksheets and projects for your child to enhance his / her learning skills in a
fun filled way.
To encourage your child’s self esteem and feeling of competence, help your child discover
his / her hidden talents and interests. Keeping the same objective in mind we have divided
the homework into four different categories.
1. The first category includes Skill based Activities which can be helpful for the little
ones in improving their fine motor skills and concentration skills.
2. The second category comprises of Fun-Activities which can be done with your
children at home so that you have the opportunity to spend some quality time with
them which can be informative and interesting at the same time.
3. The third is making interesting project work- Experiential Learning.
4. The last and the most interesting is Logic behind the scene where in kids will
explore and learn through small and handy experiments.
Kindly help and
guide your child in
completing his / HER
work and also
exploring his / HER
creative self.
Submit the given homework in a handmade carry bag with clearly mentioned
name, class and section.
Kindly take the coloured printout of the worksheets. It
would be wonderful if the children themselves decorate the
carrybag while unlocking their creativity.

A huge Amount of success in life comes from learning.
It's good to help kids understand that when they do certain
things habitually, they're reinforcing patterns.

group following points should be kept in mind: Should not pluck flowers and leaves.

to make it part of the frog's mouth. Cut two cups from an egg carton,
paint them green, add googly eyes, and glue them to the box for the
