The education, which is imparted to the students during the first 5-6 years of their schooling
infact, decides their future. It is only during these formative years that the students learn basic operations of mathematics and four skills of language learning viz listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
It has been seen that students in primary classes don’t listen to their teachers and don’t remain attentive. But the question is-why does it happen? Why don’t they remain attentive? The answer is very simple because they don’t approve of the pedagogy. Teachers using chalk and talk methods or those who even teach them as the grown ups ought to be taught –fail miserably to drawn the attention of the whole class. If they are not made attentive with the child –friendly-methods of-teaching, their plinth will remain weak.
If the child is equipped with skills of language learning up to class V-his/her grip on EVS and Maths will automatically get stronger. Each student should be in position to read newspaper of English and Hindi both at time of passing class V.
All PRTs are appealed through this message to ensure. MLL (Minimum level of learning) in language and Mathematics up to class V. Only then we can hope for the bright future of the students of KVS.
The students who become slow learners in middle and secondary stages lose their interest in studies due to their poor grip on languages and basic operations in Maths. Imagine a student who knows how to add but he can’t do the sum of addition where verbal input is given in the form of a statement. Non-understanding of the concepts due to poor knowledge of languages further frustrates the students who don’t fare well in academics and ultimately important human resources are made non-productive by the existing educational systems.
