Grade-2

“Longer days and shorter night

Dark shades and brighter lights

Favourite music and best friends

Do not keep away pencils and pens

This time only comes once in a year

So live it up without inhibition and fear.”

Dear Children

Its vacation time again. During long afternoon, beat the heat by staying

indoor and doing something interesting and innovative activities. This

summer break, try and make a difference with help of following things.

A healthy mind resides in a healthy body. Start your day early and

set your routine even in your vacations. Learn to take care of personal

hygiene by inculcating habits like brushing teeth twice a day, trimming

nails, bath daily etc.

Experience and value nature. Go for a walk with your family. Do

cycling, swimming, yoga etc. to keep yourself fit and fine.

Happiness is where you care, help and share. Do help around the

house by doing small jobs, like filling water bottle, arranging your toy

shelf, etc. Be polite and respectful.

Conserve nature. Plant trees, feed the birds with water. Minimize the

use of electrical appliances, switch off the A.C., TV when not in use.

Good manners are the key to success. Respect your parents,

grandparents, use the three magic words i.e. sorry, thank you, please.

Family bonding. Children improve relationship and bond with their

family members by interacting with each other. So, plan a picnic or trip

with your parents and grandparents.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Dear Parents,

Different types of languages are spoken by people from different

regions, but the most important thing is that any language when spoken

should be spoken correctly. The two common languages that our

children should be able to speak fluently are Hindi and English. Since

English is a universal language spoken and understood by people all over

the world, we want our children also to be proficient in speaking it and

for this we need full support and cooperation. We would appreciate if

you adhere to the following points:

1. Speak with your child in English. Encourage reading habits.

2. Read out story-books and after finishing the story discuss it with

your child.

3. Encourage Word Building and Picture Talk.

The teachers are trying to encourage the children to use simple words,

phrases and sentences like:-

• May I go to play?

• May I borrow your pencil / eraser / sharpener?

• I have finished my work

. • Madam, may I go to the washroom?

• Madam, may I go to drink water?

• Madam, may I come in please?

• Madam, may I go to the bookshop / tailor shop?

• Madam, may I go to wash my hands?

• Madam, may I go to pay my school fees?

• Madam, may I sit in the front row as I can’t see from the back?

• Madam, please repeat the concept as I’m unable to understand it.

• Madam, I have lost my shoes / blazer / tiffin box / water bottle etc.

• Madam, I came late as I missed my bus.

• Madam, I’m sorry. I forgot to bring my book, note book, pencil / eraser / drawing book etc.

. • Madam, I’m sorry I couldn’t complete my Home Work as I was unwell.

• Madam, may I borrow a pencil / eraser / ruler etc. from my partner as I forgot to bring it today.

• I am sorry for the delay.

• Could you please hand me the book?

• Could you please shut the door? Use of magic words like excuse me, sorry, thanks, please.

• When asking for something, say “Please.”

• When receiving something, say “Thank you.”

• Do not interrupt grown-ups who are speaking with each other unless there is an emergency.

• If you need to get somebody's attention right away, the phrase “excuse me” is the most polite way for you to enter the conversation.

• When you have any doubt about doing something, ask permission first. It can save you from many hours of grief later.

When you have spent time at your friend's house, remember to thank

his or her parents for having you over and for the good time you had.

• Knock on closed doors and wait to see if there's a response before entering.

Children can be encouraged to use simple words and sentences at home

also. For example –

• Mummy, may I help you in the kitchen?

• Mummy, may I lay the table today?

• Mummy, should I help you wash the dishes today?

• Papa, may I help you wash the car?

• Grandpa, should I come with you for a walk?

• Grandma, should I help you put the thread in the needle?

• Mummy, may I get you a glass of water?

• Mummy, may I take some more Ice-Cream from the fridge?

• Papa, I’m sorry I was rude to you.

• Papa, please teach me how to ride a bicycle.

• Mummy, may I join the summer workshop in the school?

• Mummy, may I help you wash and soak the rice?

• Mummy, should I cut the salad today?

• Mummy, I will make a cup of tea for you. Please tell me where are the tea leaves.

• Mummy, can you teach me to make cold coffee please?

• Didi, can you help me find my English note book?

• Papa, can we go cycling together today?

Wishing people properly – Hello Uncle / Aunty how are you?

Wishing parents and elders Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good

Evening and Good Night.

If we, as teachers and parents make a sincere effort and pay attention

to the above mentioned points,

We can help our children to learn, to understand and speak English at

an early age.
