Tamil Jr Sept 14 Class



Hari om  everyone,

I am very excited to teach Tamil Jr. this year at Balavihar. Our first day Tamil class went on fine. The first class is used to understand the kid’s knowledge level in Tamil. Kids tried to use as much Tamil words as possible to introduce themselves. Kids are introduced to vowels. They traced their name in Tamil and the first alphabet. Some kids are very comfortable writing them on their own and identifying the vowels. Few younger kids have little difficulty. That is perfectly fine. I will be working with them. We end the class with a story time. We hear the story and tried to comprehend them.

The real learning starts from next week. We have kids with various levels of knowledge and ages.  From next class, I will split the class into two groups based on age. I will be bringing in two types of worksheets so that kids can learn in their comfort level. 
Also each child has to bring a notebook, pencil, color pencil(or crayon. no markers please) for the class.

Thank you,

Sowmya
