NEWS IN BRIEF

KENDRIYA VIDYALAYA

SECTOR-VIII, R.K.PURAM

NEWSLETTER( TERM I )

LEARNING NEEDS OF CHILDREN Children learn on their own. In schools and at home we pro-

vide them suitable learning conditions to help their overall

personality development. This era is of technology and new

technologies are evolving day by day. Gone are the days

when mere cramming up answers was thought enough for

learning. Now we need inquisitive minds. To foster this in-

quisitiveness among children, attention should be paid to the

pre learning needs . Teaching and parenting both should be

reappraised. The first step towards this should be knowing

the aptitude and capability of a child. No two children are

alike. Hence we should keep their individual differences in

mind. If one task is good for one child it could be irrelevant

for the other. Children must be given small goals or targets

and let them attain them on their own. We shouldn’t force

our expectations on the child. Encourage every small

achievement of theirs. Motivate them to do better next time.

As a parent and as a teacher we should not be too protective.

A child will eventually learn from his/her mistakes . We just

need to guide them in the right direction and enlighten their

path with proper mentoring and nurture them with care.

Our commitment at Kendriya Vidyalaya,

R.K.Puram is to provide a challenging

educational programme for all students

within a safe, nurturing environment

which will enable students to function as

productive, ethical and responsible global

citizens. It is the contribution of our stu-

dents to our school and community that

makes Kendriya Vidyalaya Sector-8,

R.K.Puram an exceptional learning com-

munity. We encourage the students to

explore their potential and become re-

sponsible members of a global society.
