Discover Urjaa has started an ‘English speaking class’ for the kids sponsored through Project CARES. We plan to have 25 classes spread over 6 months (every Sunday).
Our first class was held on Sunday / 18th July’10. The rainy day did not dispel the enthusiasm of the 41 kids who attended the class. It started with a session conducted by Vignesh on basic greetings. The kids were guided on how to introduce themselves, followed by a small session on expressing feelings, later they were divided into groups – each group chose a topic & wrote sentences which they then presented to the class.
At present the class has been introduced for kids from Std 6 onwards. While the kids are being sponsored by us, they face a disadvantage of English language skills. We hope to give them a space to grow & become better. The class is designed to -
- help the kids become confident & be able to speak English more fluently
- aid them to communicate more effectively in a relaxed, friendly & encouraging environment
