Update on English teaching

We have prepared course-I material with the main focus on Phonics. This has been ruled out in 3rd to 7th standard in Turahalli school and 3rd to 5th standard in Yadalam school. This special coaching class runs everyday for all the above mentioned classes from 2.30PM to 3.30PM. These classes taken by teachers of respective school and overseen by Ms. Vasantha and Ms. Revathi from CBH. Also they pick students who needs more attention and train them.

We have mixed results after three months of teaching. We see good results in Turahalli school where kids are able to identify English letters and form word. Though small, it's good beginning and children are getting comfortable with English. But in Yadalam school, we see improvements are not satisfactory. We have analysed reasons for this failure and putting corrective action in place.

Meantime, we have received booklets for Course-II, which will have advanced phonics covering words, silent letters and basic phonic rules.
