MEASURES TO HELP WEAK STUDENTS

The Primary Section both the students and teachers help weak students. The students do it through peer teaching under the guidance of their teachers.

The students who need extra help are identified and formed into groups according to the subjects in which they need help. The teachers take an hour each day (Monday, Tues., Thru., Fri.) of Special Attention wherein they attend to these students. If students need help in more than one subject, they are taken care of on a rotation basis.

PEACE EDUCATION

PEACE EDUCATION This is a project taken up by Dr. Tim Rost. Right now he is testing out the peace education material he has written for classes I-III. The teachers assisting in this task are Elsie Sharma, Sunita Devi, Raj Kumari and Cynthia Fernandes. Two activities of the children in Peace Education are:

Peace House: The children draw a house. It is then displayed. It has the Foundation of Love, the Walls of Unity and the tiles of spiritual Virtues in the Roof of Peace.

Masks: The children learn about emotions, and that understanding emotions and what the other person feels is a part of peace making. Only then can you identify with the feelings of that person. The children make masks of the various emotions and display (or show?) them during the morning assembly.
