Every child learns; some just learn differently…..

Children have a tremendous capacity to learn, absorb and internalize information, hence each child learns. The difference being that some learn differently.
Taking a cue from these lines, the Supportive instruction unit planned a week of learning difficulties in which difficulties like dyslexia dyscalculia and dysgraphia were explained by our students during the assembly.
Principal Capt. Rohit Sen. Bajaj spoke about the importance of Supportive instruction unit and how well it is catering to the different learning needs of the students which is helping the school in bridging the gap between learning capacity of different children.
  Dr. Shakila Naidu school psychologist shared her thoughts about empathy. Ms.  Ragini a guest speaker and a parent   spoke about how to overcome learning difficulties in children.
 Students from grade IV enacted a role play based on peer pressure and bullying. Awareness material was on display in the PYP workroom which helped teachers and students to gain more insights on learning difficulties.
 An orientation session was organized for teachers   of Grade 1 to IV on how to identify and refer children for remediation, strategies for teaching, tips on dyscalculia, and some cooling interventions which can be used in classrooms were discussed.
