| SOCIO-EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT |
|
| Socio-emotional development
is the most important development. Pre school is the first experince of the outside world. It is a very delicate
and sensitive stage for the child and the parents. The child has to move out for the first time from his mother's
world. The school provides lively, welcoming, congenial and happy atmosphere through friendly, smiling, soft-spoken
and motherly teachers. If a child is well-adjusted and happy and exposed to the stimuli learning will automatically
take place. The activities done are fun filled, lively and enjoyable. The child learn to wish, interact with other
children and adults, share, help, take care of his belongings, good manners and respect others. |
|
| All the activities are planned in
advance keeping in mind aims and objectives. We can not compartmentalise various developments. Through one activity
more than one development takes place. e.g. An activity like Playing on Jungle gym, the main objective is Large muscle
development but it also helps in socio-emotional development - sharing, taking his turn, helping others, having fun,
overcoming fear of height, self-confidence; Language development- listening, interacting, following instructions and
Cognitive development- spacial concept like high/low, big/small and observation. |

| The school has a very unique way of
developing the quality of independence. The child enjoys the comfort with the softspoken and motherly teachers. The
children are also kept busy with attractive activities. The beginning days are made enjoyable by giving the child
colourful toys , puzzles and games. The first few days children take with them balloons , puppets, lollipops etc. |
