CLASS-6

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

"The holiday season is a perfect time to reflect on blessings and take out
ways to make life better for those around us".

Summer Vacation is the most awaited time for parents and kids alike.
However, this time it is different due to COVID-19 as youngsters are already
not going to school. Thus, our responsibilities get double to keep our children
active.
We, at Milestone, understand it very well that presently our proximity to
resources is limited. Considering this, we have tried to keep "Summer Holidays
Homework" simple and informative but interesting as well, so that our students
love to spend their time in completing it.
The objective of holidays homework is to enable our students work
independently and also to improve their academic skills.
Here are few suggestions for parents:-
◗ Make sure that you are spending quality time with your wards amidst this
tensed environment. It is very important to keep their anxiety at minimum.
◗ Giving them small responsibilities in household chores will aid them to be
independent.
◗ Teach them the importance of moral values in their life.
◗ Keeping in view the prevailing situation indulge yourself in various indoor
games with them.
We cannot overlook the fact that the Summer Holidays are the time to
relax and revive. While the entire world is struggling hard in recovering from
the pandemic COVID-19, we together will have to make it sure that our youth
is least effected from the panic around.
So, make these holidays memorable for them by providing a nurtured
and stimulated environment at home, which is full of fun, excitement, and
learning.
Please note:
◗ Use resources (rough notebook, ruled/coloured sheets) only, which are
available at home to complete all Holidays Homework including craftwork.
◗ Prepare a systematic timetable and follow it religiously from the very first
day.
◗ Allow them to complete homework on their own under your guidance.
Holidays Home work is an interesting way to utilise our Milestonians time in
the most fruitful way. Wish you all a fun filled, safe and healthy holidays
ahead!
