Dear Parents,
Congratulations on the beginning of this new year. I see a lot of enthusiasm around and it is visible in the children.
There is so much we want to give our kids, and see them climb up the ladder of success. The school education system is not always kind to the kids, both because of the curriculum load as well as the inflexible nature of the school system. As a result most have lost the charm of being children and the fun and the joy of being kids. Schooling that should have been the joy of their life is often turned into a nightmare that should not have been : school, bus trip, tuitions, homework, etc, and all this is not even ending up with the kids enjoying learning.
Vasuki is a team comprising alumni of IIM-Ahmedabad and IIT-Delhi. They are concerned parents, academicians and communicators. They have designed a program where Football (Soccer) and Maths and Science work together to improve children’s concentration, co-ordination, planning, self-control leading to improved motivation levels, self-confidence and learning! Football is being used by professionals to teach kids winning strategies to arrive at a goal, in a teamwork. At the same time the kids learn control, concept of distance and speed and perhaps best of all, understand how to understand each other and think out of the box.
The Maths experts “Jodho Gyan” are the best Maths teaching professionals around for a long time who have taken the sting out of Maths and made it lots of fun. Science by enquiry and reading and listening skills make this program quite an awesome offering. The program known as HIGH JIVE is confident that kids will learn: (a) The Art of Communication, (b) Learning to learn, (c) Building Confidence in a wonderfully built web of activities like football, Maths activities, Science through enquiry and Reading and Listening skills.
