IMPORTANT FEATURES

  • Language development will be of utmost importance. For that, all the language skills will be nurtured in children i.e. phonetics, Speaking, reading, recitation, comprehension, Vocabulary, thinking, writing, etc.
  • Most of the work will be done in class. The H.W will be comparatively lesser & more meaningful /enriching. It may be something to write, draw or color, read, practice, collect, observe experiment, watch, etc.
  • For better concept building, rather than writing, writing, & just writing, we would like to invest adequate time in meaningful discussions and different kinds of learning activities. Therefore parents should not expect a lot of written work in the notebooks on daily basis. However, the work will be done in many more ways rather than only writing in the notebooks. The useful book exercises will be done.
  • Selective and structured work in notebooks and regular worksheets will be done.
  • Children would be regularly assessed in many thoughtful ways. To be more specific, their performance (conceptual understanding, application of knowledge) would be regularly assessed through daily activities, classroom sessions, discovery-hour sessions, and conceptual/skill-building worksheets (formative assessment).
  •  Writing skills would be emphasized too through consistent reinforcement. Please ensure that your child does the correction by writing the correct formation of the letter 5 times.
  • Parents may participate in the learning process by consolidating the conceptual understanding in the child through regular discussion, storytelling, informal talking, and conceptual revision, sight word reading practice, handwriting practice, and conceptual/miscellaneous activities at home too.
  • Eating fruits is a healthy habit. Therefore the daily fruit break would be from 8:50 a.m. to 9 am...
  • Our Monday morning assemblies are quite resourceful, with aerobics, yoga, meditation, public speaking,

Quiz music and above all, the participation of all the students.

  • The wholesome learning experience at JMIS is dealt with a lot of concern and pedagogical expertise and we would not want any child to miss her/his learning experience even for a single day.
