Learning Should Excite Kids But Not Burden Them
BY ADMIN PUBLISHED August 27, 2022, UPDATED January 13, 2023
Remember your school years? All those great moments of frolic with friends and memories of our favourite class teachers do come to mind once in a while. Well, in hindsight, it all seems so wonderful and nostalgic, but being a school-going kid is not easy. Especially nowadays, in a world where competition to be the best is ever increasing.
Kids may feel overwhelmed by it all, which is not a good thing. You see, learning should excite, not burden your kid. And, when we say learning, we are talking about the holistic growth of your child; be it classroom learning, sports or extracurricular activities, everything comes under its ambit.
The best buildings, books, and sports equipment won’t be able to make a kid excited about learning if they are not offered the right guidance. That’s why, at DPSG Faridabad, we make use of globally accepted teaching and coaching norms to make learning fun for our wards. Here’s how we do it.
By giving students a sense of responsibility
While guidance from the teachers is essential, it is equally important for the kids to have a sense of ownership for the tasks. At DPSG Faridabad, we motivate the students through interactive classroom learnings that allow them to test their aptitude in problem-solving. Interactive learning helps students in approaching a problem from multiple angles, hence creating a sense of individual contribution and ownership in them
With clearly defined instructions and objectives
Clear instructions are the base of effective formal education. It doesn’t serve well to be vague when teaching a young mind, and more importantly, a class full of young minds. Also, when students have goals to work towards, they are more likely to put in the extra effort. With years of teaching experience under their belt, our faculty knows how to keep the kids excited about learning new things.
By offering a threat-free learning environment
In student life, it is important to learn about the positive impact and negative consequences of one’s actions. But it is also a proven fact that positive reinforcements are more effective in motivating students than punitive measures. DPSG Faridabad is a CBSE school, and here we are, firm believers, in creating a threat-free learning environment for our wards. Teachers and sports instructors encourage the kids by reaffirming belief in their abilities and creating an overall supportive learning environment.
By encouraging positive competition
Having a competitive spirit, or not, is what defines an individual. At DPSG schools, students are inspired by fostering positive competition amongst each other and classroom sections, or the houses. Special care is taken that kids at schoolwork with a friendly spirit of competition without harbouring negativity.
By inspiring teamwork and social interactions
Kids come in all shapes and sizes and attitudes. Some of them will jump on an opportunity to work with others, while others, not so much. Our expert faculty has the experience and the know-how of helping students in building team spirit and social camaraderie. By creating an environment that inspires teamwork, where every member is given equal importance, we make sure that kids always look forward to team activities and learning.
By giving praise where it’s due
Good work needs to be praised, that is the cardinal rule of being a good teacher. At DPSG schools, that is the rule we follow. We make sure that our students earn recognition and praise for their hard work. Which, in turn, keeps them motivated and excited to learn new stuff, instead of thinking of learning as a burden.
By harnessing individual interests
As stated above, learning at DPSG schools is all about the holistic development of your child. We do that by leveraging student interests that are not related to classroom or field activities. Our faculty often make use of the individual interests of our students to make things interesting and more relatable for students.
By helping with student anxiety
Some students need special attention to deal with performance anxiety. The counselling and teaching staff at DPSG Faridabad are ever helpful and supportive in inducing self-confidence in our wards. We ensure that a child is not overwhelmed by the academic expectations and provide individual assistance with topics and subjects of concern.
By making learning fun
While not all classwork is game or a good time, we make sure that there are moments in between that our students love and enjoy. DPSG Faridabad makes learning fun through engaging classroom activities, storytelling, and motivational experiences, making the school a place where kids can have fun as they learn.
