How to teach kids in Covid time? Schools get norms

NEW DELHI: Classes in Delhi government schools will begin on June 28.
Before actual lessons, to be in semi-online mode, there will be two weeks in which students will be orientated to the new academic session.
The first week will be given to re-establishing connections with the students and the following week to providing them with emotional support and bridging the learning gaps.
This year onward, there will also be a monthly learning assessment cycle to align teaching-learning with assessment, the data from which will form part of the internal/external assessment for the 2021-22 academic year.

He also said, “Because of the pandemic, there has been massive learning loss.
We will need not only to reduce this learning loss this year, but also provide deep emotional support to our children.
They need to be mentally prepared for any teaching-learning activities.”
In the first week after opening, teachers and school heads will establish contact with students and parents, update contact details, make WhatsApp groups and categorise students according to their phone availability, such as smartphones, feature phones or no phone.
In the second week beginning July 5, teachers will talk to students about their well-being, understand their circumstances at home and find out if they need support of any kind.
Light activities like reading, writing and numeracy in all classes up to Class VIII will be undertaken too.
The focus in classes IX to XII would be to recap and revise.
From August onwards, class-specific activities will aim at bridging the learning loss.
While there will be generic and subject-wise worksheets for nursery to Class VIII, classes IX to XII will have online classes with subject teachers and students who have difficulty accessing digital devices will be provided short notes capturing the main points of the online lessons.
These notes can be collected by the parents from the school on a weekly basis.
Classes for XI will start after the declaration of Class X board results.
Sisodia also said, “This year, we will have close alignment between teaching-learning strategies and the assessment to reduce the dependency on one-time exams for annual results.”
