Language Disorders from Infancy through Adolescence Listening Speaking Reading Writing and Communicating 4e
Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant (FLTA) Midyear Conference and Festival. December 12, 2019, Marriott Marquis, Washington, DC
Reading is very necessary for learning a language well. Only a good reader knows the finer nuances of speaking a language like an art. At Udgam we always recommend fostering reading habit as early as possible, beginning right from Preschool. To further emphasise the need for regular reading, our school celebrated Reading Week from December 1 to 6 in English, Hindi, Sanskrit and Gujarati.
The Primary Section made the most of the week by inculcating activities like answering riddles, extempore speaking from chits drawn, sequencing jumbled stories, rapid fire, spinning the yard, poster making, tongue twisters, writing and reading aloud simple poems, reading newspaper articles and discussing, character description from folk tales and noun games.
In Middle Section activities that were pursued to enhance reading were news reading like a reporter after dividing new into categories like International, National, State, Sports and Weather. Along with sessions of story, book reading penned by famous authors was undertaken. In Hindi, children were encouraged to chant dohas by Kabirdas along with video screening. In Gujarati class, children had to draw lots to read books. Sanskrit reading was made interesting by giving them topics from grammar. The groups took down names and presented their topics on charts, quiz, dumb charade, housie, flash cards and so on.
The senior school children presented book reviews of novels read by them. The students shared with their classmates the highlights of the novels read, the various characters depicted, the ratings the book deserved,etc.While some students used PPTs to present their reviews, others depended on their verbal skills to interact with the others and convey the content of the book read.
In the main action area of reading, the School Library, the students were shown videos of famous stories with morals. There were activities like story writing, paragraph writing, draw-a-picture, writing about your favourite character and Read-a-thon.
A Book Fair was a Grand Finale to the Reading Week. It was attended in large numbers by students, parents and teachers. The children went around excitedly from shelf to shelf and selected books to buy and take home. We hope the spirit of reading will continue in the times to come...
Aside from the three computer labs, there is also a language lab in the W.K. Kellogg Library, where non-Spanish speakers can go to learn Spanish with Rosetta Stone. Students who want to learn another language other than Spanish may find the lab useful as well.

Unicode represents the Tower ob Babel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel In computing, Unicode is an industry standard allowing computers to consistently represent and manipulate text expressed in most of the world's writing systems. Developed in tandem with the Universal Character Set standard and published in book form as The Unicode Standard, Unicode consists of a repertoire of more than 100,000 characters, a set of code charts for visual reference, an encoding methodology and set of standard character encodings, an enumeration of character properties such as upper and lower case, a set of reference data computer files, and a number of related items, such as character properties, rules for normalization, decomposition, collation, rendering and bidirectional display order (for the correct display of text containing both right-to-left scripts, such as Arabic or Hebrew, and left-to-right scripts). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UniCode

The Modern Foreign Languages Department day trip for Year 7 pupils to the historic town of Boulogne in the Nord-Pas-de Calais region of France. Similar visits have been undertaken in the past by the Modern Foreign Languages Department and every year has proved to be a great experience. This is an incredibly beneficial day out, with pupils practising and building on the French they have learnt this year.
Pupils commented very positively about the trip, they enjoyed all the activities throughout the day. They were encouraged to work independently and also in groups to apply their language skills to different situations and contexts (café experience, treasure hunt, shopping) they also learned a lot about French culture and history. The visit of a sweet factory was particularly fun and enriching! Here are some feedbacks from pupils:
“I thought it was full of great fun activities that I had not done before like the sweet factory visit, the treasure hunt or the café experience. Overall it was one of my favourite school trip I’ve ever been on. It was great!” Jack Halkyard

“I think it was a very good trip with a lot of interesting things to learn!” Jaimin Bhatt
