Gr4 6th Nov,2017 “Parent Chaperone” support.
Dear Parents,
Greetings!
To support our ongoing Unit on “Risks and challenges’, we would like our students to acquire good communication and research skills. To accomplish the same we want them to visit and interview any Individual or Organisation that is working for Child Welfare i.e against Child labor, against Illiteracy,or supporting those with special needs.
It would be of great help for all of us if, with your help, we could put up a list of such people or organisations working in different areas/communities/localities of Surat so that the students have access to different case studies. If you know or could find out a few names please fill the google form below with their names and contact numbers. Just make sure that these individuals or organisations are approachable and should entertain inquiries from our students.
Also as a stakeholder in the school community we would appreciate your participation for their visit to NGO. We want parent participants who volunteers to accompany minimum 6-7 students to the allotted NGO.
As it will be a weekend task in the next cycle, it will be highly appreciated if you revert by Wednesday,8th November, enabling us to plan better!
Attached below is the link for the google form to be filled by you.
Important..
A humble request to pass the message on social media ( wats up) you are active on and support deep inquiry by Students and make an authentic learning experience.
