We started the new session 2021-22 with awesome spirit wear and exci ng lessons in the 
classrooms. Vexingly, COVID had again started sprawling over the states, schools again 
had to be closed looking at the safety of our students, teachers and staff members.

This called for the shi  from offline to online. The hiccups this year were very few as we 
extol  the  crea on  of  'Edule cs'.  The  all-new  methods  espoused  this  year,  for  remote 
learning will definitely mi gate the psychological effects of COVID. The school has cra ed 
online ac vi es to contemplate the epistemic ideas of each individual.  

It was quite a different start to the school last year, with various learning formats, new 
technologies and new procedures for everyone.  I am truly amazed at how well everyone 
adapted to the situa ons. It is also encouraging to see our students ac vely par cipa ng 
and inducing a posi ve impact in the online classes. A year's experience has made us well 
versed and equipped with both the methods of impar ng educa on, offline and online. 

With the sudden augmenta on of COVID we posthaste to online educa on so that there is 
uninterrupted learning. Learning is a con nuous process and it should not be paused. The 
excitement and the energy during the online classes had been palpable every day and this 
reinforces our commitment to the smooth transi on of educa on. 

I can speak for all of our staff that we really miss seeing the kids every day!  There is no 
comparison for the feeling of joy that we get having kids learning in our classrooms and 
buildings.  I am hopeful that we can bridge this gap using remote instruc on and our kids 
can return to normalcy as soon as possible.  Our en re team is doing everything possible 
to ensure our kids con nue to learn at home and your efforts as parents/guardians are 
truly amazing during this  me.  

Our school has the most amazing students, in this challenging facet I suggest them to use 
this  me to learn, reflect, create, prac ce, appreciate those around you and be grateful for 
all of the blessings we share.

Warmer weather and be er  me will soon be there! With this posi ve approach I present 
to you the newsle er for the month of April 2021.

Dear Parents, Family and Associates of OMK

The main purpose of education is to have a sound character. It goes without saying that values go 
a long way in building a person's character. The most formative years in a child's life is the school 
years where moral values can be endued. Where corruption, violence, unrest have become so 
prevalent in our society, schools have an added responsibility to ensure that value education as a 
subject is taken seriously as a part of the curriculum. We understand that we just not need to 
produce educated but also responsible citizens with insightful minds who believe in giving back to 
the society. Our teachers that values are interwoven in all her lessons that they take up with their 
students.

INVIGORATING VALUES AMONG STUDENTS

Little by little becomes a lot.

Little by little becomes a lot.

Learning, thought, creativity, and intelligence don't just come 
from the brain alone, but from the entire body. Combination of 
both mind and body increase memory, order, and sequencing 
skills. Music and dance bring positive impact on a child's 
overall development. The lockdown has impeded the holistic 
development of our students. It was important for us to revive 
creativity, communication, critical thinking, and collaboration 
among the students through dance, music, yoga and games.

We want to create a wholesome learning experience for children, that will bring out their talents, 
hone their skills, and help them achieve important developmental milestones. We use different 
media and materials, to give children a wide variety of ways to express their artistic side while 
learning critical skills. To develop ne motor skills among the students we introduced art and craft 
and cooking without re in the online sessions.

The speech and language of a child needs to be developed at the early age to enhance literacy 
skills. Stories help students comprehend the text. It helps the student to map sounds onto 
spellings, thus enabling them to decode words. It also sparks a child's imagination and 
stimulate curiosity. We understand that it is essential to develop our child's brain, ability to 
focus, concentration, social skills and communication skills henceforth, the school introduced 
phonics and storytelling classes.

BEYOND THE BOOKS

There is more to learn than just the textbooks for the overall development of a child. One needs 
to go beyond academics to excel in other areas. A kid's achievement depends on how much he 
or she is getting from the surroundings. General Knowledge opens different avenues for one's 
seeking. It develops students' social, sensitive, reasoning, and analytical thinking skills. It 
forms an identity right from a tender stage, which only helps them build their perspective 
about the world.

Education is the soul of the society as it passes from one generation to another. With the commencing 
of the new session the school welcomed all the new family members to the organization. We also 
introduced our portal EDULETICS and TASKIFY so that our new members can have a smooth mode 
of communication.

Activity based learning engages all students in the understanding process within the classroom 
and immerses them within the material. Contrary to normal teaching styles where information 
is given to students and they decide how to process it and take the learning aspect into their 
own hands. It provides the students with learning content that is easily understandable to all 
types of learners. We at Open Minds – A Birla School has perfectly brought in the activity-
based learning in our online classes.
