Kite making activity at UWCEC!

Paper craft encourages children to draw, tear, stick and paint and do several other exercises that promote dexterity. These activities develop the preschoolers’ fine motor skills and strengthen their ability to concentrate for longer periods.

So at UWCEC we taught children how to tear and paste two different colors of crepe paper on their worksheets to form a colorful kite. This helped to enhance their hand-eye co-ordination and also to promote creativity.

Working with such materials teaches them about colours, shapes and textures, how things work and how they fit together. Craft encourages children to play and experiment in a fun and relaxed environment. Every child enjoyed this activity and learned new techniques from it while also creating different products from it.

Let’s learn patterns at UWCEC!

Patterns are a very important part of logical mathematics, due to which children are able to deduce and think systematically. Learning patterns provides an opportunity to the children to observe and use logic based on that observation.

Children should be trained for using patterns in daily life so that they can apply this logic in all aspects. These are the building blocks of algebra.

In UWCEC, the Sr.Kg. children are learning how to use patterns – like AB, AAB, ABB, ABC – in a very simple and interesting manner. They were provided with worksheets for practice and patterns of colours, shapes and sizes were also taught.

Now the children of Sr.Kg can recognise and complete 2 part and 3 part patterns.
