This week we revised the swar - अ, आ, इ, ई, उ, ऊ, ऋ, ए, ऐ, ओ, औ, अं, और अः, along with all vyanjan up to झ. We also introduced new letters from ट to न. The kids enjoyed a small activity to help them understand Hindi words better.

Homework:

Students must practice all swar and vyanjan up to न.

Please help your child find two words each for the letters ट to न, or encourage them to use any words from these letters in sentences.

Some students have been missing their homework. Please ensure they complete two rows in their workbook for each letter up to न.

Thank you for your support! Let’s keep the learning consistent and fun. 😊

Today in class, we worked on 8 new letters, क to झा  as well as reviewing 4 colors in Hindi (orange:naarangi, Pink: gulabi, Black: kaala, white: safed). Please keep in mind that everyone should keep reviewing the matras, letters, and colors even out of class. 

The homework for this week is to write 2 words each with the letters above (but also, please try to review previous letters)

Kids were also asked to learn how to introduce themselves in Hindi. They will be asked to do so in next class. Thanks !

We took a test on the Hindi Swara (अ, आ, इ, ई, उ, ऊ, ऋ, ए, ऐ, ओ, औ, अं, अः), and the kids did a wonderful job remembering and recognizing each swara along with their sounds. They also joined in small discussions and a fun game to help them learn and remember Hindi colors.

We have now started learning the Hindi Vyanjan (क, ख, ग, घ, ङ). Students are required to practice all the swara and vyanjan at home and try to find at least two words for each vyanjan.
