Nursery class
A Nursery class is after a baby class where we have kids from 4-5 years .
They know how to copy and are learning how to read two letters like "in, at, on, is, if".Three letters word as "ten, hen" just like that.
With mathematics which is called number work they can add 1+1 and draw balls and get the answer by the help of the volunteer and teacher.They do hard addition like 5+5 and can get the answer.
They also learn Environmental which is to do with fruits kinds of fruits they eat and coloring so that to remember. They also draw pictures as hen, cat, flower as well as read them.
We have lessons like reading where words are written for them to copy in the book to be able to read again before the teachers.
Nursery class lessons are English,Reading,Math which is number work,Environmental,Creative.Once volunteers chose Nursery class you can teach any of the lessons.Our program is charity in education through teaching and helping out the kids work to be perfect in what the kids do and write.At Nursery level the kids can make a lot of mistake because they dont know how to copy well or read.The work of the volunteer is to assist in such areas.
Children who are in Nursery are those that have been enrolled to access free education at the school due to the cost sharing policy with the government that the kids need to cost share to be enrolled in a government school.I t becomes very hard for the kids whose guardian or parent has no job or income to be send to school.
Our program enables the poor, vulnerable, rejected to be received in school for lessons without any condition.They come with brains ready to be taught. A volunteer is oriented with one of us once at the project either to teach or help a child to do mathematics, or read or copy on the board work that has been taught and help in the marking books for the kids.The volunteer also will help in playing with the kid and serving lunch during the lunch break.
The area we operate in is a settlement area which was given to the poor who did not have a plot of land to settle.It is not dangerous for a volunteer but a volunteer need not just walk around without any help because it is safe.A volunteer will need guidance and be helped in areas to walk in so as to continue keeping safe.
