We are here..keep pace

The experience at the Aditya Birla World Academy [ABWA] introduces me to the Gen Nex kids on the block. They are THERE, waiting for you to present them with challenges which they face head on :)
One might wonder what might be the challenges for 6, 7 & 8 year olds! Well, its writing poetry, making stories using their sensibilities and having apt endings to what they write and picking an author they like and reading all by themselves.
Not that self reading is tough, but the accompanied activities is what makes the children special, the associated relevant questions is what makes them the GenNex!
I recall a 7 year year old telling me that rhyming pattern is so Jr Kg and that he would love to do something done at university level. Thats when we made our own story titled Unconscious Dreams.

The latest challenges for parents, teachers, facilitators etc today is, to gear up to the speed of our little ones and pace ourselves to walk their walk.
