CROSSWORD PUZZLE-GAMES: THE ESSENCE OF LIFE

CROSSWORD PUZZLE-GAMES: THE ESSENCE OF LIFE

Crossword solving involves several useful skills including vocabulary, reasoning, spelling and word attack skills. The important skills required for completing these puzzles include making inferences, evaluating choices and drawing conclusions. Correctly deciphering a crossword also requires exact spelling, for which the students may need excellent dictionary skills.




To make the students familiar with the sports and sports personalities of Scotland, France, India and Sri Lanka an activity of solving crossword puzzles was organized in the school for the students of grades 1 to 5; and grades 6 to 8. The students participated in this activity in a very enthusiastic manner. The aim of the activity was to make the students realize the importance of games and how they bring mankind together. The event turned out to be a great success.

TABLE MANNERS The true meaning of etiquette is always to show respect and kindness to everyone around you. When the child is young enough to sit at the dinner table (even in a high chair), you can start teaching dining etiquettes.
