G.H.G. ACADEMY JAGRAON

Akaar (Grade 3-5)

Our Akaar program for grades 3 to 5 is a balance between accelerated learning and exhilaration with a supportive environment for either enrichment or acceleration. Academic assimilation is executed through research, critical analysis, creative and strategic thinking, along with persuasive writing and argumentation. Community based social projects are taken up by children to sensitize them towards their ecosystem. There is also a rich set of co-curricular activities like debates, hands-on science projects, basketball, art, craft, music, dance and theatre that inculcate critical life skills. It provides a strong foundation to prepare for the rigors of high school.

Everyday @ Akaar

The day at Akaar starts with a prayer to ensure a spiritual connect followed by “Umang”. In order to achieve maximum student engagement, we plan our activities in a manner that they promote inquisitiveness amongst students. “Umang” activities are planned day wise so that we make the students learn something new everyday. From challenging sheets to social skills and with exciting inter house competitions, children look forward to UMANG everyday!

All our subject teachings focus on experiential learning, which is the undercurrent in our strategic approach to teaching and pedagogy. LEAD- our language program and Maker’s lab that are an integral part of this strategic approach to teaching wherein the students not only learn but live the subjects but also inculcate in their daily progression. To strengthen the values of emotional wellbeing and compassion , we follow a concept of “gratitude jar” every day, wherein the students can thank anyone for any reason that they feel important
