READING CLUB PROGRAM:

BDS Outreach Team is conducting Reading Club at MC Halli School, Malur, from

July 21 2018 for 4 and 5 standard students. Reading Club is geared towards
th
th
st
inculcating reading habits for young children (age group of 7-8 years) with prima-
ry focus on vocabulary, pronunciation, and to enable children to be comfortable

with the English language. With the help of interactive activities, games and story-
telling, the whole program is designed to make reading more interesting for kids.

In this season, our beloved president wrote children’s books and the books were

printed in-house. Our president also created several game based activities for

children, which had a great response from them and we observed that it enhanced

their retention, while enriching their learnability. This season of reading club will

continue until 28 Sep 2018. It was a great source of inspiration and learning for
th
the team, with our president directly involved with creating the content.

BDS has also made the reading books available for purchase. If you are interested

in buying these books in return for a small donation of Rs 100/-, please contact the
Program Anchor Mrs Priya K Rangan at 805051146 /
