World math High

This is a truly unique world event and a fantastic way to promote numeracy within schools. Past results show that students will make significant improvements in their mental arithmetic skills and have fun in the process.

We are delighted that New Generation International  Schools  will be part of a global celebration of numbers as children from across the world unite in their quest to set a new world record in answering mental arithmetic questions!

 

The World Maths Day challenge involves students from all over the world playing against each other in real-time battles of mental arithmetic using the World Maths Day game engine.

 

In 2009 two million students from schools in 204 countries took part.

Students set a new record, correctly answering 452, 681,681 questions. Can we- New Generation International Schools - set a new record this year?

 

The student answering the highest number of questions correctly in each age group (5-8, 9-13, 14-18) will be the World Champion and receive a Minted Gold Medal.

Every student who correctly answers 4,000 questions or more will receive a digital certificate Gold Award. All students who participate will receive a digital certificate for participation.

Reading Buddies high

Reading Buddies is a one-on-one or small group literacy program for the students who are having learning to read and write. This program promotes reading and writing skills of all the students involved.

The Elementary and the KG Divisions have launched the award-winning program the Reading Buddies. This cross-age reading program is an innovative way for kindergarten and upper-level elementary students to:

·         Improve  reading fluency and writing ability

·         Revisit phonetic skills

·         Develop self-esteem and social skills

·         Enhance self confidence and genuine desire for lifelong learning

·         Provide access to the world of books and knowledge

·         Enhance their love of books and reading.

Grade 4 and 5 students spend a portion of their class time each week preparing for their visits to the KG classes. They select books from the school library of over 100 children's books and prepare strategies to engage their reading buddies, while and after reading each book.

It is rewarding to watch these students connect and build a literacy friendship. At NG, the focus of our curriculum is literacy; hence, our Reading Buddy Program presents opportunities for students to discover the joy of reading.

New Generation International School recognizes the importance of each student developing the sense of pride in their accomplishments, while educators are satisfied with the result of excellence.
