Like the previous year, GIS conducted a workshop for grades 4 – 7 students on Poetry Writing and Poet-Laureates.  This year, SLATE club opened up the opportunity for interested students from grades 4 – 7 and has enrolled around 95 students. Thus, the workshop will be carried out thrice throughout the year in which students will be given opportunity to write various types of poems such as free-verse poems and imagery poems and also talk about famous poet-laureates such as William Shakespeare, Thomas Hardy and William Wordsworth.
We have successfully completed the workshop for the first batch of students on 8th February to 12th February. The workshop was conducted by invitee teachers who conducted the workshop with various interesting activities. Throughout this workshop, students were enthusiastic to get such an opportunity and hope to see more enthusiastic learners in the next 2 batch of students. More details about the next workshops will be briefed on later.
Unlike last year, we hope to give away participation certificates at the end of the year. Students who complete the workshop will receive their work portfolio at the end of the workshop.
