PREFACE

Dear Parents and Students,

Summer vacation is around the corner, bringing with itself a much-needed respite from
hectic school days. We hope that you will thoroughly enjoy the vacations and make the most
of this summer. While it is indeed important that you relax and refresh yourselves, it is also
important that you exercise your minds.

Keeping this in mind, we have designed various exciting activities to keep the students
engaged and active during the summer vacation. These fun projects/ assignments would
enhance learning skills, help understand concepts better, and make for a great crash course
aimed at improving academic output.

These activities will not only help you to revise what was taught, but will also enrich
your knowledge. These projects will be assessed as Subject Enrichment Activity, Portfolio or
Art Integrated activity.

We encourage parents to motivate and support the students to ensure the given work
is completed in time, to the best of their ability. Your support and encouragement both have a
huge impact on your child’s learning ability.

The Holiday Home Work is to be done neatly with relevance to the questions asked and
to be submitted to the subject teachers within a week of reopening of the school i.e. 12th June
to 20th June’24. Homework submitted late will invite negative marking. It is important
that deadlines are met.

Wishing you a fun filled, safe summer vacation.

I. Poster Making
A poster is a large sheet that is placed either in a public space to promote something
or to give a message on relevant social/other issues. Typically, posters include both
textual and graphic elements, although a poster may be either wholly graphical or
wholly text. Posters are designed to be both eye-catching and informative.
Design an attractive poster (A4 sheet) on ANY ONE of the following:
• DPS Birthday to be celebrated in your school in July
• Save the common sparrow
II. Newspaper Activity:
Cut out and paste (minimum 2 each) clippings of classified advertisement from the
newspaper under the heading:
* Situation Wanted

III. Newspaper Activity
Reading the newspaper is a habit that will help you throughout your life, because of
the many benefits it has. This vacation, use the newspaper to enhance your
vocabulary. As you read the newspaper, pick out a new word that you come across.
Cut out the portion of the paper that contains the word. Paste it in your copy and
highlight that word. Look up the meaning and usage and frame 2 sentences using
the new word you have learnt. You have just made friends with a new word!! Do
this activity till you have at least 15 new words in your repertoire.
IV. The lesson ‘The Portrait of a Lady’ suggests a growing distance between the
younger and older generation. Write a speech in about 150 words to be delivered in
the morning assembly of the school on the above topic, on the basis of your reading
of the text.
V. Why do you think people undertake such adventurous expeditions in spite of the
risks involved? Evaluate, in the context of your understanding of ‘We ‘re Not Afraid
to Die….if We Can All Be Together’.

to the respective teachers.
