Tips for School Students, Teachers & Families

Students

Quality Family time

Spend time by playing with family on board games, antakshari, other indoor games, music and crafts.

Learning can be fun

Creative thinking can go beyond the academic learning by participating in household chores, supporting younger siblings and parents.

Interactive Online classes

Support teachers in participating actively in online classes which will go a long way for enriching the utility and productivity of these times.

Empower Adolescent Peer Support

Come forth to be a peer educator/mentor by initiating and innovating online based peer support programs on life skills enrichments.

Teachers

Learning with Life Skills

Encourage children to read and exchange things they have read or learnt beyond textbooks.

Engage in Playful Activities

Drawing/painting or story telling can help them express their feelings in a safe and supportive environment which can release emotions like fear or anxiety.

Provide Support and Attention

Seek guidance from the school principal/counsellor or special educators about a child with special needs and contact the local medical authority, if needed.

Promote Resilience

Motivate children to write about new skills and positive stories they have developed being at home and how they are spending their time with family.

Parents

Active Listening

Actively listen to children’s difficulties, clarifying doubts, reassuring them, generating hope and providing emotional support in resolving issues.

Be a Role Model

Children are very perceptive and closely observe your actions. Parents can support by managing their own stressors so that they can be role models.

Healthy Lifestyles

Set time for sleep, waking up, healthy balanced diet, learning and playtime as structured schedule to stay focused and motivated.

Provide Authentic Information

Discuss facts about covid-19 and share facts which will help in reducing fear and distinguishing them from myths & rumours.
