Early Intervention and V-Excel Remedial Centre

From the staff of Early Intervention and V-Excel Remedial Centre

Greetings from Early Intervention and the Remedial Unit!

• Diwali celebrations

In connection with the Diwali festival this month, the Early Intervention and Remedial Unit did activities with students. We conducted a Diya painting workshop for our children and the same was given as a take away. This activity helped them to enhance their Fine motor skills, Focus, attention and Sitting Tolerance. Children thoroughly enjoyed this activity. The activity was conducted in both Sarada and Kolapakkam Centre.

• Baby steps of Kolapakkam Branch

V-Excel Educational Trust, in association with Super Auto Forge, has opened an early intervention centre at Unamancheri, Kolapakkam highway on Vijayadasami, the 12th of October 2024. The centre caters to children with special needs free of cost.

We have till now completed 8 admissions and have started coming for one on one Therapy, Remedial and Language development Program. We are slowly getting enquires from the nearby areas.

Outreach Program: As part of our empowerment programs, we visited 2 special schools in Coimbatore to provide counselling services to the students and individual sessions for teachers and parents.

The following activities were conducted.

1. A detailed individual observation of the children and on-the-job training was done for the Special Teachers on the topic of Classroom management for students with behavioural concerns.

2. Individual meetings with parents were conducted, Strategies and tips were provided for effective management of the children at home. The above program was organized in Bharathi Special School and Dr. Abdul Kalam Special School from 25th to 27th November 2024. A team of Psychologists, Therapists, and special educators conducted the sessions.

Overall 28 students, 14 parents, and 23 Teachers benefited from this program

3. Counselling sessions for Grade 4 & 5 were conducted by Ms. Sumathi Srinivasan on the Topic “How to be Happy". The details are as follows:

students were given five tips to practice everyday. They drew their palm and wrote each tip in a finger. The students were divided into 5 group. Each group spoke about the value/tip that they had to follow everyday.

All the students took an oath that they would follow the above tips and lead a healthy and happy life.

The English translation is

PLEDGE

I will do all these to lead a happy life

1. Take care of my physical and mental health

2. Respect myself and others

3. Gain knowledge

4. Practice good habits

5. Follow day routines.

Olcott School, where we support with our outreach program conducted an exhibition. Students who are taking Inteventions participated in the exhibition and showcased their skills.

• Stories of change – Dikshit Sai and his therapist Ms. Saranya:

Master Dikshit Sai, aged 5 years, was given consultation in the Early Intervention and V-Excel Remedial Centre on November 5, 2023. The primary concerns with which he was brought in were his Hyper Active, Lack of Understanding, Communication Difficulty. On assessment, it was evident that he required occupational therapy and Language Enhancement to help regulate his hyperactive behavioural and Language concerns. He started taking interventions with us from January 19, 2024.

Dikshit able to connect with people easily with social smile He was adamant and hyperactive and now his behaviour slowly started shifting, as he began getting used to this new environment, and his guide, Saranya ma'am. Engaging in activities alongside her has helped in regulating his behavioural concerns. There has been significant improvements in his sitting and waiting tolerances. He is also able to complete given tasks now, which was something that was difficult for him to do earlier.

Ms. Saranya noticed that he is interested in Social Interaction. Whenever another child / therapist was engaging in conversation, he would always be intrigued by it and pay close attention. Now, with Saranya's Intervention his Social Interaction has drastically improved. She notes that he is interested in engaging in new activities and that he is able to grasp them fairly quickly just by observing.

His Holiness Jagadguru Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam visit

November was a blessed month in KLC, with the visit of His Holiness Jagadguru Sri Vidhushekhara Bharati Sannidhanam of Sri Sringeri Sharada Peetham to the premises on November 5th. Students, parents, devotees took his blessings and the students of KLC performed some bhajans in his presence. He went around the whole building and looked at the classrooms and vocational activity rooms and enquired about the work and training of the students. He was particularly interested in meeting the students and trainees of V-Excel.

Chandramouli - A documentary film of an adult with special needs

It was a proud moment for all of us at V-Excel, when the journey of Chandramouli, one of the trainees of the vocational unit VTU was screened privately at 6 Degrees, PVR Cinemas, Royapettah on November 15th. Some of the teachers, parents, and students of KLC were present at this screening to cheer and encourage Chandramouli and his parents and the staff and team of VTU. Enclosed is the link to the short movie.

Graduation Day - A special occasion

On 22nd November, 7 students and 2 teachers of Grade 3, graduated to Grade 4 in a simple, beautiful ceremony attended by their parents and the rest of the school cheering for them. They passed through the ring of fire and came out of it and then walked through the rainbow bridge with their teachers, held up by the teachers and students. Then the whole group enclosed them for the year to come as they enter the challenging year of Norse Mythology.

The Delight of Double Tarang – Dance programs:

The Tarang program of October was cancelled due to the heavy rains predicted and so we had it in the first week of November.

The Theme was Trishakthi in keeping with the Dussehra / Navarathri festival and the powers and stories of the 3 Goddesses – Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswathi. The students of Nritya Samsriti Trust under the able guidance of Vaidehi Harish performed beautifully and the dances and music kept the students mesmerised. Guru Vaidehi too performed a solo number for the audience, bringing out the essence of the song gracefully and beautifully. She did the live nattuvangam for the dances for her students.

Tarang for November was another dance recital on the theme “Radhe Shyam", by the students of A House of Natyam Production led by Deepti Ravichandran and her team of dancers. Deepthi, is a staunch supporter of V-Excel and has been a regular in our Tarang programs. She has performed on various themes and Radhe Shyam was a delight to watch and enjoy.

Chemistry – Acid and Bases – the Concept

The "purple cabbage experiment" was a great way to introduce students of Grade 5 to the concept of acids and bases.

Here is how it works: the purple color in cabbage comes from a pigment called anthocyanin. This pigment changes color depending on the pH level of the solution it is in. Acids turn the pigment red or pink, while bases turn it blue or green. By adding this purple cabbage water to different household items, the students got to see this color change firsthand. This hands-on approach can help make complex scientific concepts more accessible and memorable.

Training - matters – the how and why of teaching

V-Excel conducted a 5 – day in-house program for teachers from its satellite centers in Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. The Workshop was designed to bring to the participants the philosophy of curative education and get a practical insight into rhythmic movements, handwork, circle time, finger rhymes, main lesson stories and vocational activities done in KLC. Teachers and students of KLC participated in bringing all the above to them through practical methods. The participants were very satisfied and moved to be in a space which was calm and purposeful.

Celebrations of our Mothership's birthday - Vasanthi Aunty

A human being close to everyone, loving, caring, Annadaata to many, offering her skills and services still and cherished by all KLC – Vasanthi Shivram, celebrated her 77th birthday. She loves old Tamizh songs and so a few of our teachers performed a 10-minute medley of her favourite songs – as a surprise. She was touched and was happy to watch it. There was the special “Dosa Cake" a KLC favourite, which she cut and distributed to all the students and teachers. She is also an avid gardener with a green thumb, and she planted some seeds too, for the school garden.
