Due to Covid-19 Pandemic, Schools have been closed for a long period and there is a gap in teaching learning process. Government has provided energized textbooks and notebooks to all children and telecasting educational content videos in Kalvi TV and other private channels also. To reach the unreached, idio are being broadcast in All India Radio. Though Government of Tamil Nadu has taken stringent effort to mitigate the learning loss still there is a gap. 

In Kalvi TV, video lessons are telecast from 5:30 am to 10:30 p.m covering all classes, Detailed time table has been prepared for all classed based on the telecast schedule and sent to all schools to enable the students to watch the programme without missing it. Teachers are also informed to watch the programmes and facilitate the children in their learning process In addition to that, many teachers are preparing educational contents on their own and reaching the children through social media like, Whatsapp and Google Meet. They also continuously monitor and ensure their learning. 

But it is found that in some places, there is some lacuna in the teaching learning process. The principal Secretary of School Education instructed SCERT to ensure uniformity in the teaching learning process among the children to attain the learning outcomes. SO SCERT is entrusted with the task of developing month wise assignments to all the classes. These assignments will be sent to all the schools to enable the students to do the tasks themselves with the support of their teachers.

These are only suggestive and model assignments and the teachers can develop variety of assignments on their own based on this. This effort will really streamline and synchronies all the efforts put forth by the teachers. 

For Primary level (1 to V) the assignments will be based on creativity. They can be given projects which relate to the day to day life activities like preparing greeting cards, creating art works, writing new words on their own and so on. They will be given minimum two projects per subject for a month which will kindle the interest of the students to perform the assignment, and if it requires, they can get the assistance of their subject teachers. 

For classes (VI-VIII) the project will be like testing the comprehensive skill. They can do simple experiment, composition writing, creating portfolio, sharing their experiences on some trips, letter writing etc. 

For classes (IX-X) the assignments will focus on the content. The students can be asked to do various projects and writing assignments on the given topics, book review, doing simple experiments with available low cast or no cast materials 

I Kindly request to instruct the CEOs to follow the guidelines given below without fail. 

Month wise and subject wise assignments will be prepared and sent to CEOs. 

CEOs and DEOs should ensure creating WhatsAPP groups with HMs in all High and Higher Secondary School. BEOs should ensure the creation of Whats App groups with HMs in all Primary and Middle Schools. 

• Inspecting officers should share the unit wise assignments prepared by SCERT in all HMs groups. 

• HMs shoud share them in School groups and instruct the teachers to share the assignment to the children through WhatsApp groups. . 

• The students can do the assignments in their notebooks referring the textbooks and submit to the teachers.

 • Teachers should not insist the children to do all the assignments at the same time. The teacher should distribute the assignments on weekly basis and should assist them to do the assignments. 

• Teachers should analyse the assignments of the students and find out the difficult areas. To enrich their learning level in these areas, the teachers should share the concerned students the digital contents in OR codes, content videos telecast in Kalvi TV through WhatsApp HMs should ensure the submission of the assignments by the students and should instruct the subject teachers to maintain the records regarding the number of assignments submitted by the students unit wise. . The periodical report regarding the assignment process should be sent to the inspecting officers by the HMs.
