HOLIDAYS HOMEWORK

Grade-VII

Session 2015-16

Dear Parent

Keeping in mind the emerging viewpoint in higher education and thorough understanding

of todays real life problems, an interdisciplinary approach is required and students who are regularly exposed to classroom conversations and assignments that tackle real-world

problems in an interdisciplinary way engage in significant learning. The Holidays

Homework has been designed with the same objective in mind.

Please note that students should do the home assignments of all subjects in one scrap

book only. Kindly ensure that the students do a presentable assignment as it will be

assessed.

Principal

Note: All the work should be hand written. In case of any query, kindly contact the Class Teacher through E-mail.

Grade VII

TOPIC: WEATHER, CLIMATE AND ADAPTATIONS

(Interdisciplinary approach)

ENGLISH: As the temperature rises, you are feeling uneasy and irritable. The blazing sun does not

permit you to play outside for a long period of time. All you want is an escape to some

place cool. At night, when you fall asleep, Mother Nature answers your prayer and whisks

you off to a Faraway Land, where the climate is exactly the opposite of where you live.

Write a short story in about 300 words centering around this Faraway Land, exploring

the reasons why their climate is pleasant unlike yours. Give a suitable title to your story.

GUIDELINES

1. Draw/Paste relevant pictures to make your story interesting. 2. Highlight how human beings irresponsible actions have resulted in drastic climatic

changes and also suggest measures to preserve the planet.
