Play School is Important

"There's increasing evidence that children gain a lot from going to preschool," says Parents advisor Kathleen McCartney, PhD, dean of Harvard Graduate School of Education, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. "At preschool, they become exposed to numbers, letters, and shapes. And, more important, they learn how to socialize -- get along with other children, share, contribute to circle time."

Statistics show that a majority of kids attend at least one year of preschool: According to the National Institute for Early Education Research (NIEER), more than two-thirds of 4-year-olds and more than 40 percent of 3-year-olds were enrolled in a preschool in 2005. 

"Children who attend high-quality preschool enter kindergarten with better pre-reading skills, richer vocabularies, and stronger basic math skills than those who do not," says NIEER director W. Steven Barnett, PhD.

"Every child should have some sort of group experience before he starts kindergarten," says Amy Flynn, director of New York City's Bank Street Family Center. Music and gymnastics classes are great, but what preschools do that less formal classes don't is teach kids how to be students. Your child will learn how to raise her hand, take turns, and share the teacher's attention. What's more, she'll learn how to separate from Mommy, who often stays in a music or gym class. All of this makes for an easier transition to kindergarten. "Kindergarten teachers will tell you that the students who are ready to learn are those who come into school with good social and behavior-management skills," Smith says.

In fact, educators have so recognized the importance of giving kids some form of quality early education that about 40 states now offer state-funded pre-K programs.

So Fortune Group has started a play school in Soro so that the child of soro can get better education even though they are not in metro. Soro child now do not have to move to balasore or bhubaneswar. They can get better play school and child can get better education in Soro with the help of Fortune Kidz Pre- School.

This fortune Kidz Play school is backed by educational Group who have lot of knowledge about childhood learning and education.

Ms Puspashree pani is the principal of Fortune Kidz Play School Soro and she is qualified with Montessori method. The entire staff are NTT trained. They care and love every child. They also develop the mortar skills. Fortune Kidz is the only play school in soro and is also the best school in soro. Once the child completes the Play group he is promoted to Kindergarten class and then to Fortune Junior school and his normal education starts with Std. 1 on words.  These children will definitely better perform than other schools which are following normal pattern and give unnecessary pressure without understand the child's proper development pattern.

Fortune Kidz works on every child and has a very small student teacher ratio 10:1.

They take every child though structured process of Educational development which is being done first time in Soro.

Computer Training in Schools at Soro

The use of electronic devices have dramatically changed our lives. Computers became popular by 1995 and by 2005 every school wanted to train their child on computer.
Computer education makes lot of benefits to the life of a child. Imagine computer as a bike. The work that you were doing slowly can be done faster.

Many private schools adopted computers training to their students. But it has both positive and negative sides. Schools and parents needs to be very careful while giving computer training to their children.

At very early stage computer as an electronic device is dangerous for kids. It can reduce some of the sensory development of your child. So donot give mobile phones or computers before at least 7 yrs of age.

Computers like TVs engage students for long time in making them idle. It sometimes hinders in thinking process and reduces the inquisitive mind and reduces physical development.

Computers with internet connections may pop up unwanted content also. Its more important your child learns everything and then you give him a computer to utilize for his development.

First the child has to learn balance to work, run and develop muscle for doing all these and then he should be given a bike or cycle.

Use computers like that. Ask him to be a master of computer and utilize for his work.
Some schools do it very badly. They ask their child to learn and write the essays about computer parts and full forms of CPU etc. then they ask child to work on programs like MSW logo which are useless.

What is required is a child should understand what a computer is for, What work it can do for us and how we can use it. So that if he wants to play he can play on the computer or if he wants to watch a video he can download form net and watch or at a later stage can develop programs to do his work.

A constructive use of computer is highly essential otherwise schools can befool you in the name of computer.

Ask the schools what and how they teach computers?
How this computer education is beneficial to their child?
See to the real development of the child in computer....

Fortune Kidz school soro uses computer like the following...
1. Visual ads like animated rhymes and animated shows (solar System, Human Body) are shown by computers of TV
2. When the child is in UKG they are asked to know switching on off and different parts of the computers and their function
3. When the child is in Class one they are asked to operate to open picture file, video file, disk and location of computer, memory. input out put device and different uses
4. By class one students have hand on experience and online tests are also taken though interactive software developed by educational sites.

This is a structured way that fortune Junior English medium school trains students through computers.
In Soro fortune school is the only school who have a structured computer education program developed for their students.

English Medium Education and Schools at Soro

It has been found that there are several English medium schools in soro balasore. good that a small town supports several schools.
Some of the problems with these schools are that they invest more time in bringing kids to their schools with false promises than investing in study.
Some schools even repeatedly visits door to door and tells stories and brings admission. Some schools for free.
As a result of which good schools who concentrate in education are left behind. Parents are looking for money and comparing schools on that basis.

So I write this blog to educate them about some of the facts.

1. Good Education is never free. As a good doctor will not go to ask the patients to come to him like wise good teachers and schools will never go and force you for admission.

2. Education is beyond money. A school which says the owner has lot of money is not necessarily a good school. They should pay attention to teaching.

3. Number is not important. Some schools promote that they have lot of students. but it does not make teaching good. rather with less students teacher can attend more.

4. Good methodology is vital. Syllabus, pattern and pedagogy are the tools for better education ...so ask the school for it.

Be careful about few things...
None of the private school as of date in soro is approved. Forget about CBSE. They are simply cheating you as you do not know. Most of the schools who are saying that they are approved ask them to show their affiliation letter and be sure once the school is approved it will have autonomous functioning and examinations at the same place. none of the schools in Soro have basic minimum infrastructure to run even a primary school No CBSE will ever give them permission with this condition. Be aware of these cheaters ... and read CBSE approval procedure ...you can know yourself.

CBSE schools needs lot of investment and care like land building lab ground teachers equipments sports inhouse hospitals common room at least 13 class rooms with 30 ft by 20 ft size approval from municipality and many many more. those who are busy in visiting to houses to collect students by saying stories can never ever so it. hope things will change and parents know the truth and good education system comes to soro.

Health and Education are precious things. Once you spoil the education of your child you have virtually killed him.
Our advise
1. Visit every school
2. Understand what they teach
3 Listen to facts not ideas or impressions
4. Do not come under pressure or emotion
5. Try to understand where your child will be taken care and his mental and physical development will happen.
6. Do not go to schools who bargains to get more admission or even come to you place regularly because parents do not go to them. They are business man and ruin the entire future of your child.
7. Always remember there is never a second chance for education... once gone means gone
8. Admit your child in pre-schools and play schools where mental development will happen.
9. Go to those schools whose promoters are educated and educationists
and not business man or sales man.
