Some of our school children, while in school,

We Don’t see them laughing around

Less smile on their faces

No friends

Always feeling dejected

Less confident

Feels isolated

Why?

It’s the Language problem

Those students’ mother tongue is Hindi

Their parents and their surroundings speak mostly Hindi.

Teachers don’t know Hindi and those Hindi students don’t

understand Tamil. It’s an obstacle in the teaching–learning

process also.

Because of the lack of communication, they couldn’t befriend

their classmates.

And that’s the cause of no twinkle in the eyes of the children.

To make students believe that they can overcome this language problem themselves and can help their Hindi friends in learning Tamil language.

In our school, two Hindi students can understand both Hindi and Tamil well. They can act as a translator.

We formed two teams. Each team consists of

One Translator

Hindi students who knows only Hindi

Tamil students who are happy to learn Hindi from Hindi students

We set companions. Games were conducted to cement the relationship between the two language groups.

We Celebrated Rakshabandhan and decided to celebrate all the upcoming festivals like Holy, Dhasara.

Students exchanged and learned what they know like dance, rhymes, songs, games in other language happily.

Every day, students spent half an hour in the evening for other language learning.

Hindi students gave a speech in Tamil on Independence day and Tamil students sang a Hindi song in the same event.

Hindi students are encouraged to perform in both Hindi and Tamil also
