Dear Parent/Guardian,

At the culmination of the academic session, we take this opportunity to congratulate you on the
promotion of your ward to the next class. We hope our mutual endeavour of producing learned
individuals imbibed with moral values has been accomplished.

To enhance the students’ capacity of self expression, it is advised that during the vacations the students
should be encouraged to read extensively and also find some time to practice their mathematical
concepts.

Parents at home must allow their children to articulate their view points in standard English and
practice verbal communication. Such steps would prove beneficial in building a stronger language
base and prepare them for the next level. When parents provide learning experiences and academic
structure for their children over the summer, children have the advantage of maintaining basic skills
and are more likely to return to school ready to learn.

Parental involvement is very important in the academic success of children. I hope that you will enjoy
working with your child this summer. Together we can make a difference. Thank you for your
continued support!

We wish you all have an enjoyable summer break.

Sincerely,

Erum Atif
Director Academics & Education

4. Now construct a terrarium as a way to observe the water
cycle as a whole. Use air tight transparent disposable plastic
container with removable lid and create mini water cycles by
adding a rock to represent a mountain, grass for the vegetation,
and a small pond made from aluminum foil and filled with water
(see the image). You need heat from sun to power up your mini
water cycle. As the water warms up, it evaporates and then
condenses on the inside of the plastic lid. The water then "rains" on the environment inside the
container and runs off to form little ponds. Expose your mini water cycle project to different conditions
for 1-2 hrs and record observations using table 4.1. Make sure the lid is closed when the project is
exposed to different weather conditions.
