Bangalore (Teaching & Happy Hearts)
The Project:
1) Teaching:
Starting with the belief that our future society will be developed by the children of today, our dream is to give enough opportunities and confidence to the slum & street children to see them one day as responsible citizens of the future.
With the ideas and creativity of hundreds of past volunteers in India, FSL is developing the “Sunrise Model of Education”, a method of effective teaching which is practical and fun to use. The Sunrise model was designed as a helping structure to teaching anyone who has never been to a school or attended any kind of formal education. To teach a person who has never been educated in his/her life is going to be difficult, and the Sunrise Model also summarizes 12 years of conventional education with one basic structure.
The Camps in Bangalore consist in teaching English & Creative Education in a self-chosen fashion to the local children at a primary school as well as at center premises during & after school activities. Developing lesson plans and ideas in the group and passing this information through for future volunteers is part of the plan to create follow-up and long-term improvements in an educational model created with the help of hundreds of volunteers.
2) Happy Hearts:
"Have fun while you learn", is the concept of this unique project, our ongoing Happy Hearts projects exclusively for the orphan and street children. Joy or happiness is an integral part of the life inseparable that otherwise human beings would quickly die of boredom and monotony and our children are no exception to this.
Entertainment with Education is the method of these projects, for the volunteers will be taking the children out on a one-day picnic in an effort to bring some entertainment into their lives. Apart from just play and fun, the children will also be visiting places of various vocational centers like bio-farms, parks, nature clubs, museums etc, in order that the children can form ideas in their young minds which would later evolve as they grow-up to what careers they can take up in their lives and bring consciousness about the environment and the planet they are living on.
Requirements: You have to love children, as you will be surrounded with loads of them everyday. No prior experience in teaching is required, but appreciated. The volunteers should have an intermediate level of English at least.
