Post date: Nov 21, 2011 5:42:40 PM

First Unit project - The kids will need to do a oral presentation of an Avatar of Vishnu, with the aid of a diorama . The kids can choose the Avatars they like to present. The Diorama would need to include atleast three elements from the story of the Avatar.

Presentation will be judged on

1. Organization,

2. Effective presentation,

3. Knowledge

4. Delivery

5.Usage of Time

6.creativity of the diorama.

The kids will be given 2 mins to present their Avatar project.

We are not looking for the summary of the story in the presentation. Rather, we are looking for some interesting anecdotes about the avatar, comparisons of the avatar to other scriptures, or any side anecdotes pertaining to the avatar(eg- story of Shabari in Rama Avatar). The kids are also welcome to depict the yugas and the reason for Avatar --In short --anything they want to share related to the first unit is encouraged. Parents will be the judges in presentations and the top three kids will get the prizes.

Total points possible will be 10. The kids who present it on Dec 12th will get a bonus point of 1 and .5 bonus point for the kids who present on the Jan 8th.
