Dear Parents,
Winter vacation has begun and it’s time to have a new learning experience. We have
compiled a set of sheets and some activities to keep our child creatively engaged during these
holidays. Creativity is a part of our makeup, as we all agree that without it the purpose of
work seems to go nowhere. Children must buckle down and satisfy themselves and exhibit
their creativity. These sheets are not just fun but will also help our child to learn and observe
new things. You must help your child in doing these sheets. You need to read the instructions
to help them wherever necessary. There are some activities in which you can also join your
child and make the activity more meaningful for him/her. Some points to keep in mind:
• Holiday homework is to be done in the sheets provided. In case any activity requires any
extra sheet, please use an A-4 size sheet only.
• Homework has to be submitted on the first day of school after vacation.
• Make sure your child completes the home work before coming back to school and submits
the same to the subject teacher.
• Please take care of the neatness of the work.
Have a very happy and fruitful vacation!!!
“Creativity is when sights
that everyone sees arouses thinking that nobody else has thought.”

Guidelines for Project Work in Economics (Class XI) The objectives of the project work
are to enable learners to:
∙ probe deeper into theoretical concepts learnt in classes XI
∙ analyze and evaluate real world economic scenarios using theoretical constructs and
arguments ∙ demonstrate the learning of economic theory
∙ follow up aspects of economics in which learners have interest
∙ develop the communication skills to argue logically The expectations of the project work
are that:
∙ learners will complete only ONE project in each academic session
∙ project should be of 3,500-4,000 words (excluding diagrams & graphs), preferably hand-
written
∙ it will be an independent, self-directed piece of study Role of the teacher: The teacher plays
a critical role in developing thinking skills of the learners. A teacher should:
∙ help each learner select the topic based on recently published extracts from the news media,
government policies, RBI bulletin, NITI Aayog reports, IMF/World Bank reports etc., after
detailed discussions and deliberations of the topic
∙ play the role of a facilitator and supervisor to monitor the project work of the learner
through periodic discussions ∙ guide the research work in terms of sources for the relevant
data
∙ educate learner about plagiarism and the importance of quoting the source of the
information to ensure authenticity of research work
∙ prepare the learner for the presentation of the project work
∙ arrange a presentation of the project file Scope of the project: Learners may work upon the
following lines as a suggested flow chart: Choose a title/topic Collection of the research
material/data
Expected Checklist:
∙ Introduction of topic/title
∙ Identifying the causes, consequences and/or remedies
∙ Various stakeholders and effect on each of them ∙ Advantages and disadvantages of
situations or issues identified
∙ Short-term and long-term implications of economic strategies suggested in the course of
research
∙ Validity, reliability, appropriateness and relevance of data used for research work and for
presentation in the project file
∙ Presentation and writing that is succinct and coherent in project file
∙ Citation of the materials referred to, in the file in footnotes, resources section, bibliography
etc. Mode of presentation/submission of the Project: At the end of the stipulated term, each
learner will present the research work in the Project File to the External and Internal
examiner. The questions should be asked from the Research Work/ Project File of the learner.
The Internal Examiner should ensure that the study submitted by the learner is his/her own
original work. In case of any doubt, authenticity should be checked and verified.
