Campus Ambassador - Battle of The 3 Armies

The three boys Kunwer Shayyan (PJC), Talal Bin Naeem (PJC) and Shuja Ali (PJC) from PIPS (Boys) participated in Dawn Spelling Bee competition held on 22, October 2014. The boys did their level best and managed to grab 3rd position in the competition. They were awarded with the certificates.

Phonetics workshop: A Pronunciation Workout was held at PIPS (Boys) on 19.10.2014. This workshop catered to the needs of both students and teachers, with or without a background in phonetics, who wished to find out more about learning and teaching pronunciation. Participants were provided with a practical, hands-on experience of producing all 44 sounds of the English language using teaching techniques that can be applied to students of varying ages and levels. Using a colour-coded phonetic chart as a 'map' of the English sounds and various exercises to isolate the muscles involved in articulation, we discovered how a technique called 'kinesthesia' can be used to help students gain more articulatory control, break the habits and limitations caused by the mother tongue and make production of second language sounds as easy as ABC. Drawing on content from the Oxford University Press Floppy's Phonics Sounds and Letters programme, Oxford International Primary English and Oxford Dictionaries, this workshop showed us that creating phonemic awareness and teaching pronunciation can be easy, productive and fun! Ms. Azka Khan who conducted this workhop has a Master's Degree in English Linguistics and Literature (gold medalist) from NUML where she also taught Spanish to undergraduate and certificate level students. She is currently working with Oxford University Press, Islamabad as an Academic Coordinator and she has worked as a teacher trainer with Oxford university Press, Lahore in the past. She has also been associated with the Dawn Spelling Bee project as editor, pronouncer and trainer for the past several years.
