==Target Grades and Subjects== |
|||
We chose Class 2 over Class 1 because a large portion of Nepali schoolchildren do not attend preschool. In grade one they are just getting used to being in school. With Class 2, they are already accustomed to attending school but young enough that we can measure how well this initiative helps young children. |
|||
We chose class 6 because a large portion of Nepali children drop at class 6. Also, we can test out more complicated learning activities and this challenges us to see how well our strategies work with higher subjects. In 2009, we plan to expand to classes 3 and 7, 2010 to 4 and 8, until we cover all public school grades. |
