Class 1 students are very young and need the help of their parents to know exactly what the olympiad is all about. They should be made familiar with the exam and start to make them know about the different subjects and develop their general knowledge. They should not be pressured to score high or be at the top. At this age, they should be encouraged to participate and help them learn without any stress or pressure. Learning about the Olympiad from a young age will give the children to face the competitive exam with confidence when they go to the higher classes.
7. How can General Knowledge be developed in children from a younger age?
Class 1 children are very young in age and they themselves cannot learn or gain the habit of learning systematically. Therefore, parents have to develop the habit of asking them questions related to General Knowledge, making them read the small sentences in the newspaper or magazines. These habits when developed from a young age can be useful and children once they get used to certain habits, they automatically gain the required knowledge. But making them develop the habit of learning from sources like newspapers and telling them the importance is very essential. Parents should also keep in their mind that they are not pressured and children should learn with enjoyment.
