What is Long?
2 What is Round?
Look Around!
Vidya didi asked all the children to sit in a circle.
What is long? My pencil box
is long and my
What is round? ball is round.
Look around, Look around,
look around. look around.
My legs are long and
my face is round. Look
around, look around.
Ask children to play this game in the class. Let the children name two things —
one long and one round. Every time, they can take the name of a new thing
and avoid repetition. For long objects, children may focus on one
dimension like tall, wide, etc. For example, some may say a tumbler
is long whereas for some others, it may be round. Both views need
to be considered. Let children explain their logic of saying so.

Let us Do
Make a house, toy, tower, robot, bus or anything you like
using different objects in your surroundings. You can also
use notebooks, books, pencil box, water bottle, waste or old
boxes, birthday caps, funnels, etc.
Divide the children in four groups. Give one shape to each group and
ask children to bring two different used or waste objects
similar to that shape. Display all the collected things in the
classroom and let children share their things and the reason
why they choose those particular things.

Wise Grandmother
Once there was a little
lamb who was going to
meet her grandmother.
The wolf saw the lamb
and wanted to catch her.
Okay, you
Please don’t eat me now. may go.
Let me first go to my
grandmother’s place and
grow big.
The lamb told everything about the wolf to her grandmother.
The grandmother got an idea and put the lamb into a
dholak and rolled it back to her house.
Read aloud the story and ask children to enact it.

The dholak rolled very fast and the wolf started running
behind it.
The wolf could not catch the lamb and she
reached home safely.
Let children reason out why the dholak rolled. Arrange a
discussion about its shape and the sloppy/inclined surface
from the jungle to the lamb’s house.
