Session- 1 :
Comprehension and communication skills- Introductory Ice breakers
ICE BREAKERS :
There are many types of ice breakers, each suited to different types of objectives. Here we look at a few of the more popular types and how they can be used to build the confidence of the students.
These are used to introduce participants to each other and to facilitate conversation among them.
Nonverbal communication is one of the trickiest skills to develop. After all, so much of how we communicate with our face and bodies is subconscious. This activity forces participants to communicate lines in a script with body language. It will bring awareness to participants about how important and effective simple gestures and expressions can be in conveying a very specific message.

Session- 6 :
Homonyms, homograph and homonym
Homophones are words that sound the same but are different in meaning or spelling. Homographs are spelled the same but differ in meaning or pronunciation. Homonyms can be either or even both. To help remember, think of the etymology: homophones have the same sound (the Greek phonos), homographs have the same spelling (Greek graphein), and homonym comes from the Greek word meaning "name" (onyma).
