Summer Vacation Homework (2026)

Dear Students of Class 5,
It’s time for a fun-filled and relaxing summer break. However, during the long scorching summer months, whether traveling or staying at home, time must be spent meaningfully and interestingly so that you keep in touch with school work and have lots of fun. The teachers have worked upon some fun ways of keeping you busy!
Therefore, the topic of your homework is:
“Talk about your favorite sport”
Make a poster on A3 size paper or bigger. Include lots of images and don’t forget to mention:
• What is your favorite sport?
• How did you first know about it?
• How often do you practice it?
• Explain why it is your favorite sport.
Due on first day of school year: August 31, 2026
