Matching cards in Nepali


I made these matching cards for L KG during Dashain holidays and introduced them on the very first day after Dashain. It was a kind of revision without writing where even older children were confused. I wanted them to exercise like below where picture cards are displayed on the extreme left and two word cards on the right simultaneously.Then they remove the incorrect card. But older children did their way because like always they took it for matching picture cards to the corresponding words cards. Anyway what matters ultimately is that they remember the correct spelling.


U KG busy matching their way
I  advised L KG teachers to start with few cards and slowly increase the number. She  mixed up few cards but from two different sets. The cards are neither too small nor too big. They are 2 by 1 inches, thick and covered with cello tape. I prefer thick cello tape coated cards over laminated ones as picking up is easier. The pictures are from old but same coursebook which children are following. I want them to be familiar with the pictures and words. Usually teachers spend too much time writing in copies and less time dealing with individual child. I feel this should help teachers from writing endlessly.
There are as many as 12 and 15 in two different sets.
I am glad teachers found old cocoa powder tin and eraser box to hold different cards.
