A dry May and a leaking June,

Make the farmer whistle a merry tune.

A snowstorm in May

Is worth a wagonload of hay.

Among the changing months,

May stands confessed

The sweetest, and in fairest colors dressed!      

          –James Thomson, Scottish poet (1700–48)

   

3rd May 2021

On 3rd May, first online session was optional hour. Meekha ma'am in her usual cheery self gave us a warm greeting, discussed our plans for distributing prizes for the recent competition that we had conducted and then turned the session to Gayathri for presenting her reading and reflection. Gayathri took the book 'A Thousand Splendid Suns' by Khaled Hosseini.  


Khaled Hosseini is one of my personal favourites. He is an Afghan- American novelist, physician, a spokesperson for the Afghan nation, and what more. His works echoes different subdued voices and change our own perceptions about the people living in the Middle-Easts. 
Next session was Psychology, which was taken by Gibi ma'am. Varsha and Uthara presented their seminars on the topic Multiple Intelligence proposed by Howard Gardner.



It was an interesting session.

 September 27th 2021                                       Disinterest or Uninterest Both words are used quite often today. But both words don't mean the same thing. Uninterest is the opposite of interest. It means to not show any care or concern for things. One is said to show disinterest when they don't bother to do something.

For example: She showed disinterest in taking sides. John was disinterested in his children's fight. Today session Joju sir made us stick positive quotes on the Jamboard. It was super fun and motivating to read so many good thoughts. Physical science students continued with their group discussion.  Nikhil does a good job recording all the group discussions.  The next se...

  Digital Textbook   A  digital textbook  is more interactive and engaging. It is designed keeping the modern tech-savvy learners in mind.To address their learning styles and needs, an e-textbook is usually designed with features that will help them learn better and engage more with the learning material.      A major selling point of digital textbooks is that they offer the opportunity for students to access multimedia content, such as embedded videos, interactive presentations and hyperlinks. Tests and other assessments can be included in the textbook, classmates can work together, and student progress can be tracked. Touchscreen technology offers students the chance to participate in projects, research or experiments. This may offer a different or better learning experience than printed textbooks.

 26-08-2022 Last Day of Teacher Training Internship @     ST Goretti's HSS, Nalanchira The day finally came and I was feeling sad that we had to leave during the exam seasons as it prevented us from saying a proper goodbye to our students and our dear teachers.  Even during these days, students came to us to clear their doubts. Although it was our last day we still attended to our school duties and assisted teachers in their invigilation duties. At 11:15 we assembled at the Hm's office for a short vote of thanks session. I was in charge of the speech and thanked all the staff and students for their love and support. We also presented a thank you gift to the HM and also distributed some sweets. Then we had a photography session with the teachers. I can never forget the experience that I got from St Goretti school.
