“Kids aren’t going to learn from someone they don’t like,” said Rita Pierson in her famous TED talk, which could not be further from the truth.

Movies- an enchanting way to spend your free evenings! They leave you captivated like nothing else, and give life to your imagination.

However, the important question creeps up is it a healthy escape? With a proper limit, and if viewed with the right intentions then!
Movies not only help serve as a platform for one to express themselves and find something to relate to bu ..read more

Whereas competitions serve as a means of encouraging children to explore new avenues and push their boundaries. When it comes to communication between teachers and students, one can observe a shift from authoritarian dialogue to more open, friendly and constructive conversations.

What an Exploration Day it was @CMRNPS.
“Teaching children about the natural world should be treated as one of the most important events in their lives.”

Children walked through a maze. It was an excellent body-balancing activity. They recognized bamboo trees, custard apple trees, touch me, not plants, and fig trees. We climbed t ..read more

Before taking any important decision, it is always good to self-reflect and then decide.
Once you have decided, could you write d ..read more
