 Ancy ma'am came to observe our classes, I didn't have the observation as mine was already done. Despite fearing otherwise everyone did a good job.  . The school is involved in the celebrations commemorating Mar Ivanios, some students participated in it. A scholarship test for students were conducted in the school organised by NMSS

FOURTH WEEK ROUND UP (4/7- 7/7)

As exams are coming up and there were exercises left to be done from the first chapter, a major chunk of classes were dedicated to that. The programmes organised also meant that students were not avaliable to teach. Started "We Are the World".  Students are familiar with Michael Jackson.It was easier to get the idea across. Showed a video of Michael Jackson's famous dance movies, which had the students' attention.

THIRD WEEK ROUND UP (26/6 - 1/7)

 Completed the "Boy Who Drew Cats". I enjoyed teaching  it  as it had elements of fantasy and folklore. I used ICT to get certain ideas across and it seems to have worked. Although Malayalam medium students struggle a bit they are putting in good effort in class making the class more lively and interesting. Students also responded well to the TBLT based writing tasks given to them. Started and finished  the poemTaj Mahal as well. Students struggled a bit with abstract concepts but using rela life examples helped them understand better. Here also ICT was used effectively.

FIGHTING DRUGS

 The school organized programmes to spread awareness against drug abuse. Drug abuse I an issue of great importance currently and young students are susceptible to being victims of substance abuse. Such programmes are therefore of great importance. Classes are going well. I have established a good rapport with the students. And is able to manage the classes better.
