Sports Meet 2022

 Finally, the day is here. We've been scheduling the sports meet for quite some meet. It had to be postponed due to unexpected rains and finally, it was conducted on Sep 12 and 13 soon after the Onam holidays. We had shotput, javelin throw, 50m, 100 m etc. The involvement and participation in the second years were a little low compared to the first years. Events like shot put, javelin throw, 50 m race etc had good participation. The selection of students for the finals of each event was done on the first day. The finals followed by prize distribution were done on the second day. I was supposed to run the100m race but had to pull out due to previous complications in my leg injury. But I got to participate in the march past which was totally unexpected. By the end of the day, we were dead tired from the scorching sun, but it was all worth it.

Back to College!

 And we are back at MTTC after a month of the internship. We had a small discussion on our experiences at each school. Two or more representatives from each school came forward and shared their views on the experience. While some had some bitter experiences, everyone liked the overall teaching experience. We had our Onam celebrations on 12th September. This was the perfect way to end the college before the college closed for the Onam holidays. The day was packed with events. There was a Mega Thiruvathira which included students and teachers. Then we had cultural events at the auditorium followed by the most anticipated 'Onam Sadhya'. The items for the sadhya were prepared by the different optional classes. Later, after lunch, we had the Onam games which included musical chairs and tug of war (my team won 😃). I think our return to college couldn't have been grander.

Week 6 @ St Goretti's HSS

  15th August 2022 We were instructed to arrive at school by 7.30 AM to dress up the students for various events before the flag hoisting at 8.30 AM. There were students dressed up representing different states for the program 'Unity in Diversity' and students dressed as freedom fighters for the program 'With the Leaders'. Most of them showed up late at 8 AM and all of us our efforts with the timely help from the parents made it possible to start the rally on time. After the rally, students assembled at the auditorium for the scheduled program. Dr Saju of the Chemistry department of Mar Ivanios College was the chief guest. All the planned programs went well, even though it was planned at the last moment. 16th August 2022 It has been a while since we have come to school on a Tuesday. HM has allowed us a few more days to complete our pending work. This news came as a relief as I had a few more problems to finish at 9C. Also, we have our conscientization program pending to

As usual, I had classes at 8D and 9C 10th August 2022 Tuesday was a holiday due to Muharram. Today I taught multiplication of surds using the constructivist model.

1st August 2022  We are back to St. Gorett's for week 4 of INTENSE TEACHING PRACTICE. Today Benedict sir and Joju visited us. Joju sir observed some of our classes while benedict sir checked our records and gave us necessary corrections. Those who were free guided Joju sir to the classes that were to be observed. Later, Joju sir shared some of the common mistakes we tend to make while teaching.     4th August 2022  We had an unexpected holiday for 2 days due to heavy rains. These holidays will further delay the portion completion. We were asked to complete all our Lesson Plans by 15th August, which seems to be farfetched with these unanticipated breaks. Today Deepthi ma'am had come for observation. As usual, I had classes at 9C and 8D. 5th August 2022 We made plans to conduct extra classes for students of 8B,8C,8D,9B,9C and 9D on Saturday to complete the portions.
