A New Day, A New Friend

 Today is the first Friday of February. The first hour was by Maya ma'am. She discussed about the 'Strengths and Weakness List' each of us made the previous day. The discussion made me realize that most of us face the same problem, but some are good at hiding it than others. Later, ma'am made us sit such that no two people from the same optional class gets to sit together. I sat next to Rakhi from Malayalam optional. She seemed to be as uncomfortable as me for the first few seconds. But we got along with each other after a while. Hope we'll have more elaborate talks as this course continues.

Later we had Ancy ma'am's class, where we discussed about the development in the early childhood phase. In our college, spirituality is an important part of education. We had the holy mass for the first Friday of the month.

For the rest of the day we continued our discussion on Talent Hunt. But it seems like we are running out of ideas, hopefully we'll come to a decision and start our practice by Monday.

Day 30 of Online Classes

 Today the day began with Joju sir's class and the physical science association continued with their seminar. We were introduced to the software 'Hot Potatoes', which can be used to make online quizzes. If I had known this earlier I would have used it for 'Mathletics'. The topic was handled by Ancy and Gayathri of Physical science association and they did a great job. Later we had Ancy ma'am's class where we discussed about social change. Ma'am made us switch on our cameras to take a group photo. It felt good too see many faces after a long time.

A New Phase

 This week marked the beginning of teaching practice. St Mary's, Pattom is the school assigned for me. It's going to be a great opportunity and experience for all of us.The internship was supposed to start on 5th January but it was delayed by a day due to an unexpected holiday.  6th Jan 2022, It was the first day of our internship and to be honest I was excited and nervous at the same time. I had the first hour at 9J1 which was utilised to show a video on 'Social Media and its Effects'. The video was shot and shown as a part of a government initiative to create awareness of the positive and negative effects of social media. I couldn't take a class, but I got to be the tech support for the teachers. This helped me get rid of that unnecessary stress. But I had another period at 9I1 and I used this period to get to know the students, their previous knowledge etc. and also brushed some of the previously taught topics. 7th Jan 2022, Today the second batch attended school...
