Ready, Set Act!

As scheduled, we had our theatre presentation on Monday(15th Nov 2021) and also the official welcoming ceremony for our juniors. All the 6 groups put up a splendid job in preparing a script, getting the costumes, props etc required for their performance. Honestly, I thought the limited time would just affect the quality of the performances but none of the skits looked like it was prepared just hours before the performance.

The first group's topic was 'Chaayakada' and this was my favourite of all the performances. I think the audibility of the dialogues played a major role in my choice. Each and every person performed their roles very brilliantly.

My group, Sapphire (3rd group) performed on the topic,' Hope'. We divided our performance into two parts to depict the different forms of hope. We had a small dance at the beginning that we rustled up at the last moment. The first part dealt with a situation that provided hope to a young girl with suicidal thoughts The second part was more comedic and showed the hopes of a recently unemployed young man who's looking to get married. I think lack of time and inaudibility of dialogues played a huge role in the quality of our performance. But everyone stepped up their game to put up a show.


Yet again students of MTTC has proved that nothing can stop them from putting up a great show.

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...
