 Today's class was awesome.

First hour (9:00-10:00) was optional Deepthi mam discussed various qualities of a good teacher. Many points were added by us and then i got a clear idea of being an ideal teacher.

Second hour (10:30-11:30) was psychology class by Ancy mam. We discussed certain terms related to developmental tasks such as scheme, assimilation, accommodation and discussed it by taking example of donkeys and zebra.

 After a short break i got my classes for teaching. The students showed a sort of laziness at first but then they caught up with the portions. I taught them construction of quadrilaterals even though this chapter was a bit challenge for me as i couldn't watch them drawing i managed to get used to this online platform. The response of students were low but still i enjoyed teaching them as it was a new experience for me on online teaching platform. Now i understood the importance of offline teaching as it engages students and enhance face to face interaction which is important in teaching course!

Last week at school and last week of our internship program

 The last week of internship was very special. The students brought gifts, their feedbacks made me cry. The most important thing that amazed me was that many of my students didn't like the subject and they started liking it after my arrival. For me this was the greatest and most lovable gift from my students. From Wednesday onwards they were having exams so sometimes teachers would give exam duty to us. The last day students bid farewell to us. We gave laddoo to our teachers and Headmaster. Also we took pictures with them. I will never forget these memories and my students. Miss them very badly!
