Sense of Joy

"Miss please dont go"
"No Children, I need to leave.Now go have your food"
"No Miss. Please dont leave. You can have rice and sambar with us. Then you tell us another story"


These were the dialogues between kids and me on last saturday when I was about to leave the school. I was feeling very happy. Only such moments can give one a sense of satisfaction. I was truly happy for two reasons.First that I had built good bonding with kids within a short period of time and second I had finally discovered teaching method that kids as well as I enjoyed.


From the day I Joined RIF ,I have tried all methods and techniques to make my teaching effective. Few of my friends have tried too. But nothing seemed to work fine. We were clueless with two hours that we get in a week how would we teach kids effecively. From past two weeks I'm glad that kids are learning whatever taught as well as enjoying. Thanks to teachers of Chikkalsandra Govt school. headmistress of the school guided me. At first I was doubtful about the possiblity but I thought let me give a try and result was splendid.


I have started communicating with kids in english. At first they wont follow. I translate it for once. Then I tried to communicate the same words over and over with action. More than writing or making them to read,teaching through actions works fine.


I'm not sure why am I writing this blog. May be its the sense of joy or satisfaction that I experienced. I'm eager to meet the kids coming saturday and I'm sure even kids will be eager to meet me..
