Yoga is a physical activity which has become more popular these days. There are huge benefits of yoga to each and every individual. For our adopted school students, we teach yoga more than thrice in a week. As students are very young, they are capable of doing very difficult asanas easily. Our PET’s teach flexibility exercises before getting into asana which ultimately helps them to do the asana easily in very less attempts. Yoga helps in promoting good physical and mental health. Yoga comprises meditation, which improves concentration and helps students to focus more on academics. Each asana has its own benefits physically and mentally.
Drawing is one of the most regular activities in all our adopted schools. The books we have provided consist of pictures, students do coloring for those pictures. When there is a festival, based on that theme students do drawings. From the above pictures, it was very clear. On the day of sri rama navami, students have drawn pictures of Lord rama and sita.On 10 th anniversary of our foundation, students have drawn the foundation Logo. Students’ drawings don’t look like drawings, they are drawn by 4 and 5th class students. The drawings just look like they are drawn by high school students. This was possible only because of students’ regular practice. Our volunteers teach easy ways to students for an effective outcome. Basically, students who are studying class 4 and 5 are able to draw small drawings like fruits, flowers and animals. Portrait drawing is a little tough for them but students from our adopted schools were doing excel in it. Hope students may practice more and receive huge appreciation.
Along with these, students are also learning activities like march past, karate, elocution, flexibility exercises which are the base for yoga, pyramid formations and dance and also indoor games chess and carrom board.
Dance was the most liked activity by the children. From the beginning to till date, students have improved their level of performance gradually. Initially, dance masters taught students about the basic movements. Then after those basic classes, the dance master chooses a song and teaches accordingly. While teaching, students were learning with keen observation and good interest. However, our staff takes classes in the afternoon session after the regular subject classes. So for students there will be no deviations and they will focus on learning. Dance is not only movement of hands and legs, but it also includes usage of property, maintaining expression throughout their act and good coordination. Students were taught about all the above things. Basically we teach all these activities to primary school students who are of age around 10-11.Even at this small age, students were following the master as said, like expressions, coordination etc. Let us hope that students may learn more and more and achieve greater heights.
It is the most crucial time for every student before exams. When exams are nearby, students expect to have a Study hour. Study hours are completely different from regular classes. Study hour helps students to revise all the topics in the presence of the teacher and clarify doubts if they have any. It also gives a motivation to learn more and more by seeing their friends. During this time, students learn the subject as well as practice them and get their doubts clarified. One more important thing was, we have announced an honorarium for the volunteers who spent their extra time for study hours. Students have utilized this study hour completely and wrote their exams very well.
