I would like to share a small story. There were two students in a class, who were totally different from each other. One was a polite child and the other one was mischievous with his own group. This group once decided to create some nuisance in class and started troubling others. All other students started responding in some or the other way, only there was one child in the class who was very calm and polite to this group. As they increased troubling him more, he responded to them more politely. Everyone tried to annoy that kid, but no one succeeded in annoying him. Self-realization in the best we can do if we make some mistake. The same thing happened with that group. They realized that they were wrong and finally felt sorry for that nuisance.
Being Polite
I would like to share a small story. There were two students in a class, who were totally different from each other. One was a polite child and the other one was mischievous with his own group. This group once decided to create some nuisance in class and started troubling others. All other students started responding in some or the other way, only there was one child in the class who was very calm and polite to this group. As they increased troubling him more, he responded to them more politely. Everyone tried to annoy that kid, but no one succeeded in annoying him. Self-realization in the best we can do if we make some mistake. The same thing happened with that group. They realized that they were wrong and finally felt sorry for that nuisance.
From the above story, we get to know that, No matter what are the circumstances in front of us. We should always face it politely. Remember Father of our Nation “Mahatma Gandhi” who always said, “Even if anyone comes and slaps you, don’t raise your hand rather show him the other side of your face”. Being polite is the best value, asset and weapon to tackle any situation.
When we get into some trouble or face some problem. We have the tendency to look for the person who is calm and polite in any condition. So that we can share our thoughts and take some advice. The same way others will also look to us when we will stay polite to everyone. No one can do anything wrong to you until and unless you do it for others. It is better to wear a smile and avoid misconceptions.

Service to Humanity
Service to humanity is service to God.
We all are aware of COVID-19.
The whole world is suffering from this disease. Italy, Spain, America, China etc .are in brutal condition. Even developed countries are still fighting against this curse. Including ours, most of the countries are on lockdown. Lockdown is the safest step to avoid COVID-19 but what will happen to those people who don't have a home, shelter, and money.
In this condition, humanity comes in front of COVID-19 because it is not differentiated through caste, creed, gender and religion. Any religion of any human race has come to serve the poor and needy ones in this pandemic.
Many people are serving food packages and have donated money in
If I say; doctors, nurses, paramedical and police forces are our real heroes and gods who are serving us, then I would not be wrong.
We can help them by staying at home and it is the duty of every human being to make our universe more beautiful and live able for all species.
Due to lockdown, our planet is also healing. Birds and animals are also feeling comfortable without human disturbance, so God keeps all things on the place positively. I hope that governments take sustainable steps when this lockdown is lifted so that the environment does not suffer a rebound, increase in emissions(as has happened in the 2008 financial crisis).
With our thinking and actions, we can support our nature, serve love, kindness and hope, soon everything will positively cure and we will win this fight against the Coronavirus.

Patience is not just a trait, but it’s a skill that needs to be developed. Thus, developing a good deal of patience is leading a satisfying life.
Patience must be made as one of the pillars of life, as a good amount of patience is the highway to a successful and peaceful life. If you show patience, you can gain new skills and improve your talents. Thus, you can direct yourself towards the achievement of your goals and objectives. It helps you control your impulsive decisions while it aids you greatly to deal with stressful situations and emotional ups and downs effectively.

Importance of Thoughtfulness
Being thoughtful and considerate about others is very joyful. Our lives are very busy and we often rush as well. In this fast-paced life, it is often hard to remember that it is important to be thoughtful. It only takes a moment out of your day to be thoughtful to others. Just a simple pleasant word, a gentle smile can make someone's day better. When we share a moment out of our own lives to be thoughtful to someone around us, it actually helps us live better lives and makes the world a much better place, too.
Being thoughtful doesn’t even require you to spend any money, or buy anything for anyone else. Doing things that are nice for others can brighten up a whole day, or can help a person change their attitude. Being thoughtful is more than just politeness, it is changing the world for the better, and doing things that you would like others to do for you.

Respect
Respect is for those who deserve it, not for those who demand. It means respect is earned
India is a country that is united in diversified society. The religions, languages, dressings and everything differs yet the people of our country are united. Being a country of rich cultural heritage, there are various cultural treasures and traditional practices in every state and also in every part of the states. The dances, dramas, music, writing and languages everything is different from one state to another. But if we deeply watch the people of India, they respect and follow that culture and tradition from all parts of India.
We can see the people in our country helping each other and respecting each others’ lifestyle, religion and language. When it comes to languages, we can see so many diversification but people have accepted one language as the national language (Hindi) and they follow the same too.

Mother
She is a friend,
Helps me follow the trends.
She is the best cook,
Helps me with my books.
She is a daughter,
And our family's laughter.
She is a wife,
She gives the best vibes.
She is a mother,
Doesn't let me suffer.
She is strong,
A shoulder to cry on.
My daughter, my love.
She is beautiful,
Makes my life wonderful.
She is a candle of light,
Makes our future bright.
She came to our life like a fairy,
She is my secret diary.
She is my first love
And the biggest reason to live on earth
The best gift from God,
She is the Best Mom.

Unity in Diversity
Unity in Diversity – the most wonderful aspect of our country is its strength from time being. We are united because of our ancestors have taught us to live with all kinds of people and embrace them like brothers and sisters. Though we grow in a particular system we cannot deny that we have friends and neighbours who are from different cultures. This unity in diversity should continue for generations to come; this can be done only by sharing the importance of Unity to students in school. We should be aware of our values and history our country has come through. Elders should take responsibility in transferring the valuable thoughts to kids at home so that our pride of our nation does not fall down for any reason. We should always remember that , “United we stand, Divided We Fall"

Friendship
As a quote said 'A Friend in Need is a Friend in Deed.'
A friend is a one who shares every part of our life without doubting and having trust issues. With this I will tell few words regarding 'Friendship'. A friend can't be defined in one or two sentences. Like a life of friendship is an inverted deck of cards. One cannot justify what happens next. Friendship completely depends on trust, faith, honesty, like, love, emotions, etc. that we share with a person throughout our life.
A friend is a one whom we don't like to share to anyone like Lord Rama had Hanuman, like Lord Krishna had Sudama, similarly my friendship is also based on no ego, no hates, with my friend Dushyant.

Mothers
Mothers are so sweet,
They give us tasty feast.
Sometimes they love and sometimes they scold,
They are always beautiful and bold.
Mothers are essential part of our life,
They work in the kitchen with knife.
Without them a single moment we cannot spend,
And they are like our best friend.
When we are sad,
They make us glad.
Mothers are our world,
And they are like a shining pearl.

We discussed and divided the work schedule to ensure that all possible subjects are covered. This includes morning fitness activities, creativity, reading and writing.
While parents do face difficulty in accepting this change, some parents are cooperative and are helping their wards learn while others are trying.
Our target for the coming week is to speak to all parents, understand their concerns and find a best possible solution so that the learning doesn't stop .

Senior Section
After the lock down, the Class Teachers updated their whats app group of their respective
Classes from 17th March. From the next day onward, the teachers gave work to the students according to their curriculum. In the senior section, after making groups of Class X and XII, they continued to talk to the students and told them to keep doing their work especially written work.
Their problems were solved by calling their subject teacher. Talking on the phone revealed that the students are doing the given work. Children who were not doing it were encouraged. If there was still any problem then when regular class will be held then it will be repeated once. Physical exercise activity is also being give to ensure that children do not get bored at home. Not all but some children are also showing interest in it. The teachers in senior section have divided the day, to test them every week. Children will check their own test. This week, the teachers created the results of their class on Fedena and on March 28th, the progress cards were delivered to the students online. The earlier plan was to declare the result on 28th March. Apart from this, teachers will be involved in the preparation of question papers.
This is the second week of online learning. Under the leadership of Principal Ma’am, we decided not to do the work of all subjects every day, but to give work of only one subject. Thus, children will not face any difficulty in working. From March 30, a plan was made and according to that, the educators started giving work online to the students. Leaving the prescribed syllabus proceeded to increase other qualities as creative writing in languages, numerical ability in mathematics etc. Physical exercise activity is conducted on Saturday. On Sunday, they do the activity given by Principal Ma’am. The students are doing their work regularly. The educators are constantly connected with the students to see that they are not facing any problem. A week later, an achievement was found that many of the students who did not answer on the phone are now answering. Even some students call or message to say that their work is done. They also share photos of their written work. Although it is decreasing now but there is hope that more success will be achieved next week. I wish all the best to educators and students.
