Day 1

| 7minute Rule |
Today I learnt about the 7 minute rule, As a class during Math and English we engage the students in different stations, and I have realized children often tend to get bored. And thats cause the station can go more than 15 minutes, and as a child your attention span cannot go more than 7 minutes.. So changing that practice and getting it down to at least 8 minutes will be a priority. So for instance, Table A has writing Practice, Table B has phonics stations, Table C has a dice game, all the three related to the same concept, after every 8 minutes the students of the table will switch.
There are no bad students just bad teachers.
This has been such a wake up call, as a mother too, its amazing the wonders we can do to a child's life, and the day we give up on them, its all over. Like sir had said its always nice to keep forgiving each other just like the way the children do. Forgive ourselves for not trying enough, and forgive them for being so hard, but at the end of the day, as long as we keep trying, we are good teachers.
A smile goes a long way too in this case.
Purpose of Education has evolved from focusing on basic skills like fundamental skills—reading, writing, and arithmetic—necessary for industrial jobs and character development where there was strong emphasis on moral education and character building, reflecting societal values during the Great Depression in 1934.
To Global perspective where now educations focuses on preparing students for a rapidly interconnected world and Greater emphasis on inclusivity and addressing the diverse needs of students, including those with different backgrounds and learning styles
