Letter to Principal

0 585

By Suhaani –

Dear principal,

I want to request you to give the children the freedom to say anything to they want to say to their teachers. There are some teachers who scold a lot, maybe for a good reason, but it stops the children from expressing their thoughts freely.A fear begins to grow inside them for the teacher.It stops them from interacting with the teachers and are too scared to go to clear his/her doubts. I don’t mean to say that the teachers stop scolding students if they have done something wrong but I feel the teachers should scold less and listen to students. The teachers are there to help the students and clear their doubts.They should be patient and remember this their purpose is to support and not create fear.

I write to you with hope that you will think about this issue seriously.

Regards

Suhaani

Becoming

0 633

Author – Michelle Obama

Recommended for children 13+ and all adults.

All the way while reading ‘Becoming’ by Michelle Obama, I debate in my head should
I recommend the book to children. Where I sat in awe, sucked into it and inspired
every moment, I wondered are children ready for it? Why would they care that after
looking down upon on blacks the same nation elected an ordinary black man as its
President twice? Would they be keen to see this passage of History through the lens
of his wife?
Till Michelle herself came to my rescue as she writes on the 2 nd last page of the
book-
“There are portraits of me and Barack now hanging in the National Portrait of Gallery
in Washington, a fact that humbles us both. I doubt that anyone looking at our two
childhoods, our circumstances, would ever have predicted we’d land in those halls.
The paintings are lovely, but what matters most is that they are there for young
people to see-that our faces help dismantle the perception that in order to be
enshrined in history, you have to look a certain way. If we belong, then so, too, can
many others”
Children out there, I hope this book will make you look at your dreams and fears,
both. And eventually choose one over the other. It is this choice that will make all the
difference. While we the adults underestimate and limit you, hope stories like these
will make you believe that if they can so can I. Only in the sound of your footsteps,
we can quieten the noise of our questions of doubt. Lead us on children, we are here
to follow you.
Note: This book is not at all a political book but a human story. Though there are
insights into the political life but very interesting to know. Recommended for children
13+ and all adults. Parents can choose to read the book to their children if they judge
the book as boring, a journey worth undertaking together.

Vaccine Machine

By Aanya –

The vaccine machine, oh the vaccine machine !

Drop in a rupee and call out the disease.

Then flip the start switch,

The machine will hum and gently twitch.

And POP!

A little drawer will open,

And inside will be the injection!


Yawn…..


Oh, that was a lovely dream.

God, can you make it come true please ?

I’ll use it to kill this horrible ‘Corona’ disease!

By Hrishik –

Dear Mr. Albert Einstein

I am Hrishik Malhotra, a 10 year old boy from the year 2020. I can not say, “I hope you are well” as you are, well, dead. I want you to answer my questions, please. I am very curious to know a few things from you. My questions are : How is it like to be dead ? Did you go to heaven or hell ? Do you like being enacted by other people or not ? That is all.

Thank you for changing the world!

Regards,

Hrishik

Not Badminton But Friend Run

0 575

By Aashi –

Instead of badminton,

Let’s play friend run.

Where everyone runs to their friend,

And friendship letters they send.

Where everyone gives a friendship band,

And if anyone falls, they lend each other a hand.

They help each other, learn new things.

And gift each other a  beautiful ring.

This is a game where everyone wins,

And everyone grins.

Slip All

0 548

By Arjun –

I don’t know why you want to play,

Football Cause I think there’s a better game called SlipAll!


I tried it once and I slipped on the wet grass,

Boinked on my trampoline and fell on a soap bar.


I went whizzing past the town, faster than a rocket,

interrupted a phone call, and broke down an ice cream stall.


I went sliding into a mall with a chocolate ice cream in one hand

A strawberry one in the other and with my mouth I grabbed a fancy hairband.


The police were after me, the military in front,

I whizzed under their legs and jumped onto a giant ball.


I did tricks and rolled by just like an acrobat,

I reached home with a cat-ear shaped hairband and a brown and pink ice cream moustache!

Dragon

By Sifath –

I was riding on my dragon
But oh!
I fell down in a wagon
The dragon tried to catch me but he couldn’t
Should I tell the driver
Oh I shouldn’t
And off I went to melody town
not with a smile but with a frown
After few days,when the dragon came to me
There I was paying the village food fee !

Letter To The Principal

By Anisha –

Respected ma’am,

My name is Anisha Sharma. I am a student of class 6 C in your school. Today, I wanted to talk to you about our class rooms. I really appreciate all you have done in the nursery, KG and class 1 class rooms. They look so lively and colourful. One just wants to spend the whole day there. When one comes to classrooms of class 5 and above, they may not be a place where a child may look forward to coming everyday. The classrooms of middle school appear like singing a lullaby and thus give a feeling of sleeping instantly. I believe that is also the reason that there are many absentees in the class and children lack attention which may be affecting scores in studies and participation in extra-curricular.

We both know that the pressure of studies increases rapidly from middle school and children become stressed. So, I have a suggestion. I would like to propose that we schedule at least one day in the whole year letting students to let out their creativity and imagination ,draw their thoughts and express their feelings on the class walls by painting. This way children would love to visit their class each day. I hope you would consider my request. Thank you for your support. 

Regards

Anisha Sharma

Who Am I ?

0 573

By Saanvi –

Many questions in my mind
Every day and every night
Making me curious day by day
My answers are on the way
All questions of my
When, which, what and why
Taking my book out on the table
Finding my answers from the fable
My thoughts have now no limit
I will burst them in this minute
My thoughts are going beyond the sky
Making me think Who am I ?

By Nandini –

OMD!!! Oh Monkey Disaster 

Just look at these naughty monkeys jumping around

And also look at those poor trees surround

Think of the slimy insects inside their fury night suits

Do they even brush their teeth?

Oh! These naughty monkeys,

Make them shut up or else they’ll continue doing 

‘’Khee, Khee, Khee!!!”
