Namma Veedu teachers comments-Miss.Mallika

Where am I?

Miss. Mallika is sharing her review about her experiences on the 100th day in our school. She comes form a very under developed back ground of the village with basic schooling, but she has accepted the system and concentrates in certain areas of the curiculum and performs well.

‘’ It is beautiful home for very young children. Montessori materials are very attractive. They are placed in such a way any one can take and use them. The way these children sit on mats and work looks different.
We are just observing their work. EPL activities are very interesting and useful. The children are enjoying the freedom to touch the materials and choose the work. They can express their own feelings to me without any fear.
Montessori materials are giving the chance to touch and feel. The materials are making the children to concentrate more. Body care and hygiene are very important in this school. The best punishment is to make the child without any work.
Children are feeling for their mistakes and they are now exposed to English language and getting used to them slowly.
Love and care is the tool to tame and cultivate the discipline in a child.
Children are choosing their work according to their age and needs.
Each material is connected with language and math skill.
Children are taught to do exercise and trained to care their body and mind.
Children are sharing things and creating natural healthy peer group.
Children have learned to talk politely with respect to all people.
They feel empathy for others.
They are becoming more adjustable and caretaking each other.
I have learned how to bring up a baby from 1.5 years as a mother.
I have learned to shed my ego before children and making love as the instrument to train them.’’
