WHAT IS THE REQUIREMENT OF A 21ST CENTURY GROWING STUDENT



WHAT IS THE REQUIREMENT OF A 21ST CENTURY GROWING STUDENT
A matured student or citizen is expected to do multitasking in studies or in job or in business or in society to sustain in this fast moving society / nurtured So he needs to be natural in the way, out put is required.
The quote said by Bal Sahitya Karyashala is very relevant here. When we talk of the earthen pot student can be exposed to the type of clay used, water used and concept of pottery making. Later on it can become a hobby too.
Coming to the second aspect of curiosity, how does it cool water? Does it cool when we keep it in sun or in a room or in a gallary or if we cover it with a wet cloth or make a cover around it, with a sutli what is the science behind it?
(a) The earthen pot is porous.
(b) The water coming out of these microscopic pores evaporates. 

(c) For evaporation of water drop lets on the surface of the earthen pot, it absorbs some heat from inside water to change its state from liquid to gaseous, thus cooling the water inside (LATENT HEAT
OF EVAPORATION).
Further discussing the third aspect: that is value to be inculcated. The above picture is self explanatory. Moving ahead with another aspect is to imbibe the development of core skills among the students.
These are not ornaments which can be put over for beauty, but these are
qualities to be embedded in oneself, to be bloomed differently at different
situations. So needs to be inculcated from the childhood stories of
THIRSTY, CROW and during further growth & different situation.

Simultaneously, a serious question comes in mind, why the crow

has to search for water?
We are not serious about nature.
(a) Polluting it with plastics
(b) Cutting trees & not replanting them.
(c) Underground water is decreasing as a result.
(d) Air pollution, decrease in drinking water, global warming.
This is a threatening for our future generation.

When the students really feel the drastic future, they will involve themselves in making a better tomorrow. No need to do something extra, only do not throw garbage here and there, do not cut trees for pollution free air, increase in under ground water level and prevent soil erosion.
A little bit on every one's part can make our coming generation happy and
healthy. Lastly, when we talk about THE CROW, are we realising that it is becoming an extinct species.
Can we take up a study, why?
Thus multitasking, which is a requirement of 21st Century can be achieved only if we implant SCIENTIFIC METHOD, CORE SKILLS, VALUES and PROBLEM SOLVING ATTITUDE in and around, among
them.

Better ways to engage kids during vacation time



Better ways to engage kids during vacation time
Engaging children is easy when you know how.
Use Color
Colorful visuals are essential for engaging children, especially young children. Think of the story books you loved when you were a child - I bet they had beautiful colorful pictures, or else the story gave you a wonderful colorful image in your mind
Generate an idea box
Brainstorm ideas with your children about what they can do to overcome boredom. Write down their suggestions, and put them in an empty box.
Design a treasure hunt
Hide something like a coin or a sticker somewhere in the house. Give your kids a clue, and let them run wild trying to find it.
Let them play outside
Don’t forget how your parents kept you busy. Just give your child a ball and a stick, and let them run wild.
Build a fort
Give your child a few pillows and a blanket, and challenge them to turn the couch into a fort.
Play verbal games
If you have the energy to multitask, you can keep your child entertained while still getting things done. Take turns naming an animal for each letter of the alphabet.
Create a scavenger hunt
You don’t need to make a whole list – just say, “Find me something that starts with the letter B,” and let them run around the house searching.
Make them do chores
This probably isn’t the one your child’s hoping you pick, but it’s good for them. If you’re going to clean the kitchen, make your children clean their rooms.
Let them play with a camera
Give your child a digital camera, and let them take pictures. They’ll stay distracted making selfies and videos long enough for you to get something done.
Suggest a science experiment
Let your kids discover the world. Teach or show them something about an object or their surroundings and let them explore it.
Happy summer vacation!
