Hidden talents!

Earlier this week, we received a video, pictures and messages from our teacher, Ravi Soni. The pictures/video were taken when the students worked on a story of a bird, her two children and a crow - and while the students worked on the text, Ravi drew for them on the board. We were surprised to learn that our teacher has such a talent for arts!

Our students have asked us if they can do some painting in class (inspired by Ravi's drawings maybe?), and we agreed. Learning is not all about letters, grammar and numbers. Children in India are often not encouraged to be creative and express themselves and are often subjected to strict rules growing up. So we will give them the opportunity to be a bit creative and play with colours, and hope this will make them smile, laugh, give them a new experience and build their self esteem and confidence.
