Role of a teacher/As a teacher.....<br />
I do not know anything more fulfilling than being a<br />
Montessori Educator. I believe that investing in young<br />
lives is a calling and this gives a great sense of<br />
purpose to one’s life. It has liberated me from all<br />
kinds of prejudice that I had about children. My<br />
journey as a Montessorian at Anweshana has been a<br />
pleasant one thus far. The way children evolve has<br />
always made me wonder and has challenged my<br />
principles and proven me wrong over and again!<br />
Working with children has humbled me as a person<br />
and has enabled me to become a better parent. The<br />
changing traits in the children, at different stages, is<br />
just like the metamorphosis of a butterfly. In each<br />
period, we rediscover a growing being, but one who is<br />
quite different every time. I have been blessed to<br />
witness such transformation in my children and every<br />
child whom I have touched has loved me immensely<br />
and that’s what keeps me going. The best thing about<br />
being an educator is that you get to laugh every<br />
single day!<br />
My Journey At Anweshana<br />
When I joined Anweshana I was in Chrysanthemum. I<br />
had two friends, Harshita and Lara. My Aunties were<br />
Dhanalakshmi aunty and Reshmi aunty. There were<br />
25 children in Chrysanthemum. My Favourite activity<br />
was the spindle box.<br />
I like to wear colour dress every day. I then went to<br />
Aster. I still had Lara as my friend. In Aster we use to<br />
have our snack at 10:30A.M. In Aster my favourite<br />
activity was antonyms.<br />
On June 6th, 2018 I went to Dandelion. In Dandelion<br />
my friends are Ritisha and Harshita. I still miss my<br />
aunties.<br />
There are many trees in Anweshana.<br />

Christmas<br />
We celebrate Christmas, because Jesus was born on<br />
that day.<br />
We celebrated Christmas on Dec-21 because holidays<br />
started from Dec-22. We went to school around 9:00<br />
clock. There were some orphanage children coming.<br />
We had to present some materials to them. I<br />
presented Mesopotamian Civilization. This was there<br />
till 11:00 O clock. Then there was cultural program till<br />
12:00 O clock.<br />
Then it was lunch time. We had got one extra lunch<br />
box because they were coming. We had lunch. Then<br />
we went out to play. When we came back it was<br />
around 1:15. It was time for them to go. So we did a<br />
type of quiz.<br />
E.g. If they tell paint a picture of football ground, we<br />
had to act it. Now it was time to leave so we left.<br />

If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men. - Dr Maria Montessori
