Luv and Kush,3 Yrs,Nagpur
Luv and Kush are twins..Luv is 2 mins elder to Kush..I saw them first time when they were a few months old..neways I met them again when they were about 3 yrs old..those days we were posted in Nagpur..I used to go to thier home everyday to play with them after my classes..one day all 3 of us were playing cricket when suddenly Luv dropped the ball and the ball went and hit against a bush...I immediately went there and took out the ball and asked Luv to say "sorry" to the bush as he had accidentlly hurt the leaves..then I made both of them undertsand about the fact that even plants get hurt and can feel the pain...Luv is quite an introvert..and Kush is just the opposite...we started playing again..and this time Kush had hit the ball against the plants..so he went and said, "sorry plants"!!!I was quite impressed..the moment I turned my back he kicked the plants and said.."sorry plants"..I was quite astonished..I said "kush you are hurting them, kid...and to that he replied"but didi you asked me to apologise..I have already done that....I was completely speechless..Luv had learnt very quickly..but at the same time Kush ,as he was a very naughty kid ...he used my words in a different sense...everytime we used to play cricket..he used to simply go and kick the plants and say sorry....!!!kids will be kids I tell you!!

Afra.N,8 Yrs,Chennai
I joined a Islamic school called "Crescent Matriculation Higher Secondary School for Girls"on 7th Jan this year in Chennai...as one of the Primary wing teachers..I had asked my students to write a composition on 4th Feb
about "My Favourite Teacher"...one of the childs wrote it and brought it on 6th....
I never knew that somebody would write about me...I was almost in tears when I read the composition..there are some grammatical mistakes..but I have purposely not corrected them..just to get that real essance everytime I go through it!!!now below is an exact copy of her composition...
P.S..(for those who dont know).."Jyoti Rupa" is my official name....
My Favourite Teacher
My favourite teacher is Ms. Jyoti Rupa.She teaches us english,social studies and computer science.She teaches us very well and explain the subjects with examples.She is so kind to us.She looks neat and fair.She is not so strict and forgives our naughtiness with a smile.She is from orissa.but she looks like a neighbour-hood aunty.If I give correct answers,she asks others to appericiate me and clap for me.I'am also doing some silly mischievious things in the class and make her upset.Today onwards I try to avoid them and get a good name from her and from pther teachers.Then only she will remember me,if she goes to orissa also.
I was overwhelmed..i felt so proud...just dint know how to react..and what to tell her..I gave her a tight hug and kissed her..and asked everybody to stand up and clap for her...Mashaalaah I am blessed to have students like these thats all I can say !!!
