Hello everyone!
Today was the third week of our latest project, Amma's Angel. We had an unexpected turnout today. There were around sixty-four children! Almost three times of what we had last week.
The kids were, as always, very enthusiastic. We had to be on our toes all the time to keep up with them!
The class started by lighting the lamp and chanting of "Om Amriteshwaryai Namah" followed by dhyana shloka.
The previous week's lessons were revised and the children were taught basic counting today. After this, there was a small educational game wherein the kids were given instructions like "Stand up! Sit down! Turn to your right! " etc. This was mainly to get them accustomed to basic sentences in English. Many of the kids were very well versed with these sentences! The games session followed this. The kids love ring-a-ring-a-roses, so we play that every week. In addition, we had another popular game 'Oranges and Lemons'. They loved this too.
A snack break of biscuits was given to them. After the break it was lessons time. The children were divided into groups based upon their level of education. Each group had a volunteer to teach them. The younger ones were taught 'ABCD..', the elder ones were assisted wherever they had difficulties and so on.
Soon it was time for lunch. We sang "Om Namah Shivaya" in the end again accompanied by the kids' claps.
Due to Amma's ever flowing grace, each week is proving to be better than the previous one! We too learn so many subtle lessons of innocence, humility and many more while teaching the kids.
Their eagerness to study and learn is immense. We ought to learn so many things from them.
Please feel free to join us and express any ideas to improvise this project.
Always in Amma's love,
AYUDH Mumbai.
