Mar 22, 2024 - Grade 6 (Friday)

Hari Om Parents,

  This is a brief summary of our activities on Friday, March 22nd, 2024. Surprisingly there were only very few children who attended last week's session. We watched the movie "Little Krishna" in class. We then quizzed the children on what they had learnt on Mahabharata so far. Some of the questions included:

• Name 5 generals from the Pandava army
  
• Who led the Pandava army and why was he chosen as the Pandava Generalissimo?
  
• What was the significance of vyuha's or the army formations?
  
• Why was Bhishma not perturbed when Lord Krishna dashed forward towards him with his discus in hand?
  

The children enjoyed the activity and were able to remember the incidents and provided correct answers. For each correct response, they received a small gift.

The next topic that is assigned to them is "Saints of India". The assignment sheet has been shared in the google classroom.

The children can make a powerpoint presentation or a poster board with the following details

• Life of the Saint (their life journey from young age onwards)
• From the teachings of the Saint, what was one key philosophical message that you liked
• Mention how you will adopt and follow the key message in your life

The presentation should be about 5 minutes.If the children prefer to use powerpoint, please have them complete the slides and post it in google classroom before their assigned dates.

Arathi: Our class recited the arathi and pledge.

Please have the children do their daily prayers regularly and also practice the ślokas and Gita chanting.

Thank you! See you back on Friday April 5, 2024.

Pranāms,
Viji Lakshmi Hari and Anupama Sivakumar
