LITERATI, the English Association of Peet Memorial Training College, Mavelikara, is a vibrant collective of individuals passionate about creativity, imagination, and language in all its forms. The association has been consistently organizing a variety of literary programmes aimed at nurturing and enhancing the creative and intellectual abilities of students. For the first season of the Mock Press, an overwhelming response was received, with enthusiastic participation from students across all optionals. This event provides a unique platform for students with imaginative minds and a flair for articulate expression to step into the roles of others and voice their thoughts confidently. The third season of this captivating programme was conducted on 30 September 2024 at 1:30 p.m. in the college auditorium. The event was convened by Dr. Alie Molly Varghis and Dr. Velayudhan Nair T, with Sethulekshmi T and Vismaya Vinod serving as the student coordinators. In the Mock Press event, participant...

From 22/9/25 (Monday) to 27/9/25 (Saturday), I focused my teaching in Standard VIII, Division A on the unit Solution of Equations. I covered multiple topics with specific lesson plans and periods throughout the week. On 22/9/25 (Monday, Day 25), I taught Period 6 using Lesson Plan 34 on the topic Different kinds of Change Problems. I handled class 6A, delivered the lesson, and emphasized student participation in solving problems. On 23/9/25 (Tuesday, Day 26), I conducted Period 3 with Lesson Plan 35 covering the topic Multiple and Part. I observed that the class went well, with students understanding the concept easily and showing cooperation. On 24/9/25 (Wednesday, Day 27), I managed Periods 3 & 5, using Lesson Plan 36 for Multiple and Part, Algebraic Methods, and Lesson Plan 37 in a substitution hour for Algebraic Methods. I noted active student participation and received guidance from Elizabeth Miss. On 25/9/25 (Thursday,Day 28),I taught lesson plan 38 on the topic problems usin...

  Week 6 of my teaching practice was an enrich­ingly productive stretch focused on the unit Solutions of Equations for Standard VIII, Division A. The week began with introducing the chapter on adding, subtracting, multiplication & division of equations (Day 23), where I handled a substitution class for 8A and received valuable feedback from Aswarya Miss on Lesson Plan 32, which boosted my confidence in managing the class and making the sessions interactive. On Day 24, I taught Lesson Plan 33 on Different kinds of change in the 3rd period, witnessing attentive participation and lively Q&A, followed by involvement in the school’s Kalolsavam preparations and taking charge of the Red House, which gave me hands‑on experience in extracurricular leadership. 

This week, I focused on teaching polygons to Class VIII‑A, covering a range of subtopics. On Day 19 (Monday), I taught Problems on Outer Angles (Lesson Plan 26). Day 20 (Wednesday) was about Regular Polygons and their properties (Lesson Plan 27). On Day 21 (Thursday), I guided students through the Construction of Regular Polygons (Lesson Plan 28,29). Finally, on Day 22 (Friday), I handled Problems on Regular Polygons (Lesson Plan 30). Each lesson built on the previous one, helping students deepen their understanding of polygons. My teaching experience this week was engaging and interactive. Students actively participated in discussions, solved problems confidently, and enjoyed quizzes and word puzzles during substitution periods. I made sure to clear their doubts and gave extra home activities for reinforcement. Their enthusiasm and cooperation made the classes smooth and productive. A highlight of the week was the Fire Force Unit visit on Day 21, which provided an eye‑opening emergenc...

 I have created an interactive teaching tool to help Class VIII students grasp the concept of exterior angles of polygons. The working model demonstrates the theorem: "The sum of exterior angles of any polygon is 360°". A bird holds a board displaying the theorem, and movable cut-out pieces (tied with threads) represent the exterior angles of triangles, quadrilaterals, and pentagons. When arranged in a circle, these angles form a complete 360° angle, visually proving the theorem. To use the model, explain the concept of exterior angles, demonstrate with a triangle or polygon, and show how the angles fit into a full circle. Repeat with other polygons to reinforce the concept. This hands-on model helps students understand the exterior-angle sum property intuitively and interactively.
