LAST DAY

"The heart of a teacher is never forgotten." 

Today was my last day at this school, and it’s heart-wrenching to say goodbye to these little buds. To mark the occasion, I brought a cake, and we celebrated together with cake-cutting. The children gave heartfelt feedback, and we shared hugs and expressed our love for each other. Students are an invaluable source of energy for every teacher, and without them, a teacher feels incomplete.

Saying farewell is never easy, especially when you’ve grown so close to your students. Their enthusiasm and warmth have made this journey unforgettable. I’m deeply grateful for the moments we’ve shared and the lessons we’ve learned together. Wherever you are, my dear students, stay strong and face life with courage. You’ll always have a special place in my heart.

 Love, Shafina Teacher.

 

INNOVATIVE LESSON PLAN

 

MARCH PAST

A Memorable March Past Practice

On August 6th, we kicked off daily march past practices right after the 5th period. Organizing students into neat lines and ensuring they marched in unison was no easy feat, but we managed to get everyone moving smoothly. It took patience and careful coordination, but the sense of achievement at the end made it all worthwhile.

This experience taught us a lot about event organization and leadership. We now have a better understanding of how to run a sports meet and manage a group effectively. It was a valuable learning opportunity, and I feel more prepared for similar challenges in the future. Overall, it was a good day full of teamwork and learning.

STRESS BURSTER DAY

"Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax." – Mark Black

As my teaching internship approached its end, the tension and stress became overwhelming. I felt a deep sadness about leaving the school and my students. Then, unexpectedly, my friends organized a union meet. I was thrilled and excited, even though I had a set exam the next day. That break was exactly what I needed—it was a true stress-buster.

The support and camaraderie from my friends made all the difference during this stressful time. It reminded me of the importance of taking care of ourselves and leaning on others when we need it most. I am grateful for their unwavering support and love. Thank you for being my rock during this challenging period.
