</b></center></div><br />
<center><b><br />
</b></center> <center>Thank you, teacher,<br />
for being my life's role model.<br />
When I consider all you've taught me<br />
and reflect on the kind of person you are,<br />
I want to be like you—<br />
smart, interesting and engaging,<br />
positive, confident, yet unpretentious.<br />
I want to be like you—<br />
well-informed and easy to understand,<br />
thinking with your heart as well as your head,<br />
gently nudging us to do our best,<br />
with sensitivity and insight.<br />
I want to be like you—<br />
giving your time, energy and talent<br />
to ensure the brightest possible future<br />
for each of us.<br />
Thank you, teacher<br />
For giving me a goal to shoot for:<br />
I want to be like you!</center> <center><i>By Joanna Fuchs</i></center><center><i> </i></center><center><i></i></center><center><i> </i></center><center><i>-- X P Students </i></center><center><br />

It was His sixth day of 'overtime' and He knew that this was a tremendous responsibility for teachers would touch the lives of so many impressionable young children. An angel appeared to Him and said, "You are taking a long time to figure this one out."</div><div align="left">"Yes," said the Lord, " but have you read the specs on this order?"</div><div align="left"><span style="background-color: yellow;">TEACHER:</span></div><div align="left">…must stand above all students, yet be on their level<br />
... must be able to do 180 things not connected with the subject being taught<br />
... must run on coffee and leftovers,<br />
... must communicate vital knowledge to all students daily and be right most of the time<br />
... must have more time for others than for herself/himself<br />
... must have a smile that can endure through pay cuts, problematic children, and worried parents<br />
... must go on teaching when parents question every move and others are not supportive<br />
... must have 6 pair of hands.</div><div align="left">"Six pair of hands, " said the angel, "that's impossible"<br />
"Well, " said the Lord, " it is not the hands that are the problem. It is the three pairs of eyes that are presenting the most difficulty!"</div><div align="left">The angel looked incredulous, " Three pairs of eyes...on a standard model?"</div><div align="left">The Lord nodded His head, " One pair can see a student for what he is and not what others have labeled him as. Another pair of eyes is in the back of the teacher's head to see what should not be seen, but what must be known. The eyes in the front are only to look at the child as he/she 'acts out' in order to reflect, " I understand and I still believe in you", without so much as saying a word to the child."</div><div align="left">"Lord, " said the angel, " this is a very large project and I think you should work on it tomorrow".</div><div align="left">"I can't," said the Lord, " for I have come very close to creating something much like Myself. I have one that comes to work when he/she is sick.....teaches a class of children that do not want to learn....has a special place in his/her heart for children who are not his/her own.....understands the struggles of those who have difficulty....never takes the students for granted..."</div><div align="left">The angel looked closely at the model the Lord was creating.<br />
"It is too soft-hearted, " said the angel.</div><div align="left">"Yes," said the Lord, " but also tough, You can not imagine what this teacher can endure or do, if necessary".</div><div align="left">"Can this teacher think?" asked the angel.</div><div align="left">"Not only think," said the Lord,. "but reason and compromise."</div><div align="left">The angel came closer to have a better look at the model and ran his finger over the teacher's cheek.</div><div align="left">"Well, Lord, " said the angel, your job looks fine but there is a leak. I told you that you were putting too much into this model. You can not imagine the stress that will be placed upon the teacher."</div><div align="left">The Lord moved in closer and lifted the drop of moisture from the teacher's cheek. It shone and glistened in the light.</div><div align="left">"It is not a leak," He said, "It is a tear."</div><div align="left">"A tear? What is that?" asked the angel, "What is a tear for?"</div><div align="left">The Lord replied with great thought, " It is for the joy and pride of seeing a child accomplish even the smallest task. It is for the loneliness of children who have a hard time to fit in and it is for compassion for the feelings of their parents. It comes from the pain of not being able to reach some children and the disappointment those children feel in themselves. It comes often when a teacher has been with a class for a year and must say good-bye to those students and get ready to welcome a new class."</div><div align="left">"My, " said the angel, " The tear thing is a great idea...You are a genius!!"<br />
The Lord looked somber, "I didn't put it there."</div></div>ananhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15374862017316129353noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018148816852441290.post-72831793127221146772011-03-25T14:32:00.000+05:302011-04-02T21:00:49.984+05:30You Can Heal Your Life<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="MsoNormal">-Louis L Hay </div><div class="MsoNormal">In the infinity of life, where I am</div><div class="MsoNormal">All is perfect, whole and complete</div><div class="MsoNormal">And yet life is ever changing</div><div class="MsoNormal">There is no beginning and no end</div><div class="MsoNormal">only a constant cycling and recycling of substances and experiences.</div><div class="MsoNormal">Life is never stuck or static or stale.</div><div class="MsoNormal">For each moment is ever new and fresh.</div><div class="MsoNormal">I am one with very power that created me,</div><div class="MsoNormal">And this power has given me the power to create my own circumstances.</div><div class="MsoNormal">I rejoice in the knowledge that</div><div class="MsoNormal">I have the power of my own mind </div><div class="MsoNormal">to use in anyway I choose.</div><div class="MsoNormal">Every moment of life is a new beginning point,</div><div class="MsoNormal">as we move from the old.</div><div class="MsoNormal">This moment is a new beginning for me</div><div class="MsoNormal">Right here and Right now</div><div class="MsoNormal">All is Well in My World.</div></div>ananhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15374862017316129353noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018148816852441290.post-58823291008858913082011-03-17T12:38:00.001+05:302011-04-02T21:42:23.494+05:30SEMINAR ON GRANDPARENTS<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=34c034ac41&view=att&th=12ec2734f4062d5a&attid=0.1&disp=attd&realattid=f_glc7ukpj0&zw</div>ananhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15374862017316129353noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018148816852441290.post-88689576937508859902011-02-16T18:23:00.006+05:302011-04-02T21:42:23.497+05:30KNOW YOUR EXAM<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="MsoTitle" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">ENGLISH DOSSIER SERIES</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">S.S.L.C.

ANTON CHEKHOV<br />
TIMES OF RUSSIA<br />
MINOR OFFICIAL FOUND DEAD<br />
Moscow,13 April 2009 : A minor official<br />
named Ivan Tcherviakoff ,43, was found<br />
dead on a sofa in his house at Palace<br />
Avenue. Report says that he accidently<br />
sneezed on General Brizjaloff , of the<br />
Department of Highways , in the opera<br />
house recently. “He was under pressure” said<br />
his wife .General had forgiven him but he<br />
was always thinking of the silly incident.”<br />
She added. “He died due to a mental<br />
breakdown said” General Brizjaloff at a<br />
press conference. His wife and two children<br />
are now under the care and protection of the high officials.<br />
The death of Ivan Tcherviakoff was a shocking<br />
news to all. So the media persons of Russia rushed<br />
to the hospital where the dead body was kept.<br />
Most of the Government officials gathered there<br />
including General Brizjaloff. Here is the<br />
conversation between General Brizjaloff and a<br />
Reporter.<br />
Reporter : Sir, I am from Moscow News.<br />
Brizjaloff: O.K. What do you want ?<br />
Reporter : I want to know something about<br />
Tcherviakoff .<br />
Brizjaloff : Oh ! poor fellow ! He died due to a<br />
nervous breakdown .<br />
Reporter : Do you have any connection with him?<br />
Brizjaloff : Ya , two days back he accidently sneezed<br />
on me and he asked for apology.<br />
Reporter : Then ?<br />
Brizjaloff : I apologized But he did n’t satisfy.<br />
He was thinking and thinking again.<br />
And at last....died.<br />
Reporter: Oh! What a pity ! O.K. Sir... See you !<br />
General Brizjaloff : Bye !<br />
After some days the reporter went to<br />
Tcherviakoff’s house to meet his family. They<br />
were very sad. Look at the conversation and try<br />
to complete it.<br />
The following tips will help you.<br />

Reporter : Good Morning Madam !<br />

Then , Tcherviakoff’s wife showed him the<br />
diary of Tcherviakoff .<br />
Diary<br />
( Of the day he sneezed )<br />
Oh! It was a horrible day for me. I sneezed<br />
at the back of General Brizjaloff. It was quite<br />
accidental. But General Brizjaloff was angry .<br />
There was a malice in his eyes. I approached<br />
him two times , but each time he ....was<br />
indifferent . My wife told me to ask for apology<br />
again. So tomorrow I can do it.<br />
Diary<br />
Oh! What can I do ? The General was busy<br />
with his petitioners and he scolded me. He said<br />
“What Nonsense...”He did not allow me to<br />
speak. That means he is angry. Oh! I am getting<br />
mad. The only thing I can do now is to write a<br />
letter to him.<br />
You know , Tcherviakoff did not write the letter.<br />
He thought.. and thought..and finally decided to<br />
meet the general.<br />
Now ,Have you thought of the letter ? Let’s see the likely letter.<br />
12 April 2009<br />
General Brizjaloff<br />
23/2<br />
Moscow 12<br />
Respected Sir,<br />
I am Tcherviakoff, a minor official.I am the man<br />
who sneezed on Your Excellency. Please forgive me Sir. I<br />
know that you are angry with me. Really, the mistake is<br />
mine .So I request you to give pardon.<br />
Faithfully<br />
Ivan Tcherviakoff<br />
Now think of the reply of General Brizjaloff<br />
write the likely letter.<br />
and<br />

What a wonderful experience it is. I never thought of such a chance in my life. I<br />
can’t believe this. Everywhere I am the hero. In the school assembly our HM<br />
congratulated me for my bravery. The police is very thankful to me for catching that<br />
notorious burglar. All my friends look at me with admiration. But it’s quite funny. God<br />
knows my real condition. I was desperate to save my life from the devil. And it was a<br />
horrible night. God I can’t spend one more night like that.<br />

were travelling in collided with a speeding car being driven by a teenage<br />
girl, the police said. The children, mostly studying in kindergarten<br />
classes of the Ingraham Institute School at Raj Nagar were returning to<br />

a sixteen-year-old girl collided with the auto rickshaw.<br />
According to eye witnesses, the car was coming from Kamala Nehru<br />
Nagar towards the Hapur Road. The girl apparently lost control and<br />
collided with the auto rickshaw. Fourteen school children, the driver of<br />
the auto rickshaw, and the teenage girl were injured in the accident.<br />
They were all taken to the hospital where the condition of the children<br />
and the auto rickshaw driver was said to be critical. The teenage girl<br />

Does the news report answer all the ‘’Wh’’<br />
questions?<br />
Does the news report has a head line?<br />
Is the head line brief and clear?<br />
Does the head line have a connection with the first<br />
sentence of the report?<br />
Does it have a proper conclusion?<br />
Compare your news report with the following<br />
Dutch put mental strength ahead of skill for final<br />
Ellis park 08.Jul.After defeat in their country’s two previous World Cup<br />
finals, the Netherlands’ players are determined not to put lavish skill ahead<br />
of single-minded focus a third time on Sunday.<br />
The Dutch reached the 1974 and 1978 finals with some of the football’s<br />
greatest ever players but each time the host nation overturned the strutting<br />
Orange.<br />
After Tuesday’s 3-2 win over Uruguay set up a final against Germany or<br />
Spain, coach Bert van Marwick is determined to make sure that a six-game<br />
winning streak at this tournament does not bring out the traditional Dutch<br />
weakness of assuming the next victory is a foregone conclusion.<br />
Fifteen killed in bus crash.<br />
Toledo City 08.July:Fifteen people were killed and dozens injured<br />
when an overloaded bus crashed into a concrete wall in the central<br />
Philippines, police said Sunday. Police said the brakes of the bus<br />
failed, forcing the driver to slam the vehicle into the wall along a<br />
highway in Toledo City in Cebu province, 585 kilometres south of<br />
Manila.The bus was negotiating a blind curve when the accident<br />
occurred.Investigators said the bus, which was allowed to carry only<br />
53 passengers, was carrying more than 60 people at the time of the<br />
accident.Ten victims died on the spot and five others died while being<br />
treated in hospital. Forty-eight others suffered various injuries.<br />
Hope you have gone through the reports.<br />
1. Did you notice the headlines?<br />
2. Are they brief and clear?<br />
3. Does it have connection with the first sentence of<br />
the news report?<br />

DIARY<br />
Module<br />
I was a small cherry seed. A small boy Rakesh planted me in a shady corner of his<br />
garden. I grew into a small cherry tree. He watered me everyday and<br />
protected me with pebbles. Rakesh and his Grandfather loved me very much.<br />
One day a goat ate all my leaves. Rakesh was very upset and Grandfather<br />
consoled him . A few days later a grass cutting woman cut me into two.<br />
Grandfather and Rakesh concluded that I would die soon. This disappointed<br />
them. They loved me that much.<br />
See Rakesh’s condition.<br />
At that night he writes a diary. Can we read the diary ?<br />
Diary<br />
3rd November 2010<br />
Wednesday<br />
What a sad day it was. I don’t think my cherry tree will grow up again.<br />
A grass cutting woman entered the garden and killed my tree. How cruel she was<br />
when she cut it into two. I hate her. Grandpa scolded her but the damage can not<br />
be repaired by this. He too was very sad. He couldn’t even console me. We think<br />
it will die soon. Oh! it was my best friend. I can’t think of my garden without it.<br />
God, please save my tree.<br />

A horrible day, really a horrible day. It remains a nightmare to me. Ger-<br />
mans shattered my dream of Argentina holding the World Cup. Even a world<br />
class player like Messi couldn’t win the match for us. I don’t know where my<br />
strategies went wrong. I can’t believe this defeat. My team with so many talented<br />
players really deserved a victory. Now a question looms large before me - whether<br />
I should continue or not. Anyway I can’t sleep.<br />

......................................................................... <br />
Practice makes perfect..... <br />
But nobody's perfect...... <br />
so why practice? <br />
......................................................................... <br />
If it's true that we are here to help others, <br />
then what exactly are the others here for? <br />
......................................................................... <br />
Since light travels faster than sound, <br />
people appear bright until you hear them speak. <br />
......................................................................... <br />
Money is not everything. <br />
There's MasterCard & Visa. <br />
......................................................................... <br />
Success is a relative term. <br />
It brings so many relatives. <br />
......................................................................... <br />
Never put off the work till tomorrow <br />
what you can put off today. <br />
........................................................................ <br />
"Your future depends on your dreams" <br />
So go to sleep <br />
........................................................................ <br />
There should be a better way to start a day <br />
Than waking up every morning <br />
......................................................................... <br />
"Hard work never killed anybody" <br />
But why take the risk <br />
......................................................................... <br />
"Work fascinates me" <br />
I can look at it for hours <br />
......................................................................... <br />
The more you learn, the more you know, <br />
The more you know, the more you forget <br />
The more you forget, the less you know <br />
So.. why learn. <br />
......................................................................... <br />
A bus station is where a bus stops. <br />
<br />
A train station is where a train stops. <br />
<br />
On my desk, I have a work station.... <br />
