Precious time i spent with my FAMILY in lockdown

Due to the pandemic there was a nation-wide lockdown. Everyone was in their homes and nobody was allowed to go outside. However, the lockdown gave us an opportunity to spend more time with our family. It gave us a chance to improve our relationships with everyone. Earlier we used to barely sit and talk with our family members. If there were four people in a room everyone used to be obsessed with their work and phones and they didn’t have time to talk or play something with each other. The people were not able to take out even 30 minutes for themselves and their family members. But when the government declared lockdown, everything was shut and nobody was allowed to go outside. So everyone was stuck inside their houses and everyone started spending time with each other as they realized the importance of family because they were with each other for a long period of time. I also realized the importance of my family and I spent a lot of time with my family members during the lockdown. Before the lockdown, I had my school and homework so I was not able to spend time with my family. But during the lockdown I had a lot of free time and I spent as much time as I could with my family. I played many games with my family like carom board. Earlier when I used to play carom board, I used to lose every time but during the lockdown, some kind of magic came into my hands I started winning every single time. My mother also encouraged me to write and draw as I didn’t have time to pursue my hobbies and talents before lockdown. My mother gave me some topics and I wrote paragraphs on them. She also suggested me some drawings and I drew them. I also played cards with my family and we enjoyed a lot. My father and grandmother told me some games they used to play when they were little children. They also told me some stories about their childhood. We also browsed some old photos of mine when I was 3 to 4 years old. We looked at those photos and laughed and remembered some old memories. The lockdown played a major part in my life as it brought me closer to my family.

Importance of reading books

Importance of reading books Books are really important to us. The word BO OK itself stands for Big Ocean Of Knowledge. Books teach us everything. They give us knowledge and they are the reason behind. It is very true that ‘A book holds a house of gold.’ It can’t be compared to anything because it is priceless. Books don’t teach us the material in our syllabus only but they also help us to improve our vocabulary and writing skills. It’s not like that you will find books on only one topic; you can find books on any topic you want. You will get more appropriate content in books rather than on internet; and obviously it is better and recommended to read books instead of e-books. You get detailed and nicely explained content in books for better understanding. At some places, gadgets are not allowed but a sheet of paper or a book is allowed everywhere. Instead of having a collection of mobile phones and laptops, we all can have a collection of books. Remember one thing, ’You might leave ...

IMPORTANCE OF EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Extra-curricular activities are the activities which are not included or related to academics or exams. They are organized to help students make themselves stress-free and give them a small break from academics. They also enhance or take out our hidden talent. These activities are not just based on one field, but they are based on everything from singing to dancing, creative writing to calligraphy, drawing to debates and much more. Many students who were once toppers become failures because they never tried something different and were most of the time stressed. Extra-curricular activities give us a platform to show our talent. According to me, everyone should try everything and enjoy .-VANYA GUPTA

If I were the current education minister of India

Education has become really important in today's world. There must be time to time changes in it also to make it better. If I were the current education minister of India, first of all, I would abolish homework. Instead, I would give the students’ learning work because study is of no use if they forget it once they grow up. I would involve the students’ more in practical work rather than theory. I would give the order to each and every school to teach the students’ to write with both hands so that they can be multi-tasking. I would just keep online classes thrice a week so that the students’ have lass strain on their eyes and the rest of the days, the students’ will learn what was being taught to them in the class. During these classes, Iwill make sure that the teachers are seeing every student and are having an interactive session. I would make education compulsory for twelve years and would provide free education to the national students. I would also reduce the burden of ...
