Exam Circular

EXAM 2010-2011

THANK YOU PARENTS

FOR YOUR ENTHUSIASTIC PARTCIPATION IN

THE EXAMS HELD ON 23.1.2011 AND 5.2.2011

This exam was a tool to gauge the level of understanding of the students – what we teach and what is the output on paper, what is understood and digested – well enough to put it in practice in their writing skills.

THE EXAM RESULTS ARE THE FRUIT OF THESE SINCERE EFFORTS

As we checked the papers, it was indeed heartening to note that the training of the past 6 months has greatly influenced the students writing skills. Their expression of ideas has improved greatly, with the usage of thesaurus and vocabulary taught in the classes.

The aim of TEJAL’S CREATIVE WRITING CLASSES is to enable the child to spell out his thoughts in a clear, logical sequence of ideas, adding a touch of imagination in fluent language. I FEEL WE HAVE SUCCEDED IN THIS TO A CERTAIN EXTENT.

In continuance with our efforts, in the direction of flowering the writing skills of our students, we will now be conducting –

TEJAL’S CREATIVE WRITING SKILLS CERTIFICATE EXAM – LEVEL 1

TEJAL’S CREATIVE WRITING SKILLS CERTIFICATE EXAM – LEVEL 2

The exam will be conducted in September and January. It will be compulsory for the students to appear for the exam. On passing out, they will be awarded certificates.

We believe that these exams will go a long way in fulfilling every parents desire to see the child’s writing skills flourish. Passing each level will enable each child to cross the obstacles of self doubt and hesitation and MAKE WRITING A JOY.

WISH YOU ALL THE BEST!!!!!

Parents do visit our blog www.livelaughlearnwithtejal.blogspot or google Tejal Mehta’s Creative Writing Classes. All our students’ exemplary work and photographs have been posted. We will greatly appreciate your comments and suggestions.

My mother

Mothers are our best friends. She helps us in everything we do. God has made

mothers to take care of children. Even my mother is very caring. Her name is

Rachna.

My mother takes care of everyone in my family. When my grandfather

slipped in the washroom as the ground was wet, he got a hand problem. He

could not lift up his hand. Then my mother asked him to do hand exercises and

touch the ceiling. Day after day he kept on doing and this is how now he can lift

his hand properly. She has a very jovial and cheerful nature. She is a very good

painter,and interior designer. She has designed my brother’s, my sister's and my

study table. She has won many gold medals. Every year her sister and she

play Navratri in school and win First Prize. She is the one who has taught us

good morals of Life. Because of her knowledge and intelligence we could achieve and learn many new things.

I am very thankful to God to give me such a loving,affectionate,polite,tolerant,

considerate and understanding mother. My mother is the best mother in the

whole world.

-Shreya

In our life many people play an important role, first are our parents and then our teacher.

They not only make us play but also teach us good habits and make us good human

beings. They also impart knowledge to us. My favourite teacher is Kavita Miss.

She is very sincere and dedicated towards her work.Before she came in our school

we were only taught Art & nothing else. But when she came she was so hardworking and

industrious that we were taught craft, fabric painting and many more things.

In class she never shouts at us. if ever we do not understand something, she affectionately

calls us & explains it to us. Her approach towards all the children in class is very loving

and that is why we all are very fond of her.She is very tolerant to us as whenever we throw

tantrums or misbehave in class she is always calm and patient.She is also very sweet &

cool tempered.

We have a lot of fun on trips because of her cheerful and jovial nature. She

also has a good sense of humor.

I am very happy & lucky to get a teacher like her who is very kind.compassionate,

generous and warm hearted.She is a true Angel.

letter describing a trek

Dear Aashna,

Yesterday it was an amazing experience at Sanjay Gandhi National Park. I would like to share a few exciting moments with you.

Our departure from school was at 8.30 a.m. by bus and we reached there at 9.30 a.m. At first when we saw the monkeys we got scared and excited because some of the monkeys had jumped on our bus. After we got out of our bus, the teachers gave us some instructions. We walked a little & soon reached the Kaneri Caves where we saw carved paintings. We took our lunch near a river.

My mother had given me two boxes of Maggi noodles, one for my friends and the other for me. We all shared our lunch with each other. It was nearly a 3.5 km trek.We all were so tired that we could not stand on our feet. But after lunch when our teacher allowed us to get wet in the nearby spring, we shrieked out with joy.The feel of water on our body relieved all our stress. We played andsplashed water on each other,we all were fully soaked with water.It was a thrilling experience.After the bath we felt as fresh as flowers & now we were ready to move on.

The journey back to the bus was not so tiring as we were so eager to reach home. In the bus we sang songs,plated games like Dumb charades and talked a lot. We reached school at 4.30 p.m. The minute our bus stopped all the children let out a high pitched whoop of joy.This was my best knowledgeable & exciting trek till date.

I wished even you would be there than i would have had more fun. Ihope that next year you will also join us and make it more joyful than what it was this year. Give my regards to Uncle and Aunty.

Your Loving Friend
