In view of the fact, that this was the last visit to ashram. I have already prepared the test paper for my students to judge their overall learning skills. I have been teaching to two students, Bhushan and Sandeep. This time, one of my students was not present for the test. So I took test of only Sandeep. He was very happy to have the test on profit and loss lesson.
Since this lesson was taught to him before few weeks, he was requiring the revision of formulas but not explanation of the concepts. I liked that he just wanted to know the formula of profit and loss. Therefore, I made him write the formula and then he started answering the test.
The new thing that I observed in him is that he started reading the question before answering them. Firstly he was reading the question and then he was trying to understand to answer them. This was the skill that I have been trying to make him gain since the beginning of the learning session.
Also, he has adopted the skill of applying the formula to answer the mathematical question. He was able to use the formula of profit and loss to answer the question. For example, there is a question in which selling price and cost price was given. Also, selling price was greater than cost price. He understood that he is supposed to apply profit formula. He applied the formula correctly and substituted the data in the formula properly.
I feel that I have been successful in teaching the student. The student has adopted the skills of interpretation and understanding the lesson or concept. The learning outcome involved in this whole learning- teaching session is that I have become aware of my strength that I have capabilities of teaching the student with proper knowledge. I have also learned the skill of working collaboratively as I took many classes with my classmates, Dasom, Hyunju and Aditi.
The ethical implication involved in this activity is that this activity has helped in passing up the knowledge to the kids or students, who will further help the nation in development. Also, this activity is been undertaken with permission of ashram’s incharge and our CAS coordinator.
In end, I just want to say that this activity has been beneficial for everyone as it has helped me and my classmates in enhancing the skill of explaining, interpretation, management of time etc.

REFLECTION ON STUDENTS OF ASHRAM
Since many weeks, students of ashram are learning under my guidance. I have taught them many topics of different subjects such as Hindi poem, math lesson, English grammar etc. I have been teaching two students since the beginning of the task, Bhushan and Sandeep. Both have been great learners throughout the learning session. For this class my supervisor was Vijayalaxmi madam.
This time when I went, one of my students was not present, he went to his hometown. So I taught geometry to Sandeep. When I was teaching to him, I realized that lot many things he is able to do which he was unable to do before learning under my guidance. Earlier he was unable to do proper division, calculation of area and volume. This time when I introduced the math lesson and gave him the formula of rectangle so he himself was able to solve question. The best thing I liked about him was that I did not explain the question as he was trying on his own to understand.
The learning outcome is that I become aware that proper and regular guidance helps the student a lot in learning concepts. I have observed that Sandeep is not a student who believes in learning without understanding instead he has developed an attitude of understanding first and then learning it.
For upcoming task, I have planned a test on a math lesson, profit and loss. Which I have taught to both, Sandeep and Bhushan. The following table consists of the questions that I will ask them in upcoming class.

REFLECTION ON WALKATHON
Walkathon is a new activity which was held in my school. This activity gave chance to all the students of my school to be physically fit. Basically the organization of this activity was done by all DP students under the guidance of our CAS advisor, Jackson Joy. Different students had different role to perform such as arrangement of glucose, water ,first aid, doctors , ambulance etc.
The walk was of 5km for both MYP and DP students whereas the walk for PYP students was of 3km. However every student participated actively and had tried their level best to walk continuously without taking rest in between of the way.
Firstly, we DP students started the walk after listening to the rules and instruction. As we started we realized that it was not an easy task as we were getting tired a lot and our legs were paining. But still none of us stopped although everyone’s speed was differencing. Someone was ahead or someone behind.
When I started the walk I was very active for first 3km and I was walking at the same speed with my friend but after that I could not keep up with that same speed but I continued to walk.
My aim was to participate and complete the walk of 5km. I did not think of winning or losing instead I felt that participation by following rules and regulation is much more important.
The learning outcome is that I have understood that I have a strength to walk for 5km and more. Also I have come to know that walking collaboratively encourages and does not make me feel tired or an idea of giving up. The ethical issue involved in this activity is that it did not harm anyone nor it has polluted the environment. Instead it helped everyone in maintaining their health. This is a major issue of concern nowadays as everyone’s lifestyle is changing rapidly. Today everyone's attraction is towards fast-food, technology etc. The craze of games, exercises have been declining. Therefore Walkathon has given chance for everyone to be physically fit.
REFLECTION ON TEACHING STUDENTS OF ASHRAM
This time my two friends and I reached before all other friends so we started the class earlier than others under the supervision of Mrs. Purva Jha This time one of my students was not well so I had only one student to teach. To my surprise since last two weeks Bhushan has been very active in learning and listening to my guidance.
He had plans to learn mathematics so I started with the topic of Indices. Indices are the major topic that is needed to learn as it has its application in higher classes also. Since this was a new topic to him and also this was not taught in the class so I thought I should just introduce the lesson and teach few sums based on first concept.
Basically indices mean exponents, power and it is mainly called as raised to the power of. For example 52 will be read as 5 raised to the power 2.
My task was to teach him the meaning of exponent and what does it mean. So I explained him that power means the number of time base needs to be multiplied. In the above example, 5 is the base and 2 is the exponent or index. Therefore 5 needs to multiplied two times as power is 2.
This gave him clear idea and then as I gave him the few sums, he was able to solve. The difficulty level arises when base was in fraction. For example, (½)2. Here he was getting confused, so I solved few sums like that and explained it to him.
Then I gave him the questions based on same type. He solved all questions nicely. Then I felt relaxed and I ended the class.
The learning outcome is that I have understood that I am able to teach child in way, which is easy for him to understand. I have become aware that few concepts needs to be taught in slow speed and needs to be explained with different examples for better learning and understanding of the child. The ethical issue involved is that I am able to give knowledge to student, which will make him a good citizen of the country.

REFLECTION ON TEACHING STUDENTS OF ASHRAM
Another visit to ashram. This time we were supervised by our physics, chemistry teacher Mr. Prashant Pandey. When I went there, I realized that my students are happy to learn from me as they were eagerly waiting for me. They instantly told me that we want you to explain us the Hindi poem. They also commented that we like the way you explain. So I felt pleased and then I started explaining the poem, which was about that nothing can be gained easily in this world.
The poem was beautifully structured with very deep meaning. It says that cutting trees, making angry someone is very easy but planting a tree and making someone happy is very difficult. It also tells us that achieving things is not easy, one needs to go through the difficulties and obstacles to achieve fruitful response.
After explanation of this poem, I questioned them on many real and general aspects like what will happen if your mother wants you to get good marks? Also how will you keep her happy?
These questions helped him to gain better understanding of this poem. After the completion of this poem, I gave him the task of writing his own reflection on this poem.
On reading his reflection, I felt he has used his own real life experience and feelings to explain the meaning of poem.After this task, I taught him few problems on division and then we ended the class for that day.
The learning outcomes involved in this activity is that I become aware that every child has its own imagination, which does not need to be taught. I also became aware of his skill. Basically writing reflection is a task in my own curriculum. So I have just tried to teach him in that same manner. I learned that I have strength of explaining things to a child properly, which helps him a lot in his interpretation of various topics. I become aware of my strength as well as through this task, i developed a new skill of teaching. Also, the ethical implication involved in this task is that education is been promoted, which is beneficial for the development of child and nation as well.

REFLECTION ON ALL SCHOOL ACTIVITIES.
There were lot many activities in which I took part. For example, Teacher's Day celebration, inter-house Debate competition, Hindi Divas and Literacy day celebration.
All these activities gave me chance to enhance as well as acquire new skills.For Teacher's Day celebration,I acted as an organizer. I have organized all the events such as Fashion show by PYP students ,dance by MYP students, Quiz by a DP student. I have also given duties to various office barriers for sitting arrangement, cards for all teachers as well as I have given duty to all DP students to handle all students that day.All DP students took in-charge of teaching various different subjects to whole school.I taught various poems,songs based on Hindi subject.
I also did anchoring of whole event, which started at 9.10am and ended by 10.20am.
This was the first time that I did anchoring.Before real anchoring in school, I did lot of practice at home. I saw various video on you tube to understand how the anchors do their job.
As I have already practiced at home,I had lot of confidence while I was doing actual anchoring.After anchoring was done, I got lot many good comments from my teachers, which made me feel that I have done good job.
Inter-house debate competition gave me a new skill about how to keep the main points of debate in-front of audience, also type of tone and confidence required. Basically, I took part in debate competition for the first time, so I was unaware of many things such as how to attract audience towards my topic and How to prove it correct.
Hindi divas is a day, which is celebrated to give importance to our language.We all DP Hindi students gave various speeches and other students performed skit,poem etc. I gave vote of thanks to everyone, who helped directly and indirectly to make this event successful.

Literacy day celebration has involved every member of DYPIS. There were many events which took place for this celebration such as silent reading,essay writing competition,bookmarks making competition. In all these events I took part to show gratitude to our Literature.For silent reading, I had brought a book of Shiv khera and for bookmark making competition, I have got all materials from my house. I enjoyed the competition as while performing these task, I have learned many things like how to make use of craft materials for book mark, how to make selected specific points for debate etc.
The learning outcome is that I have been able to judge my strength and has acquired lot many skills such as speaking in front of everybody with audience, the way of convincing audience, an art of reading and making craft. I have become aware that fear decreases the chances of winning so I need to be confident every time. I also developed the skill of taking intiatives and planning of tasks.

REFLECTION ON AUGUST NEWSLETTER
This time, I have worked as a reporter and have reported about the things happening in the Diploma Programme such as CAS work( service work in ashram),Talent show, election, status of students involved in making TOK presentations and extended essay.
While reporting for the scenario of Diploma students, I felt that these days, they were too busy and tensed with the completion of the work assigned to them. For example making and giving TOK presentations, completion of extended essays.
Most students faced difficulty in completing their essay as some of them realized that their topic is not proper or they are unable to carry their research with that decided topic and there is a need to change the topic.
Some students went out of their town for the surveys and interviews.Because of which , they faced difficulty in completing their routine tasks.
But there were students, who have kept the deadline in their mind and have completed their essay on time and have submitted it to their advisors. At the same time, they have also given their TOK presentations to their teacher and have given it in the class also.
Even they also go to ashram for service work every Saturday for two hours and perform their tasks needfully. Even two of my classmates have taken part in the talent show, which was held in the school. Even, on 15th august, three students of diploma programme have become member of student council. Therefore everyone was involved in some or the other activity this month.
The learning outcome is that I became aware that, every one faces different kind of difficulty and one should just try to overcome it with easiness and should not lose hope. Once, even I was tensed with meeting of deadlines but as I started working with full pro activeness, I completed my essay and presentation on time .

CAMPAIGNING FOR REMOVAL OF FEMALE INFANTICIDE
Female infanticide is very common in many place of the country. People wishes for male child and adopt various method to have male child. Some questions always arise in my mind, such as how can a female abort a female child? How is she unable to understand the happiness a female child gives? How can she be so unkind to a new unborn baby? How can she forget that she herself is a female? Why doesn’t she think that if she would have been aborted by her parents during her birth time then?
Sometimes I think that she might be asked to do such crime under the dominance of her family or husband but still I think, doesn’t she have the dare to make her family understand? These all questions remain unanswered forever.
I also think that this happens mainly because of the poor thinking; people do not have the ability to think broadly. They think for themselves and for their own fortune. Why don’t they think that getting every baby is important and cheerful phase of life? There should not be any discrimination between genders. God have made genders for the different reasons such as different genders (males and females) act as a couple and stand in every obstacle together, they help each other, and they live for each other.
Just think once about only existence of male or females around the world, is it possible for one to survive? I don’t think so, the reason is simple, and women are associated with some work of life that men can’t do such as household work, care for her family, bringing up children. Can we expect this kind of roles from men? If yes, will they perform as efficiently as a woman does? Now answer is no. Everybody needs to accept the fact that women play a major role and their work is as equivalent and important to any other work done by men.
Even our Indian history has got so many female leaders who stood against so many men for the independence and freedom. Not only Indian histories but think about various women such Indira Gandhi, who did good things for the nation. Think about females who are involved in various sports, which are equally played by men. Today, if you look around, you will see various girls in different schools and colleges, who are learning and scoring same or more than boys. Then what is the need of cursing a female child? Why is it required? What makes you think that female child should be aborted?
Just try to think; if we give same importance and treatment as boys to girls, then don’t you think country’s productivity will be enhanced? It will increase the contribution to country’s development.

REFLECTION ON JULY NEWSLETTER
This time, I worked as an interviewer and took an interview of two new students in DP 1, who are from Korea. I planned and made questions before the actual interview. I felt that framing questions gives wider view and made me think for many perspectives, which I can ask or clarify to them during an interview.
During an interview, I felt that they were not hesitant to express their real view about school and new curriculum. I perceived that they were happy to study IB curriculum as it gives them more practical and real experience. They told me that, they never liked Korea’s curriculum as it had more learning component, whereas IB gives them chance to think independently and take decision on the result of their thinking.
I think, this activity has given me a chance to enhance my new skill and to learn of how to ask or make an interviewee comfortable. I also learned that, while taking an interview, if an interviewee is unable to understand the question, one should try to reframe the question in more convenient and easy way.
I faced little difficulty in conversing as they were not so fluent with Language, English. Still I tried to express my views through body language and by reframing the sentences. I also realized that they also take lot of effort to understand and interpret the conversation. The learning outcome is that I become aware about my skill and how to conduct interview and what measure I should take while taking interview.Through this activity, I have developed the skill of planning the task or activity.

REFLECTION ON PLANTATION
Plantation has become very necessary in today’s world. It will help us to restore our natural resources, which will further be beneficial for new generation. Since it has become a need to reduce exploitation of plants, we DP students thought to plant some saplings into our school campus. This activity was done under the supervision of Jackson Joy, CAS advisor.
This activity was divided between eight students and each student planted around 8-10 saplings. During planting, I felt that one need to dig ground properly so that these new saplings will have proper intake of food, water and sunlight, hence they will be able to carry out proper photosynthesis.
I also learned that one should remove plastic bag from sapling and then plant it and also after planting, one need to fill the left space with appropriate amount of soil. This will ensure that no harm is caused to sapling by high speed of wind or rain. Even we students discarded the plastic bag in garbage bin and did not put at the place of saplings.
After completion of this activity, we decided to take care of these small plants by proper supply of water and other requirements every day.
