Gulab Group children turned the floor into their notebook as they practise English sentences. Others learn at their own pace, on the floor or against the walls, wherever they feel most comfortable. In Hindi, children read a chapter of Hind Mahasagar Mein Ek Chota Sa Hindustan and built confidence reading aloud.
For Maths classes, TLs used leaves, scrap materials, and play money to explore numbers and transactions. In science, children watched planted seeds grow and wired up batteries and bulbs to build electric circuits. EVS lessons cover state capitals, sports, butterflies, fish, and colourful birds. A visit to the forest department area teaches them about plant parts and the diversity of nature. Instead of buying maps, children are drawing large maps of India, Bihar, and India’s rivers using the grid method, blending art with geography.
Children rescue a baby squirrel and help it reach safety. Together they cleaned the playground and learned responsibility through action. Saturday workshops focus on cleanliness, organisation, hygiene, and necessities. Music teacher Rimjhim visits in person, and we welcome Rehman Ji, who joins Jeevanshala to teach Urdu.
Children pluck mangoes straight from the trees around the centre as the season arrives. At the Saturday sports meet, they play games, build teamwork, and cheer on a mixed match with girls and boys playing side by side.
From grid-drawn maps to rescued squirrels, June shows that at Jeevanshala, learning happens everywhere.
