“Those who educate children well, are more to be honoured than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living” Aristotle.
The celebration of ‘” Teacher’s Day 2020” would be low-key affair, assumed the teachers but they were in for a gigantic surprise! The motivation to put up a spectacular show, was the profound thought; “Our teachers ensured that learning continued during the pandemic, despite all the challenges, we need to put up a remarkable show for them”.
They did just that, every student was sworn to secrecy. As the teachers entered the classes, they were astounded by the diverse ways the students paid tribute to them. Wonder when they got their act together?
True to their word, the students of each class, treated their teachers to a morning of gaiety and gratitude. The background of the virtual class had striking posters, splendid cards, flowers and colourful streamers. ‘Thank You” videos, using all their technological prowess, were created, edited dances were shown. The students turned lyricists, recited poems and audio recordings of songs were played. Live performances were a part of the celebration too!
That was not all, hilarious skits, videos with animations, were put together about each of their teachers. It was appreciation galore, the demonstrative speeches the students put together in appreciation of their teachers, left them overwhelmed and emotional!
To express their nostalgia and depict how much they were missing their school campus, the young IT specialists, designed a virtual tour of the school with the help of Minecraft software.
“The teachers may be strict, they might be tough at times, but one thing is sure, they show us, unconditional love” is what did the little ones had to say.
