The Good School session was truly inspiring. Mr Jugjiv Sir read and explained the story, The Door-to-Door Bookstore. He also told us the meanings of the hard words. We also learned how to pronounce the difficult words. The way Sir teaches was very nice. At the end, I would say that this session was very interesting.

In this Good School session, I learned how to pronounce words correctly and how to spell new words that were difficult for me before. I also learned how to use commas and question marks properly in sentences. During the session, Jugjiv Sir read a story to us, and we listened carefully. He asked us questions about the story and encouraged us to share our experiences and thoughts. This activity helped me understand the story better and improved my speaking skills. In the end, I would like to say that this session was very useful for me.

The session on The Door-to-Door Bookstore was honestly super interesting and fun! We didn’t just read the story; we really got into it, exploring the characters, their struggles, and how small actions can make a big difference. I especially loved how we discussed random but cool things, like the heels-for-men fact and the legend of Santa Claus—stuff you wouldn’t normally think about, but it made the session so lively. It was more than just a story; it was about human connections, persistence, and noticing the little things in life that actually matter. I also enjoyed how everyone could share their thoughts—it wasn’t just one-way; it felt interactive and made me think differently about storytelling and how messages are delivered. Overall, it was a session that was both fun and meaningful. I left feeling inspired and more aware of the small details and lessons stories can teach us. Definitely one of those sessions that stick with you!

In today’s Good School session, firstly, Jugjiv Sir read a story to us, and we understood it carefully. We learned how to pronounce some difficult words and their meanings. The story’s name was The Door-to-Door Bookstore. After that, there was a short quiz on Ruskin Bond taken by Manisha Khanna Ma’am. This was conducted because the next story was by Ruskin Bond, and that book was also amazing. Ma’am also asked some questions that related to us. At the end of my reflection, I want to say that this session was amazing and interesting.

My reflection on today’s Good School Alliance session: Today’s meeting about the Good School Alliance session by Jugjiv Sir and Manisha Ma’am was very inspiring and interesting. They also read a story. We listened to it very carefully. Then they asked some questions about it, and that encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. This helped me understand the story better. We learned how to pronounce words properly, and when they were reading the story, I was very focused on each and every word. That helped me pronounce properly and read fluently. I also learned how regular reading improves our reading skills and vocabulary. The session motivated me to make reading a daily habit. In the end, I would like to say that it was a very informative and enjoyable meeting, and I am excited to be a part of this learning journey.

Learning Beyond Words: A Day of Inspiration and Growth - Sunbeam School Ballia

Jai Hind, dear readers 

Today’s Good School Alliance session, conducted by Jugjiv Sir and Manisha Ma’am, was truly enlightening and inspiring. Jugjiv Sir read and explained the story “The Door-to-Door Bookstore” in a very expressive and engaging manner. The story beautifully conveyed the power of reading and how books can shape our imagination and personality.

The story revolves around Carl Konrad Koreander, a passionate bookstore owner, whose shop is filled with rare and magical books. One day, a young boy named Bastian visits his store and discovers that books are not just pages with words, but gateways to imagination, wisdom, and self-discovery. Through their interaction, the story highlights how reading can open our minds, deepen our understanding, and make us see the world differently.

Throughout the session, Sir guided us in learning the correct pronunciation and meanings of several difficult words. This helped improve our reading fluency and vocabulary. The interactive discussion and thoughtful questions encouraged us to think critically and share our interpretations, which made the session both educational and enjoyable.

From this experience, I understood that regular reading not only enhances our language skills but also strengthens our concentration, creativity, and empathy. Books truly are our best companions, helping us learn, grow, and dream beyond boundaries.

In conclusion, today’s session was deeply motivating, informative, and memorable. It has inspired me to make reading a daily habit and to explore more meaningful stories that enrich both mind and heart.

Reflection on today's session✨

Today's session was very inspiring and knowledgeable for everyone. In the first session, Jugiv Singh sir had read a book named "The Book To Book Store" in which we have learnt a lot of new words, and also this improved my vocabulary and some English.

In the second session we were having Manisha Khanna ma'am who told us about the "Ruskin Bond" story and the story name was  "char pankhudiyan" and also at the beginning of the story we played a short quiz about Ruskin Bond in the quiz she asked us some unique things about Ruskin Bond life and asked the questions related to that and the story was about four friends. At last, Sandeep sir told us very nice and good things, and also motivated us to move forward in our lives. I am really thankful to have this opportunity to have such a great platform for learning new things, to have motivation from all the members of My Good School 🌺.

I thank Sandeep sir, Jugiv  sir and Manisha ma'am for taking today's great session 

Both sessions were truly amazing

Thank you 😊

Today’s Good School Session✨

Today's session was truly inspiring and informative. In the first session with Jugjiv Sir, we learned how to pronounce words correctly and use punctuation marks effectively through reading reflections and the book “The Door to Door Bookstore.” This activity significantly improved my vocabulary and communication skills.

The second session with Manisha Ma’am was equally enriching. She read us the story “चार पंखुड़ियां” (Four Petals) written by Ruskin Bond. The story revolved around four friends who were mistaken for kidnappers while trying to care for a small child. We also enjoyed an engaging quiz that deepened our understanding of Ruskin Bond’s works. The session was truly interactive and fun.

One key takeaway that resonated with me was the importance of avoiding impulsive decisions, especially when we are emotional. This valuable lesson has left a lasting impact, and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to learn.🌸

Thank you, Manisha Ma’am and Jugjiv Sir, for such a thought-provoking session.💫
