Friendship - Mishika Baweja

Hello! Today I am going to talk about friendship. Everyone likes to make friends. We talk, dance and play with friends. I have many friends in my grade 3 class like Aryama, Janya, Amina and Manya. My best friend is Aryama. She is very kind to me. I, being her good friend, have helped her many times. Let me share my experience. 

One day I was walking down the stairs, suddenly, I fell down from the fifth stair. I injured my leg. It was paining, and Aryama saw me on the ground; she got to know what had happened. She helped me stand on my feet. This is how my friend helped me in school.

I also talk with my other friends, Janya, Manya, Aryama and Aarohi. I love to speak with them because they are my good friends. I even remember when we used to get lunch in school, we shared lunch with each other. That was my best experience ever with friends sharing our tiffins. 

My teacher in grade 3, Nishita ma’am, is also my friend because she is very friendly and makes us laugh a lot. We enjoy her classes a lot. Thank you to all my friends for being with me.

Friendship - Anika Mishra

Hello everyone, today I am going to tell you about my friends. My friends are Advita Priyadarshini and Udaytam. We all are best friends, and we talk to each other. Advita helped me understand a topic taught in class, Priyadarshini taught me how to cook, and Udaytam helped me learn how to ride a bicycle.

Apart from them, my friends are trees, as they give us lots of things like vegetables, fruits, oilseeds and wood. We make oil from oilseeds, eat fruits and vegetables, and from wood, make furniture like beds, tables, and chairs.

My friends are also animals. They are adorable. I always wanted a pet. There are lots of pet animals like cats and dogs. They also help us like a cat eats rats so there are no rats in our house and dogs help us when we are out and a thief or stranger comes, it scares them away.

I like my friends as they help me a lot, especially in tough times, and if they need me, I will help them too.

Autobiography Of A Clock - Rishona Chopra

My name is ….. What was it? Oh yes, a clock. I am a clock. The one used to check the time. My grandpa was a sundial. He was also used for checking the time, but now he is dead. No one uses him anymore. But he was luckier than me. How? You ask, well he was allowed to stay in the open air, right beneath the sun, and I am closed in a glass-like case, as a prisoner. I hardly can breathe; I feel like I could choke at any time. Luckily, I have not. 

There is something extraordinary about me; I have three hands while everyone has only two! Isn't that surprising? Everybody thinks having three hands makes my work easier, but it makes it even harder. One moves very fast, like in seconds, the other moves a little slower, and the third one moves every hour. I work very hard, but those rectangular things called 'phones' have replaced me. No one really cares about me. If I was allowed to do anything, I would ban phones!! I do have a very tiring life.

Friendship - Aavansh Gupta

There is a ship in which is a friend,

It will not let you drown,

There is a ship where there is a friend,

On our face, It will not give a frown.

He will play with you,

Not making us sad

Not fighting with us

Not making you mad

So I say that everybody

Should have a friend

Who will stay with you from the starting

Till the end

Friendship - Sia Nagar

In March I shifted to a new society I only had one friend Tvisha. When I played a game with her, we were looking for someone who could play with us. We found a girl named Pankti, we played with her. The next day I played with her and lots of kids were there with her. While we were playing, I found a girl named Aarya. She joined us too, and we were good friends.

One day I was went to the park there was nobody except Pankti and Aarya then I got to know they both are also good friends, now we are best friends, and we have picnics and parties etc.

Friendship - Yashraj Sharma

 “A friend is someone who knows all about you and still understands you.” - Elbert Hubbard.

Friendship! If someone asks me about the most important people in my life, I will say my family and friends because these two relationships have always kept me optimistic in my unhappy times and taken care of me.

But, unfortunately, in today’s times, our non-verbal communication has gained much ground. Now, priorities have changed to some extent. Sometimes, things commonly make us fume. When we send our best friend a message through Whatsapp, they have seen it, and we have the double blue ticks to prove it. Yet, they haven’t replied.

A sense of hesitation and discomfort starts to tingle in us. We start thinking before sending texts to our friends. We start overthinking and thoughts like, will our friendship grow after this or will they not talk to us? Start coming to our mind. But my experience with friends is thankfully different !!

A wise saying says no one knows the importance of water until the well dries; this applies to friends also. We never realise the value of friends until we are separated.

Before this pandemic, during offline classes, we met our friends daily, we used to chit-chat with each other, work as a team, exchange our thoughts and views etc. Though we were good friends for a long time, I never realised that is such a strong bond. So during this time, we are connecting through video calls on weekends. It refreshes my mind. I feel elated and ecstatic. It would be true to say that friends are valuable treasures of life.

I pray to God and look forward to meeting my friends in person very soon.

Learning brought to life - Rishona Chopra

The book My Good School is about the importance of real-world learning.

In our school, we learnt about the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre. If we, in one of our school trips, visited Jallianwala Bagh, then I suppose it would be real-world learning!

Climbing mountains will demonstrate the fall in air pressure. Floating on the salty sea will explain density and buoyancy.

Our school, Gyanshree, implements this real-world learning. We go on school trips and do several experiments not only in science but in each subject we have a unique project to do! That one project connects the issues and helps us understand the importance of the real world. 

Once in 3rd Grade, we were learning about Mahatma Gandhi, and we went on a school trip to some sort of museum that displayed Mahatma Gandhi's life. It was fascinating; not only did I learn a little bit of the route to that place, but I learnt about history in another engaging way. So that was the fun about real-world learning. Not only do we have fun, but we know a lot more than we learn from our textbooks.
