Hari OM Dear Families,

Here is this week's update.

 

Week: 16

23rd Feb 2025 / 9:15AM

 

Shlokas-

We all chanted OM 3 times followed by  shlokas

"Om Saha Navavatu" (page 8 in My Prayers book) 

"Vakratunda Mahakaya" (page 27 in My Prayers book)

"Sarawathi namasthubhyam" (page 12 in My Prayers book)

"Guru Brahma" (page 61 in My Prayers book)

 "Buddhir balam" (page 152 in My Prayers book)

We had spirit day celebration in balavihar. All of us wore their respective house colored attires. We had fun activities- made claydoh sivalinga and read the samudhra manthan story- the story of neelakanta and then solved clues to find the answer. 

In the mantapa we joined the rest of our durga daredevils team.

It was a super fun-filled hands-on activity  session in balavihar.

Gita- 

Please play the videos and show it to the children, they can practice. The playlist is linked in the description box of our class whatsapp. We have to memorize verses until 16 for our grade level.

 

Next class on 3/2/2025
