2011 School Term Start ( June )


Some photos of a mock exercise the children went thru on 2nd week in June, I had about 200 sheets of varying exercises from Arithmetic Progression, Geometric Progression ( 10th grade syllabus ) to 'Fraction Divisions' for 8th, and 9th Grade students.
These students were eager to crack these sample papers, To get them into the session - I had to team 2 kids to start looking at each sheet and most correct entries were handed a prize - a single cookie or a mango. (smile )
Once they got of hang of how many mango(es) or cookies (whichever could fit into their pockets.. ) the race to attempt the most papers was on, But once I ran out of them  the race was still on.. clearly indicating the interest in the students to do something challenging.
My next challenge is to get them more into serious math stuff, Basic English skills etc.

Open for anyone who wants to chip/help/support in any form.


After school, I got them working on this.

All it took was a few minutes of coaching to get them excited.

Parents who were grazing cattle came by to cheer their kids.

Getting parents involved, also showed that the parents knew that if the child did well then they would do well in life.



I just let the 8th grade kids, look over the seniors solve problems.

I had this from 12PM to 3 PM.
