Fear Vs Courage - Sunbeam School Indiranagar

It was time for the prayer meeting. Riya, Kushagra and Samarth were all going to speak on their topics. Kushagra and Riya were very excited about their topic but Samarth was a little scared and worried. He would read his topic again and again and then start getting a little nervous. Everyone spoke about their topics one by one and now it was Samarth's turn. As soon as he held the mike, he became completely blank as if he did not know what to say. Seeing this, his class teacher came close to him and explained to him that son, you start your topic with a greeting, you can do it and I am with you, an effort is necessary to learn dear, no one is perfect in one go. But for perfection one has to start and try again and again, so you take a deep breath and speak about your topics. Samarth gathered some courage and started speaking. 

Whenever he forgot, his class teacher tried to remind him. In this way Samarth completed his topic. After the prayer meeting, his class teacher asked Samarth in the class how he was feeling now. Samarth smiled and said, thank you! Ma’am, for helping me. Some children's skills emerge with basic knowledge but some children who are introverts have to make a little effort to display their skills. For this, teachers and parents should keep encouraging the children without getting disappointed. Some children take time to display their skills and when they start performing, they do amazing because gradually their confidence starts to strengthen. Therefore, instead of giving negative feedback to the children, they should be encouraged to do better by telling them 'what good they did'.
