Snezana28 11.11,2020.Good morning, dear virtual friends.
Today is a holiday in Serbia, the Day of Reconciliation in the First World War. Yesterday, I held a thematic class with my students on the topic of this wonderful plant called Natalia's Ramonda.
I wrote about it in the previous article.
We made a panel with pictures and text. And then we watched a documentary on the smart board. The children were interested and gained certain knowledge.
Today, a mini vacation started in Serbia. A short break from school and protection from the virus that is currently rampant in Serbia.
We really had a lot of activities in our school. Yesterday we celebrated Anja's birthday.
Anja made chocolate packets for all the children. It was fun, we sang Happy Birthday songs in both Serbian and English.
We also organized an exhibition of art works on the theme of Man and Nature. After the exhibition, the works went for evaluation to NORTHERN MACEDONIA in the CITY of Skopje. We hope for a reward.
And one good news. On the platform, I wrote about J.K. Rowling, which is a fairy tale "Ikabog".Writing it more than ten years ago, with the idea of making it a bedtime story for her younger children, she decided to share her family’s favorite story now online, for free, publishing it in sequels, so that children, parents and carers, are locked in homes during a coronavirus pandemic, at least a little fun.
While the story is being published in sequels, J.K. Rowling invites children around the world to illustrate her story. Parents and guardians can submit their children's works to the official competition for illustration "Ikabog" organized by the publisher J.K. Rowling.
The competition is over and our Dorothy won with her illustration. We are very happy. Being an illustrator in the original edition of J.K. Rowling is a big deal. In addition, Dorothy received books for the school library worth 200e.
AND SO OUR DAYS PASS, GENERATIONS GO AND AND I THINK I HAVE CHOSEN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL JOB IN THE WORLD. BEING A TEACHER. Being a teacher is more than a vocation and a profession, it is a calling. Everyone who works tastes the fruits of labor, a carpenter makes beautiful furniture that adorns many houses and apartments, a baker kneads bread that feeds many people, a doctor heals the soul of the sick, and a teacher heals against ignorance, he opens many paths of life through which you will walk. The teacher creates whole generations of scientists, professors, doctors. The charm of a teacher's vocation is to love your vocation, to try to make good, honest and honorable people out of your students with the help of your parents.
For the end, I am giving away a song by the poet Vito Nikolić.
A letter to my teacher
Dear teacher,
don't be surprised by this late letter,
reminded me of you two little birds,
two ordinary birds on a telegraph wire.
I remembered, you know, those stories of yours
full of love for innocent and weak birds
after which we are, because of every slingshot
and a pebble, kneeling long behind the board.
I don't blame you - far from it,
not even that you dragged me by the ears,
it's all nice in its own way today
and it is pleasant of that in the soul.
I often remember that time a long time ago
war, winter, famine, barbed wire,
it was not, of course, easy then
to teach someone to love birds.
Ma'am, that is, to say the least,
heroism worthy of respect
to teach someone love
with the roar of a terrible war,
of one decay.
Thank you, madam teacher,
and do not be astonished at this late letter,
reminded me of you two little birds,
two ordinary birds on a telegraph wire.
Teacher are like gods and they teach student all the knowledge they have with open mind
