Description: Hello I heard your message, I like madam's suggestion of making small group and appoint a leader in the group. And if a leader or a group performs well then we should encourage the leader by giving him some prize.

Description: Hello this is Shazia from SEWA, I heard message from other teachers. I heard how they deal with old and new students in a class. We are working with the new students and they have improved over a period time but their are still issues that need to be addressed with these kids. For example the last activity of 'lizard question' I discussed the question with students in my class and the answer are recorded on voice system. I asked the same question to a girl back home who is just five year old, her answer was way better than our 13 year old students. That five year old girl gave several example of other animals who can walk on the wall without even asking on the other hand kids in school did not take other animals into account while making their hypothesis. 

The other problem that we face is that kids are doing well in school, they answer our questions and they score in exam, But when their parents ask them question they are not able to answer. 

I want to make our students think, what should we do to make our students more inquisitive, How do we explain parents they should not tell wrong things to their kids. They misguide their children most of the time. I feel that these are important issues that we should discuss. I hope I will find answers to my questions.
