Please welcome Ms. Shanthavva in this episode of ‘Pratibimba’ – By Teachers, For Teachers!
Shanthavva has been an Asst. Teacher for 24 years, now at Yaraguppi. She has concentrated on following the ten-point programme of the government in improving the school. She has published 10 volumes of the magazine ‘Prerana’ in 2016-17 and they were released by the Regional Educational Officer and the MLA of Kundagola. This was on social sciences. In 2018 she brought out 11 volumes of another magazine, this time on science, called ‘Parivartane’.
She noticed that children had to gather information from 10 different books. That is what pushed her into compiling the necessary material in one book. That was ‘Prerana’. It starts from pre-independence days and traces back to how society changed from those days. ‘Parivartane’ traces the human evolution along with the scientific development over a very long period.
She has given these books to 10 different schools in her cluster, and the DDPI and the BEO insisted that the books be available in the library for reference. Now any child can look into these books for any topic included in the curriculum.
She has spent countless nights over making these books and spent a thousands of rupees from her pocket to bring out the books. She recalls one particular incident where they students had to write about Savitri Bai Phule and her book was extremely useful.
She has planted aver 120 saplings with her personal money and the school has got the award for being ‘Environment friendly’. She was given a State level award and she bought a laptop and a projector for the school with that money.
She believes that if children are treated with love, they are more likely to learn and work. Currently she is ready with a copy on the 150-year history of the school, which is soon to be released.
