Jan 12, DO - I - (B)Log

Everyone in class had his/her newspaper with him/her. Hacked today's jumble, and Jan-Feb, and Mar-April together came out with the answer. Then, moved on to the editorial part and discussed words and phrases in two editorials. Then, moved on to pronunciation and the nitty gritty of reading aloud.

Taught my GC class the intricacies of lateral thinking. Gave them instances like, "imgaine we have time-bound money, like your money expires by June 07." Using the PMI parameters in Lateral Thinking, asked them to come out with possible answers. It was a phenomenal hit among the students and they hit it off immediately. 'All cars should be painted yellow from next month' was the next hypothesis and a lot more. Students came up with very creative ideas and we had a very meaningful and lively interaction together. It's a good class.

We deeply mourn the sudden demise of Ms.Vaishnavi, III BA English in a tragic road accident yesterday.

Most of us, as a Dept, went to her house to pay our last respects to the departed soul. May her soul rest in peace. ! A very charming and dynamic girl, she made everyone around lively and she never hurt anybody.
