Leadership is not about a title or a designation. It’s about impact, influence and inspiration.” – Robin S. Sharma A ceremony of investiture is symbolic of a myriad of different important aspects of human life- growth, maturity, belief, faith, duty and sincerity, to name a few. In keeping with this, San Academy, Velachery, to ensure a well-rounded education to its meritorious students, is home to a Students’ Council with a term of one academic session, each. On the 12th of June, 2019, the Students’ Council was invested duties for the academic session 2019-20. A very solemn occasion, the ceremony began with the Council members marching to the stage with their flags held high, in sync with mighty, fervent music that replicated the aura of the ceremony. Lead by the top office bearers, one by one, each member marched on the stage to be badged and sashed by the chief guest Ms Sobha Daniel. In each mind was instilled a sense of pride and respect for the school. After a sincere oath-taking ceremony, Council members from the four different houses of San Academy School marched proudly to their strongholds in the corridor, and took their places with their waving flags symbolizing their aspirations for their respective houses - Akash, Prithvi, Vayu and Agni.

www.sanacademy.edu.in 25 REFLECTIONS 2019-2020 SHOWSHOW ANDAND TELLTELL For Kindergarteners of San Academy, Show and Tell is a time to share some of their favorite toys, photos, and hobbies with teachers and friends. It is also a time to develop important communication and social skills. In Kindergarten, the student must learn to speak clearly, guide a listener to understand important ideas, describe people, places, things and locations, increase vocabulary, speak in complete sentences, follow and create a sequence, and paraphrase what they have heard. These early language experiences help to build effective communication and listening skills that are essential for a young child’s learning. It also encourages emotional development in a child, as he or she shares their interests and joy with peers. In addition, this socially rewarding experience helps to solidify important home-school connections, particularly when Show and Tell is aligned with the curriculum. Through this activity, the school provides opportunities for our Preschool students to develop these key skills in the context of the curriculum themes being studied. During this monthly structured program, where students are encouraged to share items from home that align with the month’s curriculum theme, the children are encouraged to use descriptive words and complete sentences. Questions like, “Why is this object special to you?” “How does this work?” or “Where did you get this object?” Help the children to strengthen their language and communication skills.

26 SAN Vel – Annual magazine 2019-2020 REFLECTIONS 2019-2020 GENERALGENERAL CLASSESCLASSES Peer learning is an important aspect in development of a child.

MOUNTAIN MYTHS People in ancient times didn’t know about plate tectonics, so they shared stories with each other to explain how mountains formed. 1. Holy Battle: According to a Klamath Indian Legend, the Cascade Range of the Pacific Northwest was the below world and God’s of the after world. 2. Lying Around: A Tibetan Myth says that the Himalayas were formed when an evil Princess stretched out in ground and died. 3. Boning Up: The Vikings believed that a race of frost giants, led by Ymir, created the Universe. Ymir was later defeated and killed by his descendants, who used his body to create heaven and Earth. Ymir’s bones turned into the trees, his teeth were turned into rocks, and the clouds are formed out of his brain. 4. Egg – Streme Beginnings: Pan –gu was a Chinese giant who came out of a cosmic egg. He grew for thousands of years until he burst apart. Pieces of his heads became China’s scared mountains. – By, C.E. Vidhusha, IV A

ME THE DORA I was brought up watching lot of cartoons as a kid and my favorite was “Dora”. I always wanted to be like her. So last summer me and my mom went to explore the beauty of “Himalaya”. It is called “Char Dham” Char means - four in Hindi and Dham means – Pilgrims place. My journey started by Yamunathri. As the name says, the divine Yamuna river flows. The water was very very cold. I got tempted and drank lots of it. But I did not fall sick. My adventure continued to Gangothri. I explored this place by taking bath in the cold Ganga. We consider Ganga as Goddess so the God did not bring any harm to me. The third Dham was Kadarnath. I wanted to explore this place in helicopter but I went by palanquin. Helicopter will take in 6 minutes but I want to enjoy more so went by palanquin. Other options like horse or by walk. Here Lord Shiva’s stone is worshiped, by humans for 6 months and by God’s 6 months. My hands were freezed and I wouldn’t move that all. The fourth and the last Dham was Badrinath. This was the coolest place I have ever visited. The temple was beautifully decorated. Here Lord Vishnu was worshipped. During my trip I saw fluffy dogs, beautiful flower and the ranges of mountains filled with snow. My dream of becoming Dora was fulfilled. – By, Srijapa Patro, IIIA

WHY IS SEAWATER SALTY? When water falls as rain, it mixes with carbondioxide, sulpher – dioxide and nitrogen – oxide and goes with rivers. The mixing of the gases makes the water little salty. When the river drain into the sea, all the salt will be staying now in the sea. When water evaporates, the salt particles would be left behind. This process is taking place for crores of years. Under the sea, there are volcanoes also. When these volcanoes erupt, they release chlorine. Even in the sea there are some sodium particles. When this sodium particles and the chlorine meet, chemical reaction happens and NaCl is formed. NaCl is the edible salt that we put in dishes. – By, V. Aksharaa, IVA

ONE TOUCH A BOON OR BANE With the advent of modernization several technological improvements have taken place which is intended towards making life simpler with faster solution. Predominantly smart mobile phones are perceived to be an elixir of life through it “One Touch” they provide connectivity and source of solutions through customized apps. Definitely the smart mobile phones has many advantage the most prominent ones are: • Connectivity across globe – Shrinking the boundaries • Quick reference of facts – Modern gurus such as “ Google” and “Wikipedia” • Customized solutions – Mobile Apps • Need not worry about routs – Google Map • Freedom of Expression social media So what is the problem! Yes it has striking similarity with the saying “Good servant but a mad master” mobile phones are very useful only when it remains under our control. One the contrary when we are getting ourselves controlled by it; then this opens up to the modern age risks. There problems are felt by many individuals but they are seldom addressed. The following two are the most threat full impacts SOCIALIZING: We are in an era of many friends through face book but weaker relationships. At work place whenever we feel like having a break at home during free time Irony is even with friends / relatives during outings etc; our hand immediately reaches to a gadget rather to relationship. All heads inclined down forgetting the neighborhood and the very purpose of relationships are under chronic deterioration let’s at least adopt a practice of a meaningful socializations with our friends relations cleared ones with realization of fact that the mobile phones will be a companion only till the battery or data pack lasts. Till mid 2000’s we grew with socializing and our lives were filled with memories which is now greatly deprived due to mobile phones. DISTRACTIONS: The powerful media of information’s entertainment games mobile Apps what it does? It is always gives users a curiosity with gushing updates that has the potentials to get engrossed in it. This create a short term isolations to the rest of world but this also sadly resulted in accidents and deaths in worst case. We all have heard of many cases!!!. Let’s think of simple solutions more than the problems yes it is all in our hands. We need to realize within ourselves in drawing a simple boundary. When you get a free time just think within yourselves that how you are going to make that moment filled with memories. This should definitely be not by getting captivated with your mobiles phones. The creator has given us a good eco system and opportunities of relationships for us to explore. Just speak out to your friends relatives in train, buses during pre smart phone era. Even if in any chance you are devoid of any sources to socializing why not just enjoy the nature and community while you just walk or travel. This is better then ending up with distraction driven losses.
