Science Experiments

 


Photo gallery showing the  science Practical Skills of the Academic year 2020-21

Due to covid-19 the year 2020-21 has introduced online class for the students. Online class has its own merits and demerits but the major problem is student-teacher interaction which could not be met. When government allowed the offline classes for 8th 9th and 10th standard it was a mixed feeling of happiness and fear for all. Once the student entered the school by following all the safety measures, they were really happy to come to school. The students always enjoy learning by performing activities.During this crucial period also they were so positive towards study and that too when it is about performing activities. This precious moments of happiness I wanted to capture and preserve. And this is my small effort to do it with the help of this blog for all my loving students.
  The photos uploaded here is not only a photo but each photo has its own story and memories. Come let's have a tour of it.
