Ravi and Ananya felt proud seeing people wearing their bangles on Diwali night. Have you ever created something (drawing, writing, or a project) that made you happy? Share your experience with the class.
Students are expected to share personal experiences of creating something that brought them joy. Examples may include: creating a painting that was appreciated by family members, writing a poem or story that was published in the school magazine, making a science project that won appreciation, cooking a dish for the family, or crafting handmade gifts for friends. The feeling of pride and happiness comes from seeing others appreciate and use what we have created with effort and dedication.
