Who is a teacher??

 This is a very good one !

 very moving !

 If you like this Email or not, but meaning in this message has to be  sent everywhere.

 I believe new generation may have different view. But please do not ignore importance of this message.

 To save Education system, let's Forward.

 

 From A School Principal's speech at a graduation.

 He said "Doctor wants his child to become a doctor.........

 Engineer wants his child to become engineer......

 Businessman wants his ward to become CEO.....

 BUT a teacher also wants his child to become one of them..!!!!

 Nobody wants to become a teacher BY CHOICE" ....Very sad but that's  the truth.....!!!

 

 The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life.

 One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education. He argued,

 "What's a kid going to learn from someone who decided his best option in life was to become a teacher?"

 

 To stress his point he said to another guest;

 "You're a teacher, Bonnie. Be honest. What do you make?"

 Teacher Bonnie, who had a reputation for honesty and frankness replied,

 "You want to know what I make?

 (She paused for a second, then began...)

 

 "Well, I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could.

 

 I make a C+ feel like the Congressional Medal of Honor winner.

 

 I make kids sit through 40 minutes of class time when their parents can't

 make them sit for 5 min. without an I Pod, Game Cube or movie rental.

 

 You want to know what I make?

 (She paused again and looked at each and every person at the table)

 

 I make kids wonder.

 

 I make them question.

 

 I make them apologize and mean it.

 

 I make them have respect and take responsibility for their actions.

 

 I teach them how to write and then I make them write.

 Keyboarding isn't everything.

 

 I make them read, read, read.

 

 I make them show all their work in math.

 They use their God given brain, not the man-made calculator.

 

 I make my students from other countries learn everything they need

 to know about English while preserving their unique cultural identity.

 

 I make my classroom a place where all my students feel safe.

 

 Finally, I make them understand that if they use the gifts they

 were given, work hard, and follow their hearts, they can succeed in life

 

 ( Bonnie paused one last time and then continued.)

 

 Then, when people try to judge me by what I make, with me knowing

 money isn't everything, I can hold my head up high and pay no

 attention because they are ignorant. You want to know what I make?

 

 I MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN ALL YOUR LIVES, EDUCATING KIDS AND PREPARING  THEM TO BECOME CEO's ,AND DOCTORS AND ENGINEERS..........

 

 What do you make Mr. CEO?

 

 His jaw dropped; he went silent.

 

 THIS IS WORTH SENDING TO EVERY TEACHER & CEO, EVERY PERSON YOU KNOW.

 Even all personal teachers like mother, father, brother, sister, coach and spiritual leader/teacher.

Evidences that meditation works

Stress: The term meditation is also referred to as the "relaxation response." This term was coined by Dr. Herbert Benson of Harvard in his seminal studies on stress in 1967. Dr. Benson measured the heart rate, blood pressure, skin temperature, and rectal temperature of 36 meditators. He discovered they used 17% less oxygen, lowered their heart rates by three beats a minute and increased their theta brain waves, the relaxing ones that appear right before sleep.

Hypertension: J. Stuart Lesserman, M.D., Harvard, Patients with hypertension for at least 10 years went through 10 weeks of the relaxation response. Diastolic and systolic blood pressure decreased and patients maintained their lower blood pressure throughout later follow–ups.

Insomnia: G. Jacobs, Harvard, Ph.D., had 100 patients with insomnia practice the relaxation response for 10 weeks. 100% of patients reported some type of improvement in sleep and 91% stopped or decreased their sleep medication use. Infertility: Alice Domar, Ph.D., Harvard, Worked with women with infertility for over three and one half years who were severely depressed. They practiced 10 weeks of the relaxation response which resulted in significant decrease in depression and anxiety. One third of women, who averaged three and one half years of infertility, became pregnant.

Chronic pain: Margaret Caudill, M.D., Harvard had 109 patients suffering with chronic pain for 6.5 years practice the relaxation response for 10 weeks. It resulted in improved symptoms and 36% reduction in HMO visits in a one year follow up, and increased to a 50% reduction by the second year.

Longevity: Robert H. Schneider, M.D., Maharishi University Institute for Natural Medicine and Prevention. Research showed two studies of meditation groups, who had normal to high blood pressure, were 23% less likely to die than people who did not. The meditation groups studied had a 30% decrease in the rate of deaths due to heart disease and stroke and a 50% reduced rate of cancer deaths.

Immune Function: Meditation, or the relaxation response, has demonstrated effects on the immune function and the brain and reveals the biological consequences of this mind–body intervention. Dr. Richard Davidson, Ph.D. of the University of Wisconsin and his colleagues discovered individuals who underwent eight weeks of meditation training produced more antibodies to a flu vaccine and showed signs of increased electrical activity in areas of the brain related to positive emotions than the individuals who did not meditate. Employees at a biotechnology company participated in this study with half receiving weekly meditation training and the other half not receiving training.

Memory: The Journal of Memory and Cognition reported college students meditating displayed significant improvements in memory performance over a two week period on a perceptual and short term memory y reduction of blood pressure, and better near point vision and auditory discrimination. Short term meditators were physiologically five years younger than their chronological age. The study controlled for the effect of diet and exercise.

Cholesterol: The Journal of Social Behavior and Personality published a longitudinal study showing that cholesterol levels significantly decreased through meditation in patients with elevated cholesterol, compared to match controls, over an eleven month period.

Addiction: Addiction takes one of the greatest tolls in our lives in terms of the costs of suffering of families, the costs to our prison system, costs to our health care system, and the cost of lost productivity of human potential. The Journal of Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly and the International Journal of the Addictions report that meditation can even decrease cigarette, alcohol and drug abuse. An analysis of 198 independent treatment outcomes found that meditation produced a significantly larger reduction in tobacco, alcohol and illicit drug use than either standard substance abuse treatments (including counseling, pharmacological treatments, relaxation training and Twelve Step programs) or prevention.

Dealing With Children Who Fail In Exams!

Click here to join nidokidos

Long nights, tiring days and a painful mind was what most school children and teens were going through the whole of last month. With board exams, school examinations and college exams , most kids and teenagers were in a frenzy, studying their level best to achieve a great number on their certificate.

 

It is almost time now for the results to be announced and for almost all kids, teenagers and parents it is a time they are griping their teeth anxiously waiting for the what the outcome might be, which is 'the results'!

 

There will be tears of joy when you see your child looking at her/his marks card and if something bad has to happen (God Forbid ) here is what you should do, for your child.

 

1.Failure is a stepping stone to success. Tell your child that you still love him/her and that failure is not the end of the road for there is always a next time to achieve something greater.

 

2.If your child has failed in the examination, show some support even though this kills you too. Being there by the side of your child and encouraging him/her , helps them learn from their failures.

 

3.Don't impose your ideas and rules at this period as the child is already in an unstable mind frame and imposing ways to study might just hinder his thought that he/she is hopeless and good for nothing. Just be there and comfort your child if he/she has failed in the examination.

 

4.Make you child understand that failure is a part of reality and some day or the other we all have to accept it. Listen to what he/she has to say as this is the time when you need to be a patient parent for the situation is very delicate.

 

5.If your child has failed in the examination, do not make the mistake of cheering them instantly thinking that they will get over it. This situation takes time to heal and it will only fade away if you are close to your child, helping him/her get over this period of failure.

 

6.If your child has failed in the examination, never leave them alone at any given point of time as they are capable of doing something stupid.

 

7.As for parents, no doubt you feel let down after your child has failed in the examination. But, if you think you are not good in handling the situation, ask for help, which the best is from a psychologist!

 

Go slow on your children and take one step at a time during this examination period .
