Seven WondersThe new perspective of a kid

A teacher was encouraging her students to

identify the Seven Wonders of the World.

Seven

Wonders ???

Watching a girl unable to pen them, she gave

some clues to help the kid.

Hinting about the great wall of china she said…

Think of a wall that

stood courageously

against the

hailstorms and

hurricanes.

She continued describing about panama canal …

Irrespective of

seasons, it flows

without stop,

against all odds.

The teacher then started hinting about the

leaning tower of Pisa…

Another wonder is a

tower, slightly bent,

but never accepts

defeat. It leans but

never falls.

And then she gave her clue about Tajmahal

People say it glitters

in moonlight. But if

you have an

insight, you can see

its glitter with your

heart.

About the pyramids, she pointed out…

It’s a monument, a

symbol of

concentration,

science and hard

work that could

never destroy.

The teacher then beckoned the girl to check

what she wrote.

Show me

that…

The shy kid was hesitant, opened the book and

showed her the answers…

Here is it

ma’am…

The answers she wrote were…

The wall that stood courageously against the

hailstorms and hurricanes.

- Mahatma Gandhi

Irrespective of seasons, his movements flowed

without stop, against all odds

- Martin Luther King

Another wonder, slightly bent, but never accepts

defeat. She leans but never falls.

- Mother Theresa

People say she glitters in moonlight. But if you

have an insight, you can see her glitter with your

heart.

- Helen Killer

He is like a monument, a symbol of concentration, science and hard work

that could never destroy

- Albert Einstein

The teacher, perplexed first

% ???

Later she recovered and announced those

names to other students.

Here’s her

creative

thinking…

After a brief silence, the classroom vibrated

with applause…

This small story tells us the creative corner of kids. Creativity is a blessing from nature but we can develop it

by careful planning through education. It is necessary that parents and teachers provide healthy conditions at home and in the school. This would enable children to express themselves and contribute something new for

the society, which may be termed as creativity.
