The exam season is in full swing and most of the discussion are centered around students asking them to prepare well and score good marks. Students, you are soon going to appear for Annual Examination. Some students get panicky before the examination but there is no need to fear. The exams are simply to test your understanding of the things that you have been taught in the class. So dear, face them with confidence and courage, give your hundred percent near the exams to studies. Revise as much as you can with proper breaks. Interact with your friends, teachers and parents if you have any problem. On a sheet of paper write formulas & formats and stick around your room to remind yourself.

At last I would like you to this quote :

“Success is sweet but the secret is sweat”. Best of Luck everyone………..

Bone piercing yet exhilarating winter , Republic Day celebration filled with patriotism , emotional yet enthusiastic farewell of class 12th students , AMI witnessed every color of festivities during last month. Now it’s time for all the students to appear at exams. Examinations are considered essential devils. Worry, anxiety , stress are some common words that click in our mind when we think of exams.

Do we need to be victim of exam-phobia ?

A few days ago our Honorable Prime Minister spoke to students which was telecasted as ‘ Pareeksha Pe Charcha ‘ . He advised students and parents to celebrate examination period as festival of exam.

Examination is an efficient way to measure the knowledge. It opens the door of opportunity to learn. Students can show their knowledge and evaluate their skills.

Exams promote healthy competition among students that helps developing their personality and confidence. So students, without any pressure, read, learn , explore. Know your capabilities and qualities.

Enjoy reading. All the Best !

A boy was watching his grandmother write a letter.At one point, he asked: ‘Are you writing a story about what we have done? It is a story about me? His grandmother stopped writing her letter and said to her grandson: ’I am writing about you, actually, but more important than the words is the pencil I am’ using. I hope you will be like this pencil when you grow up. ’Intrigued, the boys looked at the pencil. It did not seem very special. ‘But it is just like any other pencil I have ever seen!’ his grandmother said, that depends on how you look at Things. It has five qualities which, if you manage to hang on to them, will make you a person who is always at peace with the world.

first quality : you are capable of great things, what you must never forget that there is a hand guiding your steps. we call that hand God, and he always guides us according to his will .

second quality: Now and then I have to stop writing and use a sharpener that makes the pencil suffer a little, but afterwards, it is much sharpener so you, too must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows because they will make you a better person.

3rd quality: The pencil always allows us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did, It is not necessarily a bad thing; it helps to keep us on the road to justice.

4th quality: what really matters in a pencil is not its wooden exterior, but the graphite inside.So always pay attention to what is happening inside.

5th quality the pencil always leaves a mark.In just the same way, you should know that everything you do in life leaves a mark, so try to be conscious of that in your every action.

The students of A.M.I. Shishu Mandir, bid a farewell to their seniors during a farewell party.

A farewell party was organised at school premises where all the seniors and juniors had a lot of fun together. The seniors received a warm welcome by the juniors as they entered wearing elegant attire.

The juniors created an ambiance of enjoyment and music for the seniors to enjoy their last memories in the school. Further, the event was made memorable with the flashback memories that were shared by some seniors in the speech that created an emotional moment.

Principal and other faculty members wished all the students luck for their future endeavours.

“Basant Panchmi” is an occasion which marks the advent of the spring season and is also celebrated to worship Saraswati, the Goddess of knowledge and wisdom. This day was celebrated in our school with great fervour and enthusiasm.Yellow colour – representative of spiritual knowledge, is given importance on basant panchmi.

The whole school assembled together to pray and attain blessings from Goddess Saraswati to reach the epitome of knowledge. The pooja started with a beautiful Saraswati vandana and after that lunch was organised for all children. The children enjoyed the day, enlightened by the blessings of Maa Saraswati.

While 3-D printing has been around for decades, it has remained largely in the domain of hobbyists and designers producing one-off prototypes. And printing objects with anything other than plastics—in particular, metal—has been expensive and painfully slow.

Now, however, it’s becoming cheap and easy enough to be a potentially practical way of manufacturing parts. If widely adopted, it could change the way we mass-produce many products.

In the short term, manufacturers wouldn’t need to maintain large inventories—they could simply print an object, such as a replacement part for an aging car, whenever someone needs it.

In the longer term, large factories that mass-produce a limited range of parts might be replaced by smaller ones that make a wider variety, adapting to customers’ changing needs.

The technology can create lighter, stronger parts, and complex shapes that aren’t possible with conventional metal fabrication methods. It can also provide more precise control of the microstructure of metals. In 2017, researchers from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory announced they had developed a 3-D-printing method for creating stainless-steel parts twice as strong as traditionally made ones.

Also in 2017, 3-D-printing company Markforged, a small startup based outside Boston, released the first 3-D metal printer for under $100,000.

Another Boston-area startup, Desktop Metal, began to ship its first metal prototyping machines in December 2017. It plans to begin selling larger machines, designed for manufacturing, that are 100 times faster than older metal printing methods.

The printing of metal parts is also getting easier. Desktop Metal now offers software that generates designs ready for 3-D printing. Users tell the program the specs of the object they want to print, and the software produces a computer model suitable for printing.

Exams are often considered a ‘fear’ factor among children. Students of all age groups do undergo exam anxiety and have ‘exam phobia’ when it’s round the corner. Some do take it easy while some cannot.

The extent of exam stress is too much that drives them to take extreme measures. The fear of exams is more before the exams causing them to underperform on that day.

The following mentioned are few ways for overcoming fear and to reduce anxiety :

1. Start revising early. 2. Your own timetable. 3. Target for the day. 4. Allocate time for breaks. 5. Sleep well. 6. Taking Notes. 7. Write legibly. 8. Using highlighters. 9. Headings and subheadings. 10. Using flow chart. 11. Answer previous papers. 12. Don’t compare with your friends. 13. Practise meditation.
