HariOm Parents,
We had a great Friday yesterday with all your children yesterday. Due to windy weather we noticed quite a few did not attend the class. Our annual performance is on March 20th. So, it is very important we do our practise regularly.
Thank you for making sure quite a few children started doing Likhita Japa at home. We will continue collecting the sheets filled with Likhita Japa so our team Krishnas cowboys points.
We then proceeded to our routine. We said Om 3 times and then starting class with our Opening Prayers(Om Sahanavavatu).
1. Chanting My Prayers: Since all the kids who attended 3rd grade were already taught the My Daily Prayers we chanted it. For the benefit of the newcomers, the Daily prayers are in My Prayers Pg,11 of green book. The following are the shlokas
a. Karagrevasathe Lakshmi
b. Gangecha yamunechaiva
c. Saraswati namstubyam
d. Brahmarpanam
e. Subhamkaroti kalyanam
f. Karacharana kratamvaak
g. Kayenavacha manasaindriyeyva
2. Skit Practise
We started practice for our annual programme. All the children got the parts and they read the lines and costume was discussed with parents individually. Some children were missing. We request parents not to miss class. It gets very difficult as time pass by. Next week we will also start staging the play so make sure not to miss the class.
3. Bhagawat Gita : We did Bhagawat Gita chanting verse 24 and 25 verses. Please bookmark Swamiji's Bhagawat Gita teaching videos. Please chant regularly. Bookmark the youtube video
We will be recording 9 to 12 verse so we can get points for our house Krishna Cowboys. Please remind the children to continue with the practice.
Next few classes we would be doing shlokas and skit practice. This is just the fun time and also team building time. So, children enjoy this time. So, please make sure to be regular.
Next Class is February 14th. Please remember we do not have Balavihar February 21st.(Shivaratri day).
Pranaam,
Meena and Viji
