Around Nine and Half years old Amit* Sarder has got admitted at our model school ‘Kishalaya Sishu Siksha Niketan’ last year in 2019. Now he is studying in 4th standard of the school. He can be spotted out among the crowd for his calm, dreamy and luminous personality. As in our school Computers Teaching initiates from 3rd standard, Amit has been attending the same from the very first day. Thus, Amit has now completed one year in learning Computers.
A little afraid by nature Amit has come over all his inhibitions with period of time and with joy of learning something very new. In his words, “I feel very excited like an adventure when I learn something new and try to do it on my own in Computer.”
Amit has now become quite conversant and comfortable in handling a Computer. He can change the screen Saver easily, able to set the time in the taskbar of computer. Amit* feels very excited as he could remain vigilant of the time spends in the Computer. Writing his, own name and many other things of his thoughts in the Ms Words and change those to various Fonts and Sizes in Computers is also a pleasing experience for him.
The most fascinating application for him is Paints. He draws figures, sceneries etc. of his imaginations. He colors the figures with his own imaginations. Sometimes he also thinks that he would do something big with the help of Computers.
Amit’s* father Mr. Bhubaneswar* Sarder who is a Car Driver by profession says, “Being a Driver I can earn only around Rs. 5000.00 per month. Staying in such remote village I never dreamt that my son could ever learn Computer. The chance he received is really a great fortune for us.”
