Well, you all know the meaning of art. Art simply means the various branches of creative activities such as music, painting, literature and dance etc. It is the application of creative skills or human imagination into reality.
Performing arts is a procedure to develop skills within ourselves. It is considered as the best way to point out our talent and inner ability. It is totally depends on the one's personal interest and hobby, that grows into passion further leads to career. It is the only art form that becomes an expression of an individual’s identity and makes him a renowned personality such as Lata Mangeshkar, a singer; Harry Potter, an actor, Saroj khan, a dancer and so on.
Besides individual's identity, art opens our creative nature in front of the whole world, acting as a tool to sharpen our creativity and intelligence. Art forms give us a chance to exhibit our ability or talent in public interests. It can be sold to the public in order to earn high rate of income. One can arrange coaching classes for others in his specialised art form. Moreover, arts are deeply collaborative in nature, helping us to expand our visions, fosters our compassion and enhancing one’s memory power.
Schools have started giving due importance to skills besides academics. Schools are arranging various courses for students in music, singing, dancing, painting, sports etc. in order to develop their interests in various co curricular activities and opens the doors for them to persue as career in their life. CBSE also gives an equal weightage to these skills as academics in assessment criteria. Schools are now also considered as the foundation of performing art. Performing arts also prepares us to solve problems in a relaxed manner.
In the end, Performing arts sharpens our mind and helps to understand this world in a better way.

“Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference.”

As we all know India is the land of unity in Diversity where people of all religion live together with brotherhood. This unity is a footstep towards development. Any idea for development is just a myth without the collective participation of the whole nation.
Unity among Indians is considered as the strength of our nation. Obviously, working together gives birth to new ideas, which encourage us to start business or industry, leads to success. It helps us to fight for our rights. Thinking together can make better plans for the future of our country. Together we can bring a change in our society. We can voice against various social issues in our society. For instance, save the girl child, crimes, child labour, cleanliness etc. We can educate the old generation about various recent developments in every fields. We should teach the citizens of our country about the various schemes and initiative started by the government for their betterment. We should start giving respect to religion of each other, start following the customs and traditions of each other very happily. That is to say, we all should be tolerant towards all religions, which promotes unity among us. Further, this unity promotes brotherhood in our country. It reduces various disputes from the Country and bring peace among people in India.
No doubt, every individual has its own thoughts, views, backgrounds, religion yet we need to unite for the sake of our country, for the sake of our coming generations. This unity will make our country stronger.
Thus, United India is not just a concept for political stability and security but also an essential element for the overall development of the nation. So, we all should unite in spite of variations.
Thank you.

Where there is a will, there is a way.
Q. Every difficulty is an opportunity for development. All that one requires is the will power to succeed You are deeply impressed by the heroic lives of great people like Helen Keller, Stephen Hawking, Christy Brown etc. who are living proofs of strong will power. Taking hints from the MCB unit ‘Achievers’ and using your own ideas, write an article on the topic ‘Where there is a will, there is a way’. [Class VII, SA- II, 2016-17 davunit8.org]
HINTS
Will-power— greatest driving force----helps— gets through difficulties----who loses heart— never achieves his goal---- life— full of struggle, determination and calmness---- provide inspiration— great people— struggled hard--- got success--- Beethoven --- deaf— famous.
WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY
- BY: ROHIT
The famous saying, ‘Where there is a will, there is a way’ emphasizes the strong Will-power, desire and determination. It is our hard work, enthusiasm, will or determination that brings success in our life. This is applicable in all walks of life and to everyone from students to professionals.
A person with strong Will-power can make his way even in thorns because he has energy and confidence to achieve his goals as in the story The Thirsty Crow in which the crow found the jug of water. Even the water level is too low, he succeded in drinking the water because of his Will-power. The concept of way in life also depends on our Will-power. Because as one wills or desires, he gets, not necessarily immediately. Humans have many wills. As one fulfilled, other takes birth in our mind. It is considered as the greatest driving force behind what we achieved in our life. It pushes the person and their limits to get extraordinary results of their activities.
Moreover, our life is full of struggle at every step. It is our Will-power that encourages us to face all difficulties on the way to success with an optimistic attitude, determination and calmness. Many great people had struggled hard despite their limitations and got success. Such as Beethoven was a deaf yet he was famous. (for composer of music). Similarly Stephen Hawking, Helen Keller, Christy Brown, Mahatma Gandhi etc are the memorable personalities and an inspiration for us.
Moreover, our life is full of struggle at every step. It is our Will-power that encourages us to face all difficulties on the way to success with an optimistic attitude, determination and calmness. Many great people had struggled hard despite their limitations and got success. Such as Beethoven was a deaf yet he was famous. (for composer of music). Similarly Stephen Hawking, Helen Keller, Christy Brown, Mahatma Gandhi etc are the memorable personalities and an inspiration for us.
It is our determination and storng Will-power that helps us to find the way. We become more focused towards our goals in order to achieve them. This persuades us to take risks at any costs in order to achieve our goals successfully. After that we strategize our daily routine or activities. We should be determined towards our goals without bringing any alteration in them. Once a goal is achieved, only then move on to another goal. Remember the words of lord Krishna, “If you fail to achieve your goal, change the strategy not the goal”.
Thus, this age-old adage is a powerful reminder of our potential and the ability to overcome obstacles. With this idea we can attain anything in our life. We should take every difficulty as an opportunity for development. After all, person who loses his heart never achieve his goals in life.
WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY

Joint family-a Godsend for growing children
Q. You are Riya / Rajeev. You are to give speech in the Morning Assembly on the topic “Joint family-a Godsend for growing children”. Taking ideas from your Reader Book Unit-Relationships and using the hints given below write a speech in about 150 words.
Hints:
• Urbanization and nuclear family gaining popularity
• Family- important in shaping children personality
• Values and attitudes- shaped in a joint family
• Learn to be patient, share things, sensitive and balanced
• Joint family—a Godsend for Growing Children [Class VII, Term I, 2017-18 davunit8.org]
Honourable Principal, respected Teachers and My Dear Friends, Today I would like to draw your kind attention towards ‘Joint Family—A Godsend for Growing Children’.
Do anyone of you have heard from your Granny or mother that they used to live in big houses with a huge family of aunts, uncles, their children, grandma and grandpa? They used to do everything together. It was so much fun. But now urbanisation and nuclear families are gaining popularity. Because of this children of today are missing on the traditional practices of a joint family. A family plays an important role in framing the personality of a child. It is probably the most effective social support unit providing a secure and safe atmosphere for the child. Our values and attitudes are shaped by our families and these are the values that leave a lasting impression on children.
Children in the joint family get the opportunity to enjoy and cherish the love and affection of loved ones around. Children who live in a joint family lead a sheltered life surrounded by their elders. They learn the importance of sharing, being patient, and simultaneously, their lives get enriched while living in a joint family. As the child gets to share the things with his cousins he grows into a person who learns to live with people around. This way the child grows to be more sensitive and well-balanced.
The security of the child is also ensured. The child is nurtured with the love and affection of the grandparents and not the unruly maid-servants. But, in a joint family the parents should make it sure that they should spend quality time with their children.
Thank you.

Q. The trafficking of exotic wildlife and wild animal parts is leading to an ecological disaster.

You are Kritika/Karan, Environment Club secretary, Oswal Public School, Patna.
• Trafficking of exotic wild life seen
• Over population, urbanisation & industrialization
• Commercial attitude of people
• unethical poaching
• extinction of wild lives & rare species
• ecological disaster
• stop unlawful poaching & protect wild lives
• stringent wild life act
• eco-friendly attitude of people [HY 2023, davcsp.org]
Honourable judges, respected teachers and dear friends! Good morning! I am here to speak on the topic “Man is the worst enemy of his fellow creatures”.
No animal kills others unless it is hungry. No animal destroys the habitat of any other animal. Population is increasing day by day with no leaps and bounds. Consequently, needs and requirements also rising. It is the only man who kills the other animals for fulfilling his own needs. Due to rapid industrialisation and urbanization, man has started destroying nature. Trafficking of exotic wildlife, unethical poaching have become very common practice. Many creatures fall a prey to his needs for medicines, fur, nail polish etc. He does not spare even Mother Nature. Wild life and rare species are at the verge of extinction.
It is the commercial attitude of people which is responsible for deforestation, results in natural disasters such as earthquakes; floods; land sliding; tsunami, global warming, ecological imbalances and so on. Sea level is continuously increasing day by day. Cyclones is also occurring causing heavy rain, strong and dusty winds, tornadoes. To say, it is the only man who is responsible for ecological disaster.
It is high time. It is the need of hour a stringent wildlife act should be enacted by the Indian Government. We should stop poaching, which is an unlawful activity and wild lives should be protected. Besides, eco friendly attitude should be adopted by us/ people.
Thank you.

The tradition of Mother's Day is not a recent phenomenon. It has deep roots in history and has been celebrated in various forms across different cultures.

Mother's Day is a chance for us to acknowledge these efforts and honor the incredible women who have shaped our lives.

INTRODUCTION OF CUET
By: Arjun
Change is the law of nature. With the passage of time, innovations are constantly taking place in each and every field of the society. And the introduction of CUET is the recent dimension in the field of education. It is modified version of CUCET, began in 2010. It is introduced by the Ministry of Education for admission to pursue undergraduate and post graduate courses in reputed colleges and universities.
To start with, there are so many benefits of CUET. It is now considered as a common platform for admission to central universities. To say is, it is accepted by various universities across the country. It allows the meritorious students to take admission to the course and college or university of their choice or preference. Besides, giving an opportunity to meritorious students, it provides an equal opportunity to all the students to prove their abilities and secure a seat to their desired university based on their exam scores. This also led to the dependency on board exams. It has reduced the burden and stress of students of other multiple entrance examinations too and suicide cases among students.

CUET
By: Anjali
As a student preparing for undergraduate admissions, I believe that the introduction of the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) by the University Grants Commission (UGC) is a welcome move. CUET will streamline the admission process, reducing the burden on students who previously had to appear for multiple entrance exams.
This standardized test will ensure a fair and transparent selection process based on merit, rather than relying solely on board exam scores. It will also provide an equal opportunity for all students, regardless of their background or the board they have studied under.
CUET will not only simplify the admission process but also help in assessing a student's aptitude and knowledge in a uniform manner. This will ultimately benefit the students by enabling them to secure admissions to universities based on their overall performance rather than just their board exam scores.
In conclusion, the introduction of CUET is a step in the right direction towards creating a more inclusive and merit-based admission system for undergraduate programmes.
