On the fourth day of the Sundarban Faculty Training, all four teachers — Chandra, Rupa, Debrani, and Brihaspoti — came to Cheenta Academy’s Kalighat office.
In the previous week, they were asked to collect videos of local visiting spots that could become tourist attractions. They shared some of these videos, and together we made an initial roadmap for Sundarban tourism.
After that, the group started reading about the Sundarbans from Wikipedia to build general knowledge about their own region. The teachers then learnt about age-appropriate General Knowledge questions for children aged 5 to 14. Each teacher prepared 20 unique questions for students.
The session also included training on Google Sheets, where the teachers practised entering students’ names and details. Later, they had a combined learning session focused on বাংলা যুক্তাক্ষর (Bengali conjunct letters), where they created words using them. Finally, they solved some counting sums and discussed the solutions.
The fourth day was full of activities. It helped the teachers connect tourism ideas, subject learning, and digital skills. It also encouraged them to prepare educational materials suited for young students.
