REACTION PAPER
II. Summary:
The movie, Every Child Is Special, was about a certain child named
Ishaan Awasthi. Ishaan was a talented child; he can think outside the
box and paint with such passion and creativity. But he was not
understood by his teachers; he was only thought of as a mischievous
and a very naughty boy. He was often called an idiot, duffer, lazy and
crazy, even his parents didn't understand him. They only thought that
the boy was misbehaving because he did not want to go to school. It is
perhaps the structure and restrictions of the normal expectations of
the school system that rub him the wrong way, because one day, after
having been punished by being sent by the teacher to stand in the
hallway, he goes AWOL and wanders the streets, savoring the exciting
sights of tourist-film India. He appears to be somewhat hyperactive. If
his parents attempted to have him tested, it may be that he never sat
still long enough to get a diagnosis. After finding out that Ishaan will be
kicked out of school after the school year, his parents decided to send
him to a boarding school where Ishaan suffered more from his strict
teachers. These incidents crushed Ishaans confidence in him and he
became depressed, very depressed. He did not speak to anyone, not
even to his mother or his brother. No one would even try to help him
because they did not try to understand him.
Luckily he met Ram Shankar Nikumbh, the temporary art teacher, saw
himself in Ishaan, he stayed persistent to help Ishaan in his studies and
his life. Through his unconventional teaching methods and graceful
presence, Ishaans attention was caught up. Ram did everything to
understand Ishaans problem in reading and writing, he consulted
Ishaans parents and told them that Ishaan has dyslexia, wherein he
finds it hard to recognize letters and numbers. I love when he told
Ishaans father that in the Solomon Islands, villagers dont chop down a
tree when they want to clear land, but curse and hurl abuses at it, and
the tree withers and dies soon after. Ram helped Ishaan in every way,
first he gave Ishaan a confidence boost so that he will not be afraid to
express himself, and then, he also gave Ishaan lessons in writing,
reading and in math. Ram taught Ishaan using different methods; he
made learning fun by applying games to his lessons. Gradually, Ishaan
begun to improve in his studies, he has now little trouble in reading, he
can write properly and can solve math problems. Teaching should not
only be done in one way; we should use different ways to teach our
students because each and every one of us has a unique and special
talent. It is also good to understand the needs of our students; let them
be free free to imagine, free to learn in their own special way. Listen
to your students opinions and learn from it.
