Making Pluto Great again, the story of learning.

Posted by Rihanna Dsouza on December 31st, 2019

A significant day in for humanity was the day the plants went down from nine to eight. It was 24th August 2006 when the International Astronomical Union downgraded the planet pluto to a “Dwarf Planet.” Upunitll 2006, all celestial objects that went around the sun were called “planets.”Then the distinctions were needed to be made more specific since this was conflicting with many other existing bodies. Then the scientist came up with three critters to define a planet. As a result of this, Pluto Demoted to a dwarf planet. Even since that day, the story of pluto become some-what of a biopic of learning. Schools have been narrating this story and also teaching kids the importance of acceptance using it. 

Holistique Learning has been organizing Pluto Demoted Day Assembly For School children for many years now. The idea behind this exercise is to educate the kids about the importance of change. There are many ways to teach children valuables lessons and stories such as this one work the best. Kids are made to assemble on the day of Pluto demotion and told this heart touching story. The essence lies in the personification of Pluto and the tale of sorrow. Its journey from a planet to a dwarf planet is an underrated tale worth sharing.

Parents at first heard of this assembly and thought it was futile until they noticed it’s benefits. We, as a society, often ignore the impact good stories can have on young minds. When a child is given instructions, they are never in the right mind to accept it. But when they are disguised as stories, with hidden meaning and morals -- it is sure to make a lasting impression. “My son was narrating the story of Pluto on the drive back from school. This Pluto Demoted Day Assembly For School kids is unique from anything else I’ve seen,”: said one of the proud parents.

With such simple activities, the team at Holistique Learning can make learning fun. They believe that a childhood filled with positive morals and learnings is a reflection of what the future will hold. Thier focus is not limited to emotional growth only. With a wide array of activities to pick from, they ensure the child develops physically, socially, creatively, and intellectually. The idea of “Do-not-teach” has helped share the minds of thousands of children already.

The advantages of such activities and assemblies are that they are cost-effective and easy to execute for a school. Deriving meaning from such small moments is the bases of Holistique Learning. They believe that the story of Pluto Demoted to a dwarf planet is one that entails sprinkles of hope within a failure. The idea that the plant was disbanded from its group does not discredit its qualities. Schools are quickly warming up to the concept of moral-based learning, and parents are the first to advocate them. With establishments like Holistique Learning, the enlightenment of our kids can pave the path to a healthier future.
