There shouldn't be any doubt that we are not aware of the answer. 😺The reason is known to all of us. It's hidden some where or the other in our subconscious mind. So let's close our eyes🧖 for a while and think various reasons behind conducting and various reasons of students and teachers participation in morning assembly. 😊

    

However, the meaning of assembly is hidden in the word itself which means-👬👭  'To assemble'. It means formal gathering. A sense of    togetherness🌍 is developed when people gather for assembly.

As house is made of bricks🏚️ similarly assembly is made up of morning prayer✝️🕉️☪️, yoga,🧘 hymn, 🎼thought of the day✳️, facts,🔠 general knowledge,📚 principal's and teacher's address, 👤anchoring, etc. And when love, emotions and respect for each other prosper into house; the house is known as home🏘️ and side by side when positivity, creativity, proper management, collaborative learning, confidence, teamwork, reflective and introspective thoughts prosper into assembly then assembly is called LEARNING.

School Assembly is an outgoing event which generates ample opportunities to learn. It makes pupil to examine self, to identify their strengths, to locate the source of setback, to update the pattern of thinking, to figure out the problems going through the surrounding, to formulate scripts, to integrate with one another, to stretch imagination and to associate with best reflective contents. 

What should be the base of the Assembly

Proper Management: The proper management means proper setup. An effective schools' assembly take place with proper planning and organizing. Planning bridges the gap between where we are and where we want to go. Correspondingly, schools conduct its assembly with proper planning and organizing and it all take place with proper coordination, team work hard and smart work.

Assembly should hit Affective Domain: Affective domain means the content should not be confined to knowledge level rather the main purpose of the assembly should make students check their moral compass by examining their hearts. Different stories, poems, speeches should be as such that children should able to compose their thinking pattern. 

A medium to prepare students to be fearless: It's a common tendency for most of the people to be nervous on stage. There are students good at academics but when they come to present themselves, they become apprehensive and hesitant. As I mentioned above that being apprehensive in facing audience is a first very common disease that cannot be cured by medicine. It is cured only by practicing with proper planning, positive intention, consistency, guide and hope. Assembly assesses the opportunities to make students speak maximum to face others eyeballs confidently. 

It promotes collaborative learning and team work: It is easy to shine individually because a person deals with self. But, we are social beings and school is considered as one of the best agencies of socialization. So, adjusting with peers is one of the aims of school that needs to be cultivated continuously. So, participating and preparing contents in a group lead modern approach of learning and promoting collaborative work. Furthermore, it also helps students to focus on information and work exchange pattern rather information received and delivered traditional approach. A school is not a place of isolation but it's a formal agency of socialization. Students land in school; come from different houses bring varieties of cultures, belief system and perspectives. The assembly brings all forms of people under one umbrella. They all stand together as a family. They form a sense of togetherness.
