Priya Mol collects the palm leaves and inscribes Malayalam alphabets onto them herself
IN AN era dominated by smart classrooms and digital blackboards, a kindergarten teacher from Konni in Pathanamthitta district is reviving a centuries-old learning method in Kerala.
Priya Mol S, 46, is bringing history to life by teaching her students using palm leaves and a traditional narayam (stylus)—a technique passed down through generations. The method her grandfather used decades ago is now shaping the minds of her young pupils.
Priya collects the palm leaves herself, carefully inscribing Malayalam alphabets onto them. This hands-on, tactile approach not only connects children with nature but also offers them a lasting reference for their lessons.
