  Today's age of  twenty first century it is also the age of information and technology (IT). Every aspects of life are related to science and technology. Now information and technology is using in education field for making learning process successful and interesting for students and teachers. Present 21st century education is student centric education. students learn from multi sources and for this reason use of ICT and multimedia is very much essential in educational field and simultaneously teacher's knowledge of ICT and Multimedia is required.

Teacher use ICT and skills for making teaching learning process easy and interesting. Now a days ICT are transforming schools and classrooms a new look by bringing in  new curriculum based on real world problems, projects, providing tools for enhancing learning , providing teachers and students more facilities and opportunities for feedback. ICT also helps teachers, students and parents to come together. It also helps teachers to update the new knowledge, skills to use the new digital tools and resources.

The COVID 19 pandemic has affected the students learning were lessons are taught online. Only the higher classes from IX to XII  are taking the normal class as usual. For the lower classes from PP to VII are teaching through online. This time I taught class II English on the topic "Domestic Animals". I used WeChat apps to to deliver the lesson. I explained the lesson through short video clips. students watched the video clips and they were actively engaged in the activity. All the students were able to complete their work successfully. My lesson objectives are fulfilled. 
 
Most of the parents support or help  their children while doing the activity. But there are some problems that we face while teaching lesson  through online. Some parents don't have smart phone ,there  is network problems  in some places. For those students who don't have smart phone, I went to their homes  and taught the lesson. ICT play important role in 21st century teaching and learning. It helps students to develop knowledge and skills.
