SCIENCE
Light and Shadow
Force and Energy
Students enjoyed their Science lessons with the hands-on tasks planned for the topics ‘Light and Shadow’ and ‘Force and Energy’. They learnt about the 3 types of materials which does / does not allow light to pass through understanding the terms – solid, transparent and opaque. They observed the passage of light through clear water, paper with an oil patch, and book to understand the concept behind it. Understanding Shadows and its properties was done with the help of a torch light and the shadow it casts at different angles.
The topic ‘Force and Energy’ commenced with the students experiencing how force enables them to do different things like changing shape of the play dough and by giving it a desired shape, by moving, stopping and changing the direction of a moving ball by applying force. They learnt about the different types of forces by conducting hands on activities.
Activity 1 – Frictional Force - To understand the frictional force they were asked to hold a 1liter bottle initially, later on held the same bottle after applying oil and hold the same bottle, which they were unable to do so.
Activity 2 – Buoyant Force - To understand the buoyant force, they saw that when an object was immersed in a glass full of water, the water which was displaced was equal to the amount of force applied by water.
Conducting both the experiments helped the students to share many real life examples that they have seen, which led to a class discussion further.

Subject Integration week - Language & Performing Arts
"What we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge, and not knowledge in pursuit of the child". George Bernard Shaw
One way of discovering the curriculum with the children is integrating it across the board with other subjects and to do that we organized a Subject Integration Week in school during the week 9th August to 13th August. We integrated Language with Performing Arts through an array of activities. Integrated study brought together diverse disciplines in a comprehensive manner, enabling students to develop a meaningful understanding of the complex associations and influences within a topic. ‘Envirophilia-A Fancy Dress Party’ was organized for Grade I students. The little learners looked super excited as they came dressed on the theme of Plants and Aquatic Animals and spoke about the ‘Plant or Animal ‘that they played the role of, using their drama skills. They also carried props to convey their message. They explored the importance of SDG 14- ‘Life below Water’ and SDG 15- ‘Life on Land’ and made other students aware about them through their presentations. ‘The Edible Tales- Story on my Plate’ turned out to be a successful venture for Grade II students as they narrated their yummilicious stories with the help of creatively crafted fruit and vegetable salad using their vivid imagination and creative skills. This approach further developed the children’s ability to transfer their learning to other settings and correlate their sub conscious selves to conscious selves. The class was divided into Performers group and Audience group for these activities. The audience judged their peers’ performance on a Peer Assessment Rubric. This was only possible because they were able to more closely relate to real-world linguistic connections in an integrated curriculum approach. We were amazed by the meticulous efforts shown by the students. It was altogether an amazing week and we loved every bit of it.

ICT
The journey of a computer has come a long way since 1940 and has emerged as a necessity in our day-to-day lives. It is so deeply rooted around us that its existence in the field of space research, medicines and many more can be directly connected with the evolution of mankind. Keeping this in mind, the educator discussed about various calculating devices which were invented, such as Abacus, Pascaline etc., which led to the development of computers.
The students recorded their responses in Flipgrid and shared their reflections with their peers. They also collaborated with their peers and shared their research based on classification of computers on the basis of its uses, sizes, price and processing speed in a Padlet. The chapter was concluded with revision and text book exercises.

ENGLISH
On returning after a refreshing summer break, the students shared some of the chores they were involved in during the vacation. The learning commenced with assessing the prior knowledge of the Punctuation using the technology tool-Padlet. As recapitulation they also attempted a Non-Chronological Report. To stir their eagerness to travel, they were introduced to a new lesson ‘Holiday Destination’. The knowledge was intensified by creating a brochure on MS Word integrating the language with ICT. The inquisitiveness of Sherlock Holmes was paid equal importance with the practice of an MS Form created on ‘The Adventure of Beryl Coronet’. The students continued learning the techniques of organising Paragraph Writing using the Hamburger Graphic Organiser, creating a paragraph on ‘Things I love about my country’ and ‘What I want to do for my locality’. The writing activity brought about a societal consciousness among the little intellectuals. They also practiced the concepts done for their upcoming unit tests. In Grammar, they were familiarized with the concept of ‘A Sentence’ and its types based on functions and expressions.

ENGLISH
The students continued their learning with a new style of writing i.e. Non-Chronological Report Writing. It helped them develop the skill of organizing certain pieces of information on the given topic. The report sample and the graphic organizer helped them categorize the facts and structure the report. Art was integrated with this topic as the students made an effort to illustrate an animal/ bird in the report. Through this concept, the SDG 15 - Life on Land was touched upon. The students’ clarity of understanding the topic was reflected through their attempt of the practice questions.
The leaners developed their grammatical knowledge by learning more about the types of Pronouns and their application. The students actively participated in the lessons sharing their responses in the chat box. A PowerPoint Presentation and a video about the topic “Pronouns” made the session interactive wherein the students shared their previous knowledge about the concept. The lesson culminated with the practice exercises from Book.
The expression of sentences is closely knitted and connected with one of the basic elements in language learning i.e. Punctuation. A paragraph without any punctuation was shared with students enabling them to identify the errors in it and eventually helping them deduce the function of each punctuation mark. This particular concept will be continued in the next month.
