Our Class 1 students turned into real-life scientists this week as they stepped into the world of geology! In a hands-on learning session, our curious little explorers got up close and personal with Earth's natural treasures, observing six different types of rocks, discovering their unique colors, and learning how we use them every single day.
Our Class 1 students turned into mini-scientists this week during a hands-on vocabulary experiment! Instead of just memorizing definitions, they put two big words to the test: absorb and waterproof.
Armed with water, and plenty of curiosity, the students discovered that tissue paper and chalk easily absorbed the water. Meanwhile, a smooth white pebble proved to be completely waterproof, sending the water droplets sliding right off. It was a fantastic and memorable way to bring science and language to life!
Our class 5 scientist explored human biology by building working respiratory models. Collaborating in small groups, students used plastic bottles to represent the chest cavity, straws for the trachea, and rubber balloons to mimic the lungs and diaphragm.
This hands-on activity beautifully demonstrated the mechanics of inhalation and exhalation. It was a fantastic exercise that successfully combined teamwork, engineering, and oral communication with formative assessment.
Exploring Animal Habitat: A Hands-On Adventure
Our class 1learners turned into wildlife explorers ! To learn about where different animals live, the children used colorful bangles to "circle" and rescue animals into their correct habitats—such as the deep blue ocean, the hot desert, or the green jungle.
As they played, we observed their growing understanding of the natural world. This active learning approach allowed us to gently assess each child’s sorting skills, vocabulary, and fine motor control in a completely natural, stress-free environment.
