SLCs & PASSION PROJECTS

PASSION PROJECTS

Grade III - NOUNS

“A great leader’s courage to fulfill his vision comes from passion, not position.” John C. Maxwell

Learning and learning outcomes are more meaningful to students when we engage their passions, unleash their creativity, and give them time and tools for innovation. Learning tends to become easier when we actually want to do something we are interested in doing. And when students are able to pursue an interest or passion, rather than feeling like all their learning paths are prescribed.

Passion Project brings classrooms together by encouraging each other to pursue their passions. Grade III students were given the topic ‘Nouns’ and were asked to present it in any form like a rap song, a PPT, a collage or by writing a paragraph. In this activity students were engaged in self-reflection of the learning process. This helped students develop their self evaluation and presentation skills. They mastered working on Google Slides, Quizizz and Jamboard.

STUDENT LED CONFERENCES

Grade V

English

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. It is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.”

A student-led conference is led by the students. The role of the classroom teacher is that of a facilitator.

Students of Grade V participated with great zeal and enthusiasm. The SLC helps them accept responsibility for their learning. Students organized this conference and presented wonderful stories from the Read & Grow program in the form of Poems, Rap songs, plays and drama. They mastered working on Google Slides, Story Jumper, Comic Strip at such a tender age and with great finesse. Students were divided into groups of five members each. Learners led the session, giving both students and teachers insight into their work and their areas of struggle. The students came up with innovative ways of expressions. The SLC was the perfect platform to do all that.

SLCs motivate students to engage in self-reflection of the learning process

Grade VI

English

I do believe something very magical can happen when you read a book. - J. K. Rowling

SLC- II gave an opportunity to the students to explore the miraculous world of books. They presented the stories from the Read and Grow Books. The students had complete autonomy- from choosing the story to the way they wanted to present it. This gave them a sense of freedom and responsibility and honed their decision- making skills. The overall presentation and team collaboration was commendable. The students were very confident and their mastery in using technology such as Google Slides, Storyjumper, etc. was quite evident. The SLC had helped the students in not only developing their critical thinking skills but also the creative thinking skills and had brought the magical world at their fingertips.

Grade VII

Social Science

Self- study, in a sense of learning by yourself without anybody teaching you anything, has an enormous value. - Robert Kraft

The students of Grade VII got an opportunity to self- learn some of the topics from their Social Science books. This highly boosted their self- confidence. The onus of learning was totally on the students. The students invested in their own learning and thus developed a growth mindset. The SLC helped promote a school culture of engagement and growth and let the students play an active role in planning their own learning. The teacher acted as a facilitator and let the students be the in charge of leading the presentations.

The topics were presented in quite innovative ways such as News Channel Interview, Street plays, Slogan writing, Banner making, Google slides, Quiz Show, Prezi Slides, etc.

SLC- II has definitely left a huge impact on the process of self- learning.
