A Peek At Beaks- Little Fingers Create Magic Moments

   

 Everybody likes a good comeback story and this time we are back with a bang! 

 As truly said by Barack Obama, “ We remember, we rebuild and we come back stronger"

  We are glad to let you know how strong we have grown. Opening the gambit with the vision to excel has been the trend for us Mayoorites. Hence this time, we came up with a different initiative to create magic with paper circuits. Let me introduce you to yet another unique interesting enterprise taken by our students along with their zealous teachers.


               ‘A Peek At Beaks’ - Fun With Popsicle Flashlights - Grade 3

                                                              

Paper circuits is an activity with simple, easily sourceable materials that engages learners with basic circuitry.The main idea behind the  ‘Paper Circuits’ activity was to instill innovation and creativity among the students.

With an integrated approach in mind and a clear objective to execute a cross curricular activity, first, the students of grade three were encouraged to conduct research about different types of birds, their eating habits, habitat, their lifespan and then they were encouraged to discover and jot  the names of different birds in Arabic and Hindi. Math was used to calculate and compare  the lifespan in different birds. 

Later to take a step ahead into the world of innovation students were challenged to construct and design a circuit using LED, copper tapes and coin cell batteries.With "paper circuits," students learnt about circuits, design and built basic circuits on a piece of paper. Students assembled a circuit, learnt about open and closed circuits, and made an LED light up. This technique was finally used to light up the beaks of different birds and  create fun while learning.


Let’s take a closer look at the following videos to get a better idea about the activity.

A Chocolicious Story

“Design is intelligence made visible.” - Alina Wheeler Encouraging Stem Learning through Design Thinking Activity Grade 6 students recently had an exciting opportunity to apply design thinking skills in a real-world context by designing their own chocolate wrappers. This activity not only promoted creativity and innovation but also integrated Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) learning in a fun and engaging way. Considering the Weight, Name, Nutritional Facts, and Flavor As part of the design thinking process, students had to consider several factors in creating their chocolate wrappers. First, they needed to think about the weight of the chocolate, which would impact the size and design of the wrapper. Second, students had to come up with a catchy name for their chocolate that would appeal to potential customers. Third, they had to include accurate nutritional facts, which required them to apply mathematical skills in calculating the amount of...

E - Waste To Robots

  "Give e-waste a second chance, recycle for a sustainable advance!" The term "e-waste" is an abbreviation of "electronic waste". A key part of the definition is the word "waste" and what it logically implies – that the item has no further use and is rejected as useless or excess to the owner in its current condition. Third Graders Turn E-Waste into STEM Learning Robots                   The students of grade 3 recently showcased their innovative spirit and commitment to sustainability by transforming discarded electronics into functional robots. This hands-on project, led by Ms. Reena Fernades and supported by all other grade 3 teachers , provided a unique opportunity for students to explore the principles of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) while learning about the importance of recycling and responsible waste management . The project began with a discussion about the environmental imp...
