New Year- New Unit


It was fun filled vacations for the students. The students returned with lots of excitement and joy. They shared their experiences on how they spent their holidays.


The students were looking forward to the new unit. They were shown a video related to the Transdisciplinary theme of the unit. The students had to identify with which TD theme the video is associated.


Treasure Hunt: As the provocation of the unit, the students were given clues to find the things related to the universe. The students were very delighted to find treasure with the help of clues.





























After the treasure hunt, the students generated the list of various clues that they found out. They came up with different names for the unit. The students then started working on the central idea and lines of inquiry.
