HPS E-Newsletter mar/apr 2021 - MIDDLE SECTION

Learning needs to be engaging, personalized, collaborative, student-centered, and intrinsically motivating for students as they pursue topics that are of real interest to them. When learning environments include all students as contributors, co-collaborators and change agents, students begin to develop a sense of self-worth. Students’ voice, choice, and agency are central pillars through which deep learning rests. Technology can also be used for communication, collaboration, innovation, creativity and in turn action. Design thinking promotes empathizing with a problem, defining the problem, ideating possible solutions, creating a prototype; and in the end, putting it to the test and repeating the cycle, till desired and effective solutions are achieved. This enables humanity and technology to come together.

DIY-Compost Activity

Homemade compost helps reduce the waste produced by your home, keeps organic material out of landfills, and it's free. This does not mean bagged compost is harmful or bad for your garden; in fact, it is a great amendment if you are unable to build your own compost pile. But, if you have the choice, homemade is better. This activity not only motivates students to Go green. It also motivates them to sort their waste at their homes.

Composting is a process that works to speed up the natural decay of organic material by providing the ideal conditions for detritus-eating

Tectonic plates are part of the earth's lithosphere. The lithosphere is the outer shell of the planet. However, instead of a solid outer shell, the lithosphere is broken into smaller pieces. These pieces resemble a broken eggshell and are known as tectonic plates. This activity lets students manipulate tectonic plates and witness how pressure can cause plates to move apart from each other because of plate movement.

Thespian act is selectively planned by the teachers to reinforce the knowledge of discussed history lessons and made students more empowered through these performances that knowledge not only belongs to the facilitators, they can learn these skills from their peers through little research of their characters. These little Habibians had made this interactive learning strategy by adding color through their expressions and dialogue delivery.

The historian has to grapple with facts and their interpretation which plays an active role in construction of History. Young Habibian sharing historical events with his fellows.

Oratory Session

Here at HPS, we significantly emphasize on the verbal skills of our youth in equivalence with any other character-building quality. Our students have been working quite high spiritedly to enhance their soft skills and to establish a substantial set of jargon. We have always been proud and supportive of the efforts that our little learners have put in learning. Their constant pursuit to elevate themselves and remain determined to their goals would definitely take them places!
