“ONE LEARN FROM BOOKS AND EXAMPLE, ONLY THAT CERTAIN THINGS CAN BE DONE. ACTUAL LEARNING REQUIRES THAT YOU DO THOSE THINGS.”
– Frank Herbert
Education is not only learning facts but training of minds to think. When we are having a good time, learning becomes easy and not a strenuous task. To make learning a joyous experience, Social Studies Week was observed in our school in the month of January for classes IV to IX.
The classroom became a hive of active learning with ardent students participating in an array of activities undertaken for classes IV-IX.
The details of the activities are as follows:
