Overview

Learning doesn’t need to stop when the school gets over!!!

Let your children feel that life can be super fun and creative beyond school hours. And learning will happen silently.

A hybrid workshop: Though an online class, within the stint of this workshop they shall take a break from Zoom classes, and they will have a pre guided nature walk in a park/ garden / even on a terrace which will help them learn about their surroundings, and pick up some basic life skills. Along with writing their own creative pieces, they will paint their poems, do crafts to extend their imaginations.

What will they do?

The program will start with a book reading and storytelling session.
Followed by a brainstorming discussion on various elements of the story and the characters in the story, dwelling on their interconnectedness.
A pre-guided nature walk will help them activate their sensory observations.
After a brief guidance and with a well-thought flexible framework, the students will complete a sensory writing activity.
With a guided facilitation the students will exercise their creative writing muscles to polish their prose and poems.
They will illustrate and create craft on their written pieces.
The session will end with an opportunity for students to share their writing with others.

Goals

1. Nurturing the sense of wonder:

Nurturing the sense of wonder promotes curiosity!
How a tiny seed fall from the mother tree and goes down the soil and sprouts into a tiny little sapling, how a treefrog hops on to a tree trunk, how a busy bee settles on a flower to suck the nectar; the universe holds unlimited lessons for them!
If we can make them see this and get fascinated by how all these are so connected to each other, it will lead to a desire for deeper understanding.

2. Learning to notice small things in our surrounding:

The art of noticing is a skill.
If inculcated early, it will last a lifetime.They learn to notice how things in the natural world change over time. They develop a habit to pause and see these small moments. These encourage them to develop an awareness and appreciation for the world around them.
They seek answers to their self-phrased questions. And, learning to have and phrase the right questions can actually prove to be a more important than knowing the answers.

3. Learn Side By Side:

Learning that occur without the intention to learn is always deeper
What a child is looking at more closely ignoring the chaos around is his innate attitude towards science. Simply by stepping outside in the open, asking questions about observations, and navigating ways to find the answers to the questions they don’t know— they are bringing the scientific process in action, unknowingly.
And then when prompted to express them in their self-authored prose or poem, they are foraging the right words and constructing apt phrases, in the process inadvertently building their vocabulary and trying to find the correct grammatical way to proudly express to the world around them.
An interdisciplinary learning happens naturally and spontaneouly 😊.
