MYP 5 Math Learning Engagement- Clinometer - Trigonometry- Reena Narang

MYP 5 students made a clinometer as part of their trigonometry unit and then used it to measure the heights of things around school. They first started with the height of the door (known to be 7ft) to get an idea about how heights are calculated. They then moved around the building and calculated the heights of objects (like the wooden horse) and the swings in Primary park. The actual heights were then measured using a tape and then the error calculated. The students reflected on the activity. I am enclosing some pictures and student work with this mail.

The magic of AI Tutor -MYP 4 Physics- Sheeba Abraham

Objective of the Learning Engagement To reinforce key Physics concepts and improve conceptual clarity by using the Toddle AI Tutor for targeted revision, personalized questioning, and instant feedback, enabling students to identify misconceptions and strengthen their understanding in preparation for assessments. Learning Engagement: The AI tutor feature on Toddle was introduced to me by Dr. Meetu Agarwal. As the time for revision approached, I decided to utilize this tool to kickstart the revision process. Upon logging into the Create AI Tutor feature, several options were available. I chose the Mastery Builder, where I input the syllabus for the upcoming Physics assessment. The AI then generated a set of instructions along with an AI rating scale, allowing students to be placed at different levels: Beginning, Emerging, Developing, and Mastery. Once the students were assigned their respective levels, the AI guided them with progressively more challenging questions. Upon submittin...

Beyond the Bill: A Math Lesson in International Dining MYP 2 - Vani Upadhyay

Objective of the Learning Engagement: Culinary Math Expedition: A Real World Adventure in Mathematics where students explored the intricacies of having a meal in a foreign country. Details of the Learning Engagement: In the ever-evolving landscape of education, finding creative ways to blend theoretical knowledge with practical application is key to fostering deeper understanding and engagement among students. Embark on a 'Culinary Math Expedition' a dynamic learning experience that takes students on a mathematical journey through the world of international dining, fostering a deeper understanding of how discounts and taxes affects the final amount of bill and currency conversion. The journey began with forming groups, or "dining tables," tasked with choosing a foreign country and finding a café or restaurant whose menu is available online. Action: The Math Behind the Meal Armed with a detailed handout, each group listed their selected menu items and prices. They dre...

Making Biology Fun: A Hands-On Approach to Cell Organelles- MYP 1 Science-Bhavesh Bhadaraka

Objective of the Learning Engagement: The objective of this learning engagement is to help students understand the structure and functions of cell organelles through an analogical approach by comparing cell organelles to components of a house, café, or office. This approach will foster creativity, critical thinking, and a deeper understanding of cellular biology. Students will also develop their inquiry skills by acting as Socratic thinkers, generating critical questions for further exploration. Details of the Learning Engagement: Project Task : Students were assigned to build a sustainable model of a house, café, or working office using household materials. Analogical Connection: Students then connected components of their models to cell organelles, such as: Cell membrane: Entrance/security gate (controls what goes in and out) Nucleus: Manager’s office (controls overall operations) Mitochondria: Power supply room (provides energy) Endoplasmic reticulum: Hallways for staff moveme...
