Objective of the Learning Engagement:  Understanding of Direct Variation and the Constant of Proportionality Details of the Learning Engagement:  In the " Proportions in Action " activity, conducted for both sections of Grade 9 Extended Math at RO MPH, students engaged in identifying and connecting tables, graphs, and equations with six different real-life situations representing direct variation. The activity involved pre-provided tables, graphs, and equations that students had to analyze and match with the given scenarios. The activity required students to paste their matched findings on chart paper. Impact of the engagement on students and reflection as a teachers: This visual representation helped reinforce their understanding of direct variation and the constant of proportionality. By working with multiple formats of information, students enhanced their ability to interpret and connect mathematical relationships in practical contexts. - Surendra Bisht & Pooja Sharma

I have been advising teachers on differentiation and adaptive learning as the best ways to support each child. This approach evolves based on the individual needs of each student. Now in my second year of conducting mainstream Interdisciplinary Unit (IDU) lessons, I have found satisfaction in focusing on cohort planning. Key components I consider crucial for delivering my lessons effectively include seating arrangement, note-taking, time management, and aligning the class with the relevant topic. I aim to ensure that every child gains some understanding of the topic, with at least 90% of the class producing written work. The remaining 10% will require one-on-one attention, either during the lesson or in an individualized learning time (ILT) session. Additionally, pairing these students with peers who work well in buddy systems—under a set protocol to avoid disruption—can be beneficial. A well-laid plan that aligns my expectations with the students’ output helps gauge the effectivenes

Objective of the Learning Engagement: For a High -Quality learning and teaching -developing ATL skill-Students will develop their Approaches to Learning (ATL) communication skills by engaging in peer assessment, where they will practice giving and receiving meaningful feedback. This process will help them reflect on their own understanding, improve their work based on peer suggestions, and provide constructive feedback to others in a supportive and respectful manner. Details of the Learning Engagement: In this learning engagement, students designed a lab report for their investigation on how different materials affect the thermal transfer of an insulated object. As part of the lab report, students formulated a clear research question, proposed a hypothesis, identified the variables, listed the required apparatus, and wrote a step-by-step logical method to conduct the investigation. Once their reports were completed, each student was assigned a peer’s work to assess. The teacher provide

Objective of the Learning Engagement: Enhance problem solving and collaborative skills through a robbery investigation task involving Proportions and Percentage Details of the Learning Engagement: Students investigated a staged robbery case , with each station containing hidden clues in the form of proportion and percentage-based questions. They took on roles such as venom vets, cash trackers, space wizards, and chrono sleuths, strategizing in teams to analyze clues, eliminate suspects, and eventually solve the case. This dynamic setup also promoted differentiation in terms of process, environment and content. Impact of the engagement on students and reflection as a teacher: The activity fostered teamwork and problem solving skills with a deeper understanding of Proportions and Percentages. The differentiated roles allowed students to engage with the task as per their preferences. As a teacher, I observed that children were contributing to the task and were engaged as they took owners

Objective of the Learning Engagement:  Students will understand the benefits of yoga for physical and mental health. Students will practice yoga under the guidance of their peers. Details of the Learning Engagement: In the lesson, the class began with a brief discussion on the importance of physical fitness and mental well-being, introducing yoga as a method to achieve both. A student, who had prepared a PPT, presented the key benefits of yoga, including flexibility, strength, stress relief, and mental clarity, using visuals and simple explanations. The presentation was interactive, with students asking questions. Following this, the same student led a live demonstration of basic yoga poses such as Mountain Pose (Tadasana), Warrior Pose (Virabhadrasana), Tree Pose (Vrikshasana) explaining correct alignment and breathing techniques. Students were encouraged to ask questions and clarify doubts during the demonstration. Impact of the engagement on students and reflection as a teacher: The

Objective of the Learning Engagement: Students will be able to accurately calculate and interpret the mean, median, mode, and range of a given data set, and apply these concepts collaboratively to solve problems with missing values, demonstrating critical thinking and effective communication skills in a flipped classroom environment. Details of the Learning Engagement: Averages in Action:" The Spider Web Challenge " Our grade 10 MYP students recently delved into the world of averages with the “Average Spider Web” activity, revisiting mean, median, mode, and range. In this hands-on session, students worked in groups to fill in missing values, applying their critical thinking and mathematical skills collaboratively. The learning didn't stop there! In a true flipped classroom approach, students took the lead by explaining their findings and strategies to their peers. This method encouraged deeper understanding, communication, and confidence as they taught and learned from on
