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 movement (

Objective of the Learning Engagement: To empower students to apply the principles of physics in the product design process, fostering innovative thinking skills by integrating scientific understanding with creative design techniques to develop a product. Details of the Learning Engagement: In the physics class, students explored key concepts such as center of mass and moment, and conducted an investigation into the principle of moments. Building on this foundational knowledge, they applied these physics concepts in a hands-on project by integrating them with product design skills. The task involved creating a mobile structure, where students had to consider the balance and distribution of weight to ensure the structure's stability. This collaborative project allowed them to design and construct a functional, aesthetically pleasing mobile, while deepening their understanding of how physics principles can be applied in real-world design solutions. Impact of the engagement on students

Objective of the Learning Engagement:  Blind stork Test- Students will collect primary data and create box and whisker plot by recording the data live Details of the Learning Engagement: Our Grade 10 students recently participated in an engaging statistics activity that brought data analysis to life. As part of the lesson, students collected real-time data by measuring how long their peers could stand on one leg while blindfolded. This live data formed the basis for creating box-and-whisker plots, with students focusing on the five-point summary: minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum. To enhance their learning experience and offer differentiation, students were also given the opportunity to create an additional graph of their choice based on the same dataset. This allowed them to explore different ways of representing data and broaden their understanding of statistical concepts. Some chose to create histograms, scatter plots, or line graphs, highlighting their in
