Math, mindfulness, and more, young learners shine here

To make learning more interactive and fun, Apeejay School, Model Town, Jalandhar, recently conducted an engaging number formation activity for the students of Class IV. Titled Forming Numbers, Strengthening Minds, the session focused on enhancing the students’ understanding of numerical concepts.

In this activity, students were given a set of digits and were asked to form the largest and smallest possible numbers. The hands-on nature of the session allowed young learners to grasp the logic behind place value and number structure, enjoyably and memorably. The approach was simple yet impactful, offering students the opportunity to experiment and learn through doing.

The children enthusiastically participated and applied their reasoning skills to form different number combinations. Teachers noted that the students showed improved understanding of the topic and enjoyed working individually and in groups. The method helped in developing both critical thinking and collaboration skills.

The activity served as a refreshing break from traditional classroom teaching. It promoted learning through exploration and play, which aligns with the school’s aim of fostering conceptual clarity from an early age.

Class VII learns the art of mindfulness

In addition to the mathematics activity, the school also held a special session for Class VII-B students, aimed at improving mental focus and emotional well-being. The mindfulness session introduced students to the importance of staying present and attentive.

In a world where distractions are plenty, the session offered a much-needed pause. Through guided breathing exercises and short reflection activities, students were taught how to slow down, observe their thoughts, and concentrate on the present moment.

The session was well received by the students. They expressed how the practice helped them feel calm and more aware. Teachers also observed a noticeable improvement in the students’ focus and behaviour during class after the session.

By introducing such initiatives, the school aims to build not only academically strong students but also emotionally balanced individuals. The session was a reminder that academic excellence goes hand in hand with mental clarity and well-being.

Through such activities, be it strengthening numeracy skills or cultivating mindfulness, Apeejay School, Model Town continues to offer a well-rounded education. These sessions reflect the school’s vision to nurture confident, focused, and thoughtful learners who are ready to take on the world.
