Orientation programme at Shivalik Public School, Phase 6, Mohali

An enlightening orientation programme on mathematics, aiming to revolutionise the way math is taught and learned across grades I to X, was conducted. The session placed a strong emphasis on innovative teaching methodologies through the use of over 35 virtual and physical math manipulatives, out of which 20 were demonstrated and taught in detail to the attending educators. The session was skilfully facilitated by Bhavishya, an expert in mathematics education and hands-on learning. All math teachers and mother teachers from the institution enthusiastically participated in the five-hour-long session, walking away with fresh insights and practical tools to enhance classroom engagement. The programme covered both offline and online activities, equipping teachers with the knowledge to make abstract mathematical concepts more concrete and relatable. Manipulatives such as tangrams, fraction bars, integer counters, geometric tiles, and algebraic identity tools, were used to illustrate critical topics, including multiplication, division, area and perimeter, rational numbers, fractions, algebraic identities, integers, LCM and HCF, among others.
