                                  POSTER MAKING ACTIVITY

                                  TOPIC: SYMMETRY IN NATURE

                                  CLASS VIII

                                  Many mathematical principles are based on ideals, and apply to an abstract, perfect world. This perfect world of mathematics is reflected in the imperfect world, such as in the approximate symmetry of a face divided by an axis along the nose. More symmetrical faces are generally regarded as more aesthetically pleasing. Not only in faces but “Symmetry “ is found everywhere in nature and is also one of the most prevalent themes in art, architecture, and design — in cultures all over the world and throughout human history. Symmetry is certainly one of the most powerful and pervasive concepts in mathematics.

                                  In order to make the students realize more importance of ‘Symmetry in Nature’ and to harness their maximum creativity regarding the topic, Mathematics Department conducted a ‘POSTER MAKING ACTIVITY’  on the topic “ SYMMETRY IN NATURE “  for class 8th during the zero period. Students showed great enthusiasm and really enjoyed learning Math with the help of colourful activity. They  made very beautiful and expressive posters. The astonishing posters made by the students very well expressed the theme of the Activity.

                                      Class UKG Puppet Show

                                      CLASS UKG PUPPET SHOW – (12 APRIL 2017)

                                      Puppets are fun for all ages and puppet shows are used as a means of entertainment and story telling.

                                      The tiny tots of UKG enjoyed a puppet show conducted by their teachers during the morning assembly on 12 April 2017. Stories about friendship, good manners, use of magic words and healthy eating habits were depicted through this show. The use of hand puppets of a variety of animals and birds and the interesting narration kept the young audience enthralled.

                                      The children loved the imaginative puppet play and enjoyed using the puppets to talk during the circle time, later. This role play not only helped them to develop confidence but also develop communication skills and express their ideas and feelings. They were also thrilled to enact their favourite animals, using hand puppets.
