EARLY YEARS ACTIVITIES
First Day of School
Making Memories on their First Day at Solitaire Global Schools. Our tiniest tots at Solitaire Global Schools, Attapur, had a fantastic first day filled with excitement and FUN! They explored, learned, and played through engaging activities, both indoors and outdoors: Creative play: Building blocks, colouring, and more!
Outdoor adventures: Slides, swings, and laughter in the fresh air.
Memorable take-aways: These little masterpieces will forever remind them of their special first day!
We can’t wait to see their journey of learning and growth unfold throughout the year!
Ugadi Celebrations
Our young learners at Solitaire Global Schools, Attapur went all out to celebrate Ugadi. From learning about the significance of the festival to putting on a fantastic dance performance, they truly had a blast!
It’s so heartwarming to see our students, from Early Years to Grade 3, come together and enjoy such a special day.
Healthy Eating Habits
Solitaire Global Schools recently held a special assembly on the significance of healthy eating habits in the early years. Our learners showcased the importance of nutritious food through engaging acts like dance, speeches, and songs, spreading awareness about the impact of healthy eating.
We believe that instilling these habits early on is crucial for a lifetime of good health. Let’s continue to promote healthy eating in our community and set a positive example for the next generation. Together, we can make a difference!
Parent Orientation
The Parent induction session conducted at Solitaire Global schools, Attapur for grades EY1 to grade 3 provided an opportunity for educators to build trust and rapport with parents. By welcoming them into the educational setting and sharing information about the school’s vision, values, and teaching methodologies, parents gain confidence in the school’s commitment to their child’s well-being. The event was followed by an interactive session between the parents, facilitators and Academic coordinators.
Eid ul Fitr Celebrations
Eid ul Fitr, the festival that upholds the spirit of brotherhood, love, and secularism, was celebrated with great enthusiasm by the students of the Early Years & grades 1, 2, and 3. Through their performances, the learners brought out the significance of Eid. The spirit of Eid was well imbibed by the students. The dance performance on the tunes of Qawwali filled the environment with happiness and love.
Nature Walk
A nature Walk, as the name suggests, is walking through nature while sensing the atmosphere around – smelling the air, listening to sounds, and feeling the touches of the rocks, leaves, trees, mud, or anything. Nature walks for kids are as important as it is for grown-ups. This is how our tiny tots of early years began their day with a lovely stroll from the school to the nearest park exploring every inch and enjoying the surroundings with their friends and teachers.
Ice Breakers and More..
At the beginning of an academic year, the tiny toddlers are trained to get adjusted to the surroundings through various icebreaker activities. More focus is given to the development of fine and gross motor skills. Here’s a look at how the learners were engaged throughout the Early years.
Fun with letters
Kids identified letters and learnt the sounds of letters. Learners enjoyed the activity in a playful method.
Water ? Squeezing Activity
Toddlers enjoy the Water- Squeezing Activity, which strengthen and develop hands and arm mobility and coordination. Kids has a lot of fun during this activity!
Activity on Identifying the Numbers
Recognizing numbers is a vital skill and it helps students to develop mathematical skills. Kids learnt to identify numbers in a playful method.
PRIMARY ACTIVITIES
English Activity
Learners arranged themselves according to the first letter of their names . Learning objective to identify the alphabetical order.
Exploring Mime: A Creative Journey in Non-Verbal Communication
Introduction:
In this engaging mime activity, Grade 3 students embarked on a creative journey to explore the art of non-verbal communication. Through imaginative play and expression, students discovered the power of body language, facial expressions, and gestures in conveying emotions and telling stories without words. Learning Objectives: Develop an understanding of non-verbal communication. Enhance creativity and imagination through expressive movement. Practice empathy by interpreting and portraying various emotions. Improve confidence in public performance and presentation – Students express various emotions (happy, sad, surprised, angry, etc.) through exaggerated facial expressions and body language. Conclusion: Through this mime activity, Grade 3 students have embarked on a journey of creativity and expression. By exploring the art of non-verbal communication, they have not only developed their mime skills but also gained a deeper understanding of emotions, storytelling, and the power of body language.
GP- Activity
Grade 3 learners visited the printer room to find out the uses of printer in the school .
Science Activity: POSTER making on Scientific Enquiry.
Students were able to observe and describe the types of scientific enquiry.
MIDDLE & SECONDARY ACTIVITIES
GP Fieldwork Activity
Global Perspective Activity on Fieldwork Related to Plastic Pollution.
Grade 7 Alpha students did fieldwork on plastic pollution. During this activity, students went to the neighboring community to identify the type of plastic waste dumped in the open area. This hands-on activity will enhance their survey and interpreting skills, and they will gain first-hand knowledge regarding the types of plastic waste in our society.
Investigating Pulse Rate
Grade 7 students checked their pulse before and after exercising. They counted how many times their heart beat in 15 seconds and then multiplied it by 4 to find the beats per minute (BPM). After exercising, their BPM usually went up because their body needed more oxygen. This activity showed them how exercise affects their heart and why staying active is important for a healthy heart.
“Precision Through Pendulum: Averaging Small Distances & Time Intervals”
Students of grade 9 determined an average value for a small distance and for a short interval of time by calculating the period of oscillation of a pendulum by observing its oscillations and recording the time required for 10 swings. This period signifies the time taken for the pendulum to complete one full swing, serving as a fundamental metric for measuring smaller distances or intervals.
To enhance accuracy, students conducted multiple measurements and computed the average period. This systematic approach minimizes errors and yields a more reliable representation of the pendulum’s behaviour.
GP Activity
“GP Task- Individual activity- Grade 7 Ajax learners have done research on the types of waste generated from residential homes. They have collected samples of dry waste and earmarked them by categorizing them. It enhances their research skills and awareness skillset.”
Working on the Golden Record
Communication is an essential asset enabling humankind to forge an advanced civilization. Using languages from the Stone Age to our present digital information society, humans have connected and collaborated to accomplish remarkable feats. As the newly dawned Space Age progresses, learners are attempting to communicate with intelligent species beyond our world, on distant planets and in Earth’s far future..
Preparing Goods
Learner’s activity on a coordinated system of preparing goods for transport, warehousing, logistics, sale, and use i.e Packaging. They realised that packaging is the science, art and technology of enclosing or protecting products for distribution .”
