Sharing Best Practices on Position, Movement and Direction by Ms. Renuka & Ms. Farhat
Differentiated learning in the mathematics topics of position, movement, and direction involves tailoring instructional methods and materials to meet the diverse needs of students. This approach ensures that all students, regardless of their ability levels, can understand and engage with these concepts.
Four activities were carried out during the hands-on activity session , to make the learners understand the topic in the best possible way and the activities were in increasing order of difficulty starting from simpler activities to complex level activities. By using these differentiated strategies, teachers can create a more inclusive and effective learning environment that addresses the diverse needs of their students in the topics of position, movement, and direction.

Sharing Best Practices on Transformation by Mr. Sidhant Joshi
A geometric transformation would mean to make some changes in any given geometric shape. It is often useful in mathematics to see things in different perspectives. You see geometric transformations every minute of every day: whenever you walk around an object, you see a rotation. When you see an image of an object, it is a projection. When you move an object, you see a translation. When you look in a mirror, you see a reflection.
Activity: Draw a flowchart showing all types of transformation.
