Motivational & Confidence Building Session for Grades X & XII
Fostering student motivation is a difficult but necessary aspect of teaching. Many may have led classes where students are engaged, motivated, and excited to learn, but have also led classes where students are distracted, disinterested, and reluctant to engage—and, probably, have led classes that are a mix.
Taurian World School organized a motivational and confidence building session for students of Grade X & XII, inside the campus on 7th March 2021.
During the session, Dr. Subhash Kumar, Principal, highlighted the importance of positive thinking and attitude. He said that inner strength and character helped people to progress in life. Dr. Subhash Kumar, said that self realization is very important and realization on time is crucial. He also said that clarity of thought lays the foundation of destiny. “Motivation also plays a major role in achieving the goals. The real life experiences are also important for achieving professional and personal goals,” he emphasized.
The get-together ended with a song by Shreya Rai followed by a sumptuous dinner.

Learning happens when someone not just masters the concept and skills but also knows to apply those skills in the real world and have hands-on experience with those concepts. Teaching with a creative approach allows students to appreciate the concept and demonstrate their learning in a way they enjoy too.
At Taurian, we are always providing our students a chance to apply their thinking and understanding in a creative way to make the learning experience fun for them.
Our little buddies of Grade LKG have been exploring numbers around them. They performed an activity where they reused waste materials to showcase their understanding of number concept. This not only helped them to get into the habit of reusing materials but they could now also connect numbers with the objects around them.
Grade UKG have been learning about different shapes. They made connections with real life while identifying shapes of different objects around them. They were then asked to draw pictures of different items that resemble the shape they have learnt about. This activity was a good practice work to hone their observation and viewing skills.
Our Grade 1 learners did a fun activity called - Making of SKIPPY the skip counting caterpillar. This task focused on reinforcing the concept of Skip counting by integrating Math and Art. Students enjoyed the activity and presented beautiful pieces to showcase their learning. They made two caterpillars by using drawing sheets to review Skip counting by 5s and 10s that reinforced their concept.
Our Grade 3 also enjoyed doing another interesting and fun activity called - "Yummy Yum-Yum" Place value ice-cream. Place value ice-cream is a delicious way to introduce, practice and review place value. This activity has given an opportunity to the students to apply their skills that they have learned naming numbers in different ways. Students built an ice-cream cone/basket/bowl on a chart paper to review place value by using the Standard form, Expanded form, Number Word and base ten blocks and created Yummy combinations that reinforce their concept of place value.
