Each student comes to a classroom as an individual who has developed a different type of intelligence. Called a learning style, these intelligence domains determine how easily students can learn through a specific teaching method. That is why we include different TEACHING STRATEGIES in the classroom.
We use different teaching methods to make the teaching-learning process interesting, as it helps us to cater the needs of each and every child. We give a chance to all the students to participate in the role plays, which help in building their confidence. We also include personal connection journal, graphic designing, Socratic discussions and co-operative learning in our teaching methodology.
We offer the languages English, Hindi, Punjabi, along with French, Mathematics, Computer and other skill-building subjects like visual arts and performing arts along with CREST. The content of the books is age-specific and includes many activities as well. The vocabulary used in the books is age-appropriate and easy-to-comprehend. The integrated exercises in the books provide a hands-on experience to the students. They are trained for decision making through the self-assessment which is provided in the books. The students prepare the charts, models etc in the school itself to reflect their learning which are displayed in the classrooms to motivate the students and appreciate their efforts.
Education is to impart knowledge to students. Students gain knowledge and upgrade their skills by the knowledge they gain. Educational trips play an important role in educating students in a practical and interesting way. These trips are organised at regular intervals during school hours to give experiential learning opportunities to our young learners.
CREST is a unique programme developed by MRIS that integrates science and Social science. All children do not learn at the same pace. Knowledge is constructed at individual level. This new curriculum provides opportunities for learners to cement their experiences through inquiry and investigation. It is based on NGSS and CBSE course content. CREST is the curriculum that keeps the learner engaged and focuses on developing 21st-century skills like-Critical Thinking, Collaboration and cooperation, Communication and Creativity. It also infuses the scientific temper in students and foster curiosity, wonderment and a questioning attitude in them. It makes a cross-curricular connect and integrate learning by constructing knowledge through exploration, questioning, observation, making associations, drawing inferences and logical conclusions.
