HINDIसितंबर माह : हिंदी के साथ सीखने और अभिव्यक्ति का सफर सितंबर माह की शुरुआत हिंदी विषय की पुनरावृत्ति के साथ हुई। ‘पृथ्वी’ कविता के माध्यम से विद्यार्थियों ने सस्वर वाचन करते हुए पृथ्वी से जुड़े वैज्ञानिक तथ्यों को तथा घूर्णन और परिक्रमण में अंतर को स्पष्ट रूप से समझा ।इसके पश्चात विशेषण की अवधारणा को उदाहरणों एवं लेखन अभ्यास के माध्यम से समझाया गया। विद्यार्थियों ने पौष्टिक भोजन के बारे में जानकारी एकत्र कर उसके गुणों को विशेषणों के माध्यम से व्यक्त किया।हिंदी दिवस पर विद्यार्थियों ने हिंदी साहित्य के लेखकों एवं कवियों के रूप में प्रस्तुति देकर साहित्य के प्रति अपनी रुचि दिखाई। ‘मैं टीवी हूँ’ पाठ के माध्यम से समय और मनोरंजन के साधनों के सदुपयोग पर चर्चा की गई तथा वाद-विवाद गतिविधि द्वारा विद्यार्थियों को अपने विचार आत्मविश्वासपूर्वक प्रस्तुत करने का अवसर मिला। SDG 12 से जुड़ते हुए विद्यार्थियों ने भोजन की बर्बादी और उसके समाधान पर चर्चा की। माह के अंत में उन्होंने चित्रकथा का निर्माण एवं प्रस्तुतीकरण करते हुए अपनी रचनात्मकता, कल्पनाशक्ति और अभिव्यक्ति कौशल का प्रदर्शन किया। इस प्रकार सितंबर माह विद्यार्थियों के लिए सीखने, सोचने, रचनात्मकता और आत्मविश्वास के विकास से भरपूर रहा। MATHSAn introductory activity helped Grade III learners recap key terms related to Division. The concept of remainders was explained using pencil colours and other real-life objects. Learners explored the rules of division and confidently practised dividing 3 and 4-digit dividends by a 1-digit divisor using the long division method. They also related division to everyday situations and solved word problems using the RUCSAC method. Students were then introduced to Fractions and familiarised themselves with the terms whole, numerator, and denominator. Through visual representations and examples, they explored simple fractions such as one-half, one-quarter, and one-third, developing an understanding of equal parts of a whole. SCIENCEUncovering the Hidden Secrets of Soil To investigate the composition of soil, Grade III students closely observed different soil samples and identified components such as tiny rock particles, sand, and organic matter. Their observations helped them understand that soil is much more than just loose particles—it is a dynamic natural resource that supports life.Students then explored an interesting property of soil through a simple investigation. A soil sample was placed in a glass and covered with a transparent film before being kept under sunlight. After 2–3 days, students observed water droplets forming on the film. This provided them with evidence that soil contains moisture, which can be released as water vapour when heated by the Sun.The experience encouraged students to observe, question, predict, investigate and conclude, making their learning hands-on and inquiry-driven.Through this exploration, Grade III students discovered that even something as ordinary as a handful of soil holds fascinating scientific secrets SOCIAL STUDIESExploring, Learning and Growing!
