The strategy "Achieving Weekly Learning Goals Across Subjects" encourages students to effectively meet their educational objectives each week. To begin, it proposes breaking down tasks by subject and prioritizing them. For instance, a student might list tasks needed to achieve English goals and rank them based on difficulty or time required. By allocating specific days to focus on each subject and using reminders, students can maintain their study rhythm.
Another approach is to employ active learning methods, such as creating scene outlines in English or discussing Sanskrit stories with peers. This practical engagement helps deepen subject understanding. For example, a Maths student might use drawing tools to explore symmetry.
Lastly, the strategy emphasizes collaborative learning through group study sessions. Forming a study group allows students to lead discussions and share insights, whether practicing French conversations or experimenting with EVS projects. Each member's contribution enriches the learning experience.
The strategies
⛳️ Strategy 1: Break down your tasks by subject and prioritise
- Review each learning goal and identify key components
- List out tasks needed to achieve each goal for all subjects
- Rank tasks by difficulty or time required
- Allocate specific days to focus on specific subjects based on priority
- Set up a timetable dedicating specific time slots to each subject daily
- Use reminders or alarms to stay on track with your study plan
- Dedicate time at the end of each day to review progress made
- Adjust timetable if certain subjects need more focus
- Ensure you have all necessary materials or resources ready for each study session
- Celebrate small milestones to stay motivated
⛳️ Strategy 2: Use active learning methods to enhance understanding
- For English, draft the play's outline before writing scenes
- In Maths, use drawing tools to explore symmetry hands-on
- Read aloud the Hindi story to enhance understanding
- Create flashcards for negative sentences in French and practise asking questions
- For German, create a collage with clothing words for practical writing
- Discuss the Sanskrit text with peers to expand understanding
- Conduct light experiments in EVS to relate to real-world contexts
- Engage with online tutorials about cyber security for Computers
- Summarise each subject's key learnings orally at the end of the day
- Review learning goals and see if any topic needs revisiting
⛳️ Strategy 3: Engage in group study sessions for collaborative learning
- Form a study group with classmates who share similar learning goals
- Designate roles for each group member to lead discussions on different subjects
- Allocate time to discuss and explain English play writing techniques together
- Use visual aids as a group when exploring Maths symmetry
- Read the Hindi story aloud in turns to gain different perspectives
- Practise French question forming and answering with each other
- Conduct a German clothing themed role-play to enhance writing skills
- Organise a discussion session on the Sanskrit story
- Experiment with light as a group in EVS by sharing results
- Share and discuss online resources about cyber security in the group
