Stories have always been a magical way to teach life lessons, spark imagination, and build confidence in young learners. To bring this magic alive, our classroom turned into a world of puppets and imagination with The Story of Pinocchio. This engaging classroom activity combined literature, art, and drama — all in one exciting project! Students not only learned about the classic tale of Pinocchio, Geppetto, and the Fairy, but also stepped into the shoes of storytellers, artists, and performers.

Using colorful craft materials, they designed and decorated their puppets with creativity and joy. Every puppet had its own unique touch — some funny, some expressive, and some incredibly artistic!

Acting Out Their Own Stories

Students used their puppets to create and act out their own version of the Pinocchio story. They wrote short dialogues, practiced expressions, and performed in front of their classmates with excitement and laughter filling the room.

The conversations between Pinocchio, Geppetto, and the Fairy came alive in the students’ voices. It was inspiring to see how each group added their own twist — some added humor, while others introduced moral lessons of honesty, friendship, and kindness.

Soccer Robots (Grade 3)
Grade 3 students had an exciting time building and playing with their very own soccer robots! Using basic robotic kits with motors and wheels, students created simple robots that could move and “kick” a small ball.

In teams, they assembled their robots and then took part in fun soccer matches, guiding their bots to score goals. The activity introduced them to the basics of robotics, motion, and teamwork in a playful setting.

Students learned how to control their robots, adjust directions, and work together to strategize during the game. The classroom was filled with cheers, laughter, and enthusiasm as the matches unfolded.

This activity was a great way to blend STEM learning with sports, helping students develop coordination, creativity, and collaboration skills—all while having a blast!

 

 

In Grade 1 English class, students explored the topic of

“Naming Words” through a fun and interactive activity. To help students understand the concept of naming words (nouns), a hands-on game was planned where children were given a box filled with sticks that had either pictures or names. Each child picked one stick from the box and identified what it showed. This engaging activity encouraged active participation, critical thinking, and discussion among students.

Through this game, learners were able to clearly differentiate between different categories of naming words, enhanced their vocabulary, and improved their ability to classify and identify nouns in their environment. It also fostered teamwork, confidence, and joyful learning in the classroom.

Introduction : Mathematics becomes more meaningful when learners actively participate in hands-on activities. To strengthen the understanding of the National and International System of Numeration, Grade 5 students of our school took part in an engaging classroom activity that encouraged collaboration, critical thinking, and conceptual clarity.

Activity Description: 

Students were divided into groups and provided with digit cards. Working together, they arranged the cards to form large numbers and placed commas according to both the Indian (National) and Western (International) systems of numeration. They then practiced reading the numbers aloud in both systems, identifying the differences between terms such as lakhs and crores in the National system and millions and billions in the International system.

This interactive approach allowed students to visualize the grouping of digits more clearly and strengthened their ability to interpret and express numbers in both formats.

Learning Outcomes :

The activity not only enhanced students’ numerical skills but also encouraged teamwork, logical reasoning, and effective communication. Learners developed greater confidence in applying their knowledge of numeration and showcased enthusiasm while presenting their answers. The session transformed abstract mathematical rules into an enjoyable, practical learning experience.

 

 

For this activity, the students used a cup and a small ball.

Each group of students took turns placing the ball in different positions.

Through this playful exercise, the children not only saw but also experienced how prepositions showed the relationship between objects. The cup and the ball acted as their little stage, and every student became a performer, moving the ball as per the given preposition.

By the end, the students clearly understood how to describe the position of objects using prepositions, while also building teamwork and confidence.

 

 

Few things bring more joy than watching young minds grasp important life lessons through creative expression. One such moment occurred this week during our Grade 1 Role Play on “Safety Rules on the Road.”

The classroom transformed into a mini street scene – complete with traffic lights, crosswalks, road signs, and even a little zebra crossing! The students dressed up as traffic lights. It was both heartwarming and enlightening to see their excitement and eagerness to take on their roles.

Through simple dialogues and dramatized scenarios, our little ones portrayed, cross the road safely using the zebra crossing, the meaning of basic traffic light colors – red for stop, yellow for wait, and green for go, helmets are essential while riding bicycles or two-wheelers.

Each scene was met with applause, not just for the adorable performances, but for the clarity with which the children conveyed such crucial safety messages.

By the end of the role play, students were able to recognize and recall key road safety rules, understand the importance of being careful and responsible on the road, develop confidence in public speaking and expression through role play, practice teamwork, listening, and coordination in group activities, begin to understand their role as young citizens in ensuring safety – for themselves and others.

Most importantly, they learned that following road safety rules isn’t just for adults – it’s for everyone, including them.

It was a proud moment to see learning come alive in such a meaningful way. We hope these safety lessons stay with our children not just in school, but throughout their lives.

Here’s to safe roads and more responsible future citizens!

 

 

At our Montessori, we believe that children learn best when their hands, hearts, and minds work together. Our recent Fireless Cooking Activity brought this philosophy alive in the most delightful way. The classroom buzzed with excitement as children explored fresh ingredients, felt new textures, and experienced the joy of creating something entirely on their own—safely and confidently.

This simple yet meaningful activity opened the door to real-life learning. Children practiced practical life skills, from organizing their space to handling materials with care. They made thoughtful decisions about how to combine and arrange ingredients, building confidence and independence with every small choice. Their natural creativity shone as they experimented with colours, shapes, and simple patterns while preparing their plates.

Beyond the skills, the activity nurtured the heart. Children shared materials, waited patiently for their turn, encouraged one another, and proudly admired each other’s creations—beautiful moments of empathy, teamwork, and social bonding.

The sensory experience enriched their learning even further. Touching crisp textures, noticing colours, smelling fresh ingredients, and describing what they observed helped expand their vocabulary and sharpen their awareness.

Activities like fireless cooking remind us why Montessori education is so powerful—it turns everyday moments into meaningful lessons, helping children grow into thoughtful, confident, and capable individuals who love to learn.

Flowerpot Activity (Class 3)

To bring alive the moral of The Selfish Giant, our Class 3 students participated in a heart-touching activity titled “Blooming with Kindness.” Through this activity, the young learners created beautiful Kindness Flowerpots and Bouquets, each symbolizing love, care, and generosity.

Students focused and crafting their kindness flowers.

Sharing Happiness

After preparing their handmade bouquets, students exchanged them with their friends. This act of giving helped them understand that true happiness lies in sharing and caring — the very message taught by The Selfish Giant.
