ISA PROJECT – MYSTIFYING MYTHS

ISA PROJECT – MYSTIFYING MYTHS

The third activity of the International School Awards Project – Mystifying Myths – was successfully completed by the students of Classes 4 & 5. The project began with a session in which the students, after viewing an introductory PPT, shared the common myths prevalent in their families. Thereafter, an internet based research by them proved to be an eye-opener as it led to the discovery of the scientific reasons behind many beliefs. The students also conducted a survey across different sections of the society to determine the percentage of believers & non-believers. The project witnessed a very interesting & innovative culmination in the morning assembly, in the form of a LIVE MOCK SHOW, in which the students, posing as journalists, questioned along with other students, the Principal of the school, about her belief in certain common myths prevalent in the society. They also shared their learning in the course of the project with other school students.

The project started with an introductory session in which the students were shown a PPT. Different kinds of jewellery adorned around the world, different materials used for jewellery making, its cost etc. were highlighted in the PPT. A jeweller was invited to the school, who familiarized the students with different tools used in designing jewellery and various stages involved in jewellery making. Thereafter, the students took part in a research based group activity and presented their findings in a file which were displayed on the culmination day. The culmination day of the project saw enthusiastic participation of parents in the "Designing Jewellery" held for them. The students presented a Fashion Show in which they adorned traditional attire & jewellery. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable and educative journey for the students of Class V.
