MATHEMATICAL LOGICAL
MATHEMATICS
Mathematics is described as ‘the Queen of the Sciences and the King of the Arts’.
The Math club functions as a fun-based activity for the middle classes basically to eradicate their phobia for the subject in their formative years. It helps the middle school children to enjoy, appreciate and acquire a basic knowledge of the subject by organizing competitive group activities, puzzles. Through the club, to develop a positive attitude towards learning Mathematics, a myriad of activities was conducted in the club:
· Puzzle time.
· Fun with arithmetic operations
· Number and operations puzzle
· Vedic Math tricks for multiplication
· Shape rotational patterns
· Number series
· Odd one out series
· Number patterns
· Shape counting in multi grouped figures

SCIENCE CLUB
Learning by doing and learning by living are two essentials of learning Science. To satisfy the natural urge of the students, enhance self-expression, constructivism and independent enquiry, develop scientific attitude and genuine interest in Science, Science Club is the best place. Through the club, to develop a positive attitude towards learning science, a myriad of activities was conducted in the club.

ROBOTICS CLUB
STEAM Learning integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics, with key skills such as problem
solving, strategic thinking and collaboration. Digital & Design Technologies aims to develop the knowledge,
understanding and skills to ensure that, individually and collaboratively, students develop confidence as critical users
of technologies and designers and producers of designed solutions, and they design, create, manage and evaluate
sustainable and innovative digital solutions.
Keeping that in mind, our young scientists, engineers, mathematicians have collaborated with peers and learnt how
to Design, Make and Learn. Some highlights of what the kids have learnt in the Robotics club are given below :
1) Introduction to Robotics
2) Learning the controls
3) Measure the angles
4) Learning to program the Bot to make a shape on flex
5) Direction test – Learning to program the Bot to move from start to end point
6) Bee-Bot – Making the Bot travel across the letter in the word
7) Basics of programming
8) Block programming – Developing a program to respond to timed events
9) Making connections between Computer Science and real world through Block coding.
10) Game character controlling methods.

BODILY KINESTHETIC ( SPORTS)
Kinesthetic Intelligence is the ability to use one’s body with great precision, helping to facilitate the implementation of our goals and personal objectives. Those with kinesthetic intelligence are able to use the body to move from intention to action. This type of intelligence involves coordination, balance, skill, speed, strength, and dexterity. In short, it relies on tactile mechanisms and human movement to get information. t is crucial for our own wellbeing, to remember the importance of unity, balance and harmony of both concepts, Logical and Kinesthetic Intelligence, by keeping in mind that the body and mind go
