05. Transactional Tips (Page 1 of 4) 1) Interactive Discussion Description • Discuss the concept/related example/scenario with the class. Benefit • Interactive discussion helps learners speak up in class, express their ideas, ask questions, and obtain information to improve How to Use It their own understanding of a topic. Example • Begin by asking questions/sharing an example/describing a scenario. Preferred Section • Encourage learners to ask questions about the concept. • Ask questions to check previous knowledge. This will be helpful in deciding the points of focus for teaching. • Interactive Discussion: Ask learners to name the festivals they have celebrated. List them on the blackboard. Ask them how they celebrate, who they celebrate with, what kind of clothes they wear, specific food items related to those festivals, the stories about those festivals, etc. Capture learners’ responses on the blackboard in a table format. Elaborate on festivals and their importance in our lives. • R, U 2) Real‐life Connect Description • Ask questions/share examples which relate to learners’ lives and experiences. Benefit How to Use It • Real‐life connect helps learners connect new information with something they already know. • Choose examples from learners’ lives, which can be used to drive home the concept, or aspects of it. Example • Ask learners to share examples from their lives, experiences or observations relating to the concept to introduce or elaborate Preferred Section on it. • Real‐life Connect: Ask learners what kinds of birds they have seen in their neighbourhood. Ask them whether they know what kind of food those birds eat, where they live, what they look like, etc. Capture learners’ responses on the blackboard in a table format. Elaborate on some common birds, their features, eating habits and habitats. • R, U Page 10
05. Transactional Tips (Page 2 of 4) 3) Peer Learning – Pair/Group Description • Learners discuss a concept with each other to better engage with the concept. Benefit How to Use It • Peer learning supports the idea of self‐help as well as learning from their peers. Example • Pair learners or form groups of 4‐5 learners. Each group/pair can be given a different point/question to work on which they will share with the whole class. (Think‐Pair‐Share). Preferred Section • Peer Learning – Group: Group learners and distribute samples of different types of fabrics and chart sheets. Let them examine the samples, discuss within their groups and write on the chart sheet in a table format a specific feature list for each fabric sample. Let one learner from each group share their findings with the other groups. Correct, add missing information or elaborate further, as and when each group shares the list. • R, U, A, H 4) Outdoor Study Description • Field trips or an outdoor walk to observe real‐life examples related to the concept. Benefit How to Use It • Outdoor study bridges the gap between concepts taught in the classroom and their real‐world application. Example • Take learners to the place suggested (if available within the school or feasible to visit) and give instructions for Preferred Section observing/carrying out the activity. • Ask leading questions encouraging learners to observe and report. • Ask learners to make notes or answer pre‐set questions. • Outdoor Study: Take learners to a nearby construction site. Ask them to interact with the workers or engineers on what goes into building a house with proper safety measures. Let learners discuss their observations and findings and make an outdoor study report. • R, U Page 11
05. Transactional Tips (Page 3 of 4) 5) Reinforcement Description • Re‐emphasise a concept or an aspect of the concept. Benefit How to Use It • Reinforcement helps to improve speed, increases confidence, and strengthens the connections in the brain that help children learn. Example Preferred Section • Ask misconception‐based questions (e.g. True/False, Correct the Statement and so on) to check if the concept has been understood. Ask questions to help learners revise the concept/aspects of the concept. • Reinforcement: Draw a diagram of the hibiscus flower on the blackboard. Label the parts incorrectly. Ask learners to check and verify the labels. Correct the labels capturing learners’ responses. • U, A 6) Summarising Description • Learners express the concept or aspects of the concept through visual or verbal means. Benefit How to Use It • Summarising helps learners to focus on essential ideas and put together important details. Example • Learners can be asked to find the main idea or the important facts and supporting details or the sequence, or draw Preferred Section conclusions. They can be asked to compare and contrast or distinguish between fact and opinion. Learners can use graphic organisers or present verbally. • Summarising: Group learners and distribute chart sheets and drawing materials. Let each group create a mind map to summarise the causes and effects of air pollution. Let the groups exchange their summaries and read aloud the points. Correct, add missing points or elaborate wherever necessary. • R, U Page 12
05. Transactional Tips (Page 4 of 4) 7) Flipped Classroom Description • Learners prepare a presentation on a concept and teach it to the class. Benefit • Flipped Classroom encourages learners to come to the classroom prepared with ideas and questions. How to Use It • Have learners in pairs or groups prepare on a relatively easy concept to teach the rest of the class. Example • Flipped Classroom: Preferred Section Group learners and assign one part of a plant to each group. Let them prepare a chart to illustrate that part and describe its functions. Citing examples, let them list the uses of that part. Let the groups conduct sessions for the remaining groups using the charts they have prepared. •U 8) Quiz Description • Learners answer questions. Benefit How to Use It • Quiz motivates every student to participate, work together and cheer for each other. Example • Quiz learners on the entire lesson or a particular concept. This can be done by dividing the learners into teams, or at an individual level. Preferred Section • Quiz: Group learners into two teams. Conduct a quiz on simple machines. Record the scores of both the teams and award the winning team with a simple machine model. • R, U Page 13

Teacher Reference: Textbook Lesson 1: Muscular System I Think 1) While playing kabaddi with friends, Raghav injured his hand. His mother took him to a doctor. After checking his hand, the doctor said that it was a muscle injury and not a fracture. Raghav wondered what a muscle is and how it looked. Do you know about muscles? Ans. Muscles are the soft materials under the skin. They help in movement by becoming tight and loose. They also maintain the body posture, help in the digestion of food and provide heat to the body. Page 43 Train My Brain 1) What do muscles in our lungs do? Ans. Note: Please change the question to ‘Which muscles help in breathing?’ Muscles around the lungs help in breathing. When the muscles contract, air flows out. When they relax, air flows inside the lungs. 2) Which muscles help the heart to pump blood? Ans. heart muscles 1) Do you know what a hamstring injury is? Find out. Ans. A hamstring is a group of muscles in the back of our thigh. It allows us to bend our leg at the knee. A hamstring injury is a strain or tear to these large muscles. It happens during activities that involve a lot of running and jumping or sudden jerking movements. A hamstring injury is common among athletes. TB: Muscular System
Teacher Reference – Textbook Maths Fun If you warm-up for 15 minutes each day, how much time will you spend in doing warm-up in one week? Ans. One week has 7 days. Amount of time spent doing warm-up exercises in one day = 15 minutes Amount of time spent doing warm-up exercises in 7 days = 15 × 7 minutes = 105 minutes = 1 h 45 minutes Page 44 TB: Muscular System
