The sudden shift from Campus Admin online learning to remote learning definitely spurred/propelled Academics new practices, leading teachers to discover new skills and strategies. But today, we can strongly say that it was the combined urge of students and teachers that made it possible to successfully pass that phase. School is like a second home for children. Right from pre-primary to secondary level children were overjoyed as they enjoyed their regular school routine. This year definitely holds more enthusiasm and zeal, as the students and teachers were seen actively participating in wonderful gatherings, competitions, activities, etc after a long gap of 2 years. It was such a heart-warming sight to see our students enjoying themselves on the beats of the songs, competing and achieving their goals in various competitions, and the simple joy of being back to school. We are also satisfied with the untiring efforts that teachers put in, for which they’ve got amazing results too. This year students have surely made us so proud by winning in a lot of competitions especially after a long gap. Symbiosis definitely gives students an excellent platform to showcase their talent, grasp new things, learn in a good atmosphere, etc. Focusing on the academics, it was definitely a challenging phase to bridge the learning gap. A lot of efforts have been put forth to identify and addressing the learning gaps, brainstorm over many educational concepts, set targets and achieve the best. Very soon we have the NEP (National Education Policy) 2020 coming up. The earlier 10+2 structure in school education will be now modified with a new pedagogical and curricular restructuring of 5+3+3+4 covering ages 3-18. This new wave of change is going to cater to the overall development of a child. There is a need for this change. A change to uphold the current needs of the students and to provide them a care free atmosphere where they can enjoy their educational journey. We at Symbiosis believe in putting in a lot of efforts to make learning a joyful experience in the best possible manner. Afterall, learning happens with a good blend of curricular and extra-curricular aspects. Together let us make this platform the best place for our children and help them achieve their dreams with the best potential. SSCD, December, 2022 |5

Lesson Planning is essential for educators Lesson Planning is essential for educators. A teacher without a Lesson plan is like a boat without a rudder. In a classroom setting, failing to have a lesson plan in place minimizes the prospects of envisioning certain outcomes and fulfilling teacher's expectations. The lesson plan is all about the teacher's ability to synthesize the curriculum goals with pedagogy and knowledge of their specific teaching context. Although a well-designed lesson plan takes time and thought, it's an investment that can provide returns in many ways. In the same light, Dr. Karnica Vyas from Symbiosis Schools Central Directorate conducted a session on 'Lesson Planning' for the teachers of Symbi Stars. The deliberations were done with the teachers on the strategies of preparing lesson plans aligned with NEP principles.

After School Activities Various research studies had already indicated that students who participate in extra-curricular activities get better in academics. This is because of the skills they learn from participating in different activities. Students learn to manage time, organizational skills, and improve self-confidence. At the same time through all sorts of activities, students also learn to express themselves in a better way. Keeping these important research-oriented results in mind, Symbiosis Schools Central Directorate has started with a variety of after- school activities which are carried out throughout the year. Keeping in mind the three major domains of human personality i.e. cognition, affective and motor development of children, SSCD started with Basketball, Volleyball, Art/painting, Dance, and Abacus. A total of 97 children have enthusiastically participated in all these activities. DEC, 2022. ISSUE-3. SSCD, December, 2022 |5

During this festive season, Symbiosis School, Nashik took a small initiative to bring smiles to the faces of the little Adivasi children of Ambai village near Trimbakeshwar in Nashik district. On 20th October 2022, the children of the School Community Club along with their teachers and office staff visited the town to distribute clothes, stationery items, sweets, lanterns, and toys which were donated by the students and staff of Symbiosis School, Nashik. The villagers at Ambai welcomed them wholeheartedly and also recited poems in Marathi, Hindi, English, and also Shlokas in Sanskrit for the Symbian. All Students came with a heart full of happiness and contentment. DEC, 2022. ISSUE-3. Students of our Symbiosis School, Nashik conducted a PAPER BAG DISTRIBUTION DRIVE on November 17, 2022. The students prepared 600 newspaper bags, held a rally in the school vicinity and distributed paper bags to the vendors as well as the shopkeepers. ‘SAVE ENVIRONMENT’ and ‘NO PLASTIC BAGS’ were the Slogan for the day. Students created awareness about the need to protect our environment from piling layers of plastic as they do not decompose. They also explained to the shopkeepers and the vendors that if the innocent animals eat these plastic bags along with the thrown away food items, it sticks to their intestines and can be fatal, thus promoting eco friendly bags and contribute our bit in saving our environment. Students not only learnt about ‘SHRAMDAAN’ by making the paper bags, they also understood their responsibilities as Global Citizens. SSCD, December, 2022 |5

Creative minds of Symbi Who is the enemy? Daniyal Ansari from PYP, 4B Have you seen the trees lately? And see their perfect beauty? But, when I think about its protection, We have to protect, it's our only duty. But, then I remember the forest fire, It's the enemy I can't fight, I know I can't do much about it But I still think day and night There are a few ways, I can save the trees As I can't fight the fire, But I can grow them plenty, And let them grow, to my heart's desire. - Daksh Bhagtani
