• Vision : - To be a world-class institution rooted in Indian culture that enables holistic development and empowers the students from all strata of society, along with stakeholders, to deal with any global scenario.
• Mission : - Working together, and optimizing all resources including faculty, facilities and good governance towards developing excellence in students as well as skills to deal with changes.
Our Vision & Our Mission
SHISHUVAN, affiliated to the ICSE board. This is an examination board which prescribes text booksIn Grade IX and X, unlike the State board.
SHISHUVAN, is divided into 4 sections for administrative purposes:
• Pre-primary – 3 yrs- 5yrs• Primary: 6 yrs-10 years• Middle School : 10 years- 13 years• High school: 13 years – 16 years

Integrated Learning
On Assessment in ShishuvanOur vision is:
• Students develop a repertoire of learning styles and regularly evaluate their own progress.
• There is pupil involvement in appointment of staff and in planning improvements in teaching and learning.
• Pupils work alongside staff as researchers.
• Regular pupil evaluations of teaching and learning take place.
Where we are and still working to establish:
• Pupils are clear about learning objectives.
• Pupils are informed of targets and negotiate how they will achieve them.
• Pupils are involved in self-evaluating learning.
Where we want to add in the coming academic year:
• Pupils negotiate targets, understand next steps and are aware of their own learning styles.
• Pupil groups are involved in exploring effective approaches to learning.
• Reflective diaries are used or approaches such as class discussion of learning styles and management issues.
Comprehensive and Continuous Evaluation
The Govt. has made CCE mandatory for all schools.
Formative Assessments : Assessment for learning : On going throughout the topic
Summative Assessments : Assessment of learning : at the end of the learning
Carbon and Carbon Compounds(Std 8 – Chemistry)
AIMS Students will develop an understanding of occurrence and properties carbon, its allotropes and hydrocarbons, carbon dating
LEARNING OBJECTIVES Students will be able to
• Know the occurrence of carbon in nature .
• Discuss the phenomenon of allotrophy .
• Explain the properties and uses of carbonmonoxide, various amorphous and crystalline forms of carbon .
• Demonstrate the differences in the properties of diamond and graphite .
• Show the property of carbon as an adsorbent and a reducing agent
• List the general properties of carbon, explain carbon cycle and the process of carbon dating
Session
Date/Time
Learning Activities Assessment Resources
145 min
Occurrence of carbon and allotropes of carbon/mind mapping and photogallery with mount boards
Three minute review, worksheet
21 hour
Properties and uses of carbon allotrophes and carbon cycle /videos
Round robin and jigsaw
3 1 hour General properties of carbon and carbon as a reducing agent/think-pair share and experiment
Think pair share
4 1 hour Hydrocarbon nomenclature/video and card game
Guess the hydrocarbon quiz
5 1 hour Properties of carbon monoxide, cause of excess carbon and its effects/fishbone diagram
Three-two-one
6 1 hour Process and importance of carbon dating/reading books and internet research
Group presentation
2. Round Robin and Jigsaw
• 36 students divided into 6 groups of 6 each.
• Videos were shown and on the basis of the videos, a set of questions were given to them to answer – orally.
• In each group, one recorder/assessor would assess the answers given by the group members.
• The assessor is usually the one who is a G&T student.
• The group is a mixed ability group
Teaching and learning activitiesGeneral comment: the class went well and it was a new and easy way of self study and. It was fun learning in that way because we could interact with our friends asking about the topics.Specific points the concept was a good one for children to understand better.Self study us made easierLearner involvementGeneral comment: got involved in it easily as it was fun reading and understanding interacted with friends and was amazingSpecific points: good understanding and interest in studies is increasedThe session as a wholethe session as a whole was great and interesting to study without the teachers explaining and having understanding on our own.
3. Think-Pair-Share
• Sit in pairs.
• What ever has been taught- need to discuss for the next 5 mins.
• The teacher asks questions to each pair.– Examples: what is catenation?
– What is the use of catenation for human beings?
4. Quiz
• Based on the general formula of the three basic groups of hydro-carbons, the student had to guess the no. of carbon atoms and name the hydro-carbon and vice-versa
5. THREE – TWO- ONE
• STEP 1. FISH BONE DIAGRAM
• STEP 2. THE STUDENT HAD TO PUT DOWN 3 POINTS THAT WERE UNDERSTOOD WELL, 2 POINTS WHERE THEY NEED HELP AND 1 WHICH WAS NOT UNDERSTOOD AT ALL.
6.GROUP PRESENTATION
• Based on internet research and books, the students extended the syllabus by including “Carbon Dating” and through a group presentation.
