Dramatization of Baker Activity JR KG AFT (2014-15) WIS, Malad



Pat – a – cake, Pat – a – cake,
Baker’s man,
Bake me a cake, as fast as you can.
Pat it and prick it and mark it with‘T’
And put it in the oven for teacher and me.

Theme for the month of July 2014 is“Community helpers”. As a part of this theme, children of Jr.KG section were educated about the community helper – “Baker”. A dramatization activity was organized on Wednesday, 30 July, 2014 to make the learning fun-filled and creative. Children were made to dress like bakers and they enacted on the rhymes “Pat a cake, hot cross buns and 5 cherry buns in the baker’s shop”. The activity session was energetic and children participated with enthusiasm. It helped in a great way for the children to understand about the concept ‘baker’ and how he functions as a community helper. 





Eye Check-up Activity Jr. KG. & Sr. KG. Section ( 2014- 15 ) WIS, Malad



Through our twinkling eyes, we see our magical world.
So that we come to know, where to skip and where to twirl.
So let me check the depth of my tearing pools,
Do they have the sight of an eagle or have to follow the doctor's rules?


 Eye specialist, Dr. Sarwaiya visited the Junior. KG and  Senior. KG  class on Wednesday, 30 July 2014 for a detailed “Eye check up” for the children.
He educated children on good practices such as not to watch television from closer distances, not to play with sharp pointed objects such as pencils, scissors and knife. He also provided valuable eye care tips such as, if some small particles like dust enters in to one’s eyes, they should wash their eyes with water instead of rubbing them.
Thus the eye check up session was very helpful and knowledgeable for children in knowing how to keep their eyes safe and healthy.

Making Science Colorful Secondary Section (2014-15) WIS , Malad


                                          Making Science Colorful

Witty International School organised a paper chromatography session for the students of Grade VII. Paper Chromatography is a complex looking but simple process of separating and analyzing the solvents in dyes.
                 The students had great fun all the while learning about pigments and solubility. Chromatography is defined by many as the advent of art in chemistry. “ I generally don’t like chemistry but the art hidden in this mundane science, helped me forget my hatred , even if it was for a short time.’’, agrees Yashvi Agrawal, a student of Grade VII.   
           The purpose of this activity was to observe how chromatography can be used to separate mixtures of chemical substances . Students enjoyed the combination of science and art.
        All the students agree whole – heartedly that this was one of the best experiences ever. ‘’ Chemistry has never been this fun’’, was all that the students had to say about chromatography. This is the first time that a scientific approch has received such laurels. For which I can only say , Kudos to the science teachers !

WIS SCINEMA delivers a wakeup call on Environmental Protection [2014-2015]




As we dawned into the third successful week of WIS SCINEMA we continued to explore the most astounding scientific facts and also pondered on our role in protecting our planet. At Witty International School we believe that Films can present scientific fact in a compelling visual narrative and they have the potential to open the minds of the students to the world around them. We aim to show the world’s best internationally acclaimed documentaries and movies on the unexplored parts of our planet.

Last week we introduced the concept “Bring a friend” which turned out to be a successful programme where we were happy to be a part of bringing about scientific awareness in our society. So this week we once again invited guest students from other schools all over Mumbai.

Last two weeks we had shown the students internationally acclaimed documentaries so today in our festival we introduced a science fiction animated movie “ WALL-E” with a beautiful central idea.
The movie took place a few hundred years in the future, and the students first met a loveable protagonist WALL*E (an acronym for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) as he wandered the post-apocalyptic landscape of an abandoned city, picking up the trash left behind by humans.
 

This movie made the students reflect on the damages we are causing to our beautiful planet Earth. There were scenes where we see that humans have become so commercialized and such slaves of technology that even to get up from their place they need a robot to help them. As humans we always feel we are on top of the food chain and ignore environmental protection. So this movie warned us of the dangers we face if we continue with our present habits and it promoted commendable values like friendship, loyalty and moral responsibility.
