Vishwajyot curriculum has been created by integrating the subject matter expertise of ICSE and life skill components of the Waldorf philosophy. This allows each child to discover the world holistically, in its true interlinked form - and not in silos of academics and co-curricular.
Benefits of Integrated Curriculum
Ever wondered how a simple machine such as a bicycle can help students learn about various laws of physics, geometry, trigonometry, the history of mankind, geography, and metallurgy, all together? Grade 8 students study the bicycle and how it integrates various concepts cutting across almost all subjects.
Students of Middle School bake cookies to learn various aspects of Physics, Math, and Chemistry that our mums use every day in the kitchen. While creating delicious cookies, students integrate the concepts of heat, chemical reactions, and ratio and proportion to create a real-world product.
Students apply the concepts of geometry and trigonometry while using their learnings of geography and art, as they measure and create an accurate and scaled-down map of the field. Apart from academic skills, this project helps students to learn working in a team setting and exposes them to real-world problems.
The Handwork skills that students learn at Vishwajyot carry over into math, reading, spelling and writing. Handwork teaches the students important executive functioning skills such as how to plan ahead, to work carefully step by step, and to sequence steps; they learn to envision a project both from whole to parts, and then parts to a whole project, all essential skills for their academic studies as well as life beyond the classroom.
