Lesson Planning Workshop

A two day workshop for lesson planning was arranged by the Quality Development Committee in the school at the end of the academic year 2009-10.

Teachers from English Primary and Secondary as well as Marathi Primary and Secondary had participated in the workshop.  The teachers spent their last two days of the year analyzing the curricular content from 7.30 in the morning to 5.30 in the evening.   

In the workshop, the teachers attempted techniques to plan the lessons in the least possible time. Members of the school committees and the Governing Council were present to steer the activity. 

They were grouped under four subject-heads viz. Science and Maths, Indian Languages, English and Social Sciences. Ms. Tharval, Mr. Desai, and Ms. Patil and Mr. Pawar led the Maths and Science group, while Ms. Mistry, Ms. Shimoga headed the English group.

The teachers were supported in their endeavour by our computer and library staff. Shri.
