Exploring the World of Money: A Hands-On Learning Experience

The chapter on Money was introduced with real currency, sparking curiosity and excitement among the students of Grade I. Teachers guided them to observe and classify coins and notes based on their shape, color, and value, making abstract concepts tangible and relatable. To deepen understanding, children watched an engaging audio-visual presentation that reinforced key ideas. This was followed by a delightful hands-on activity at home, where students explored coins and notes from their surroundings. They touched, observed, and demonstrated their findings, sharing their insights with enthusiasm. One of the most loved activities was coin tracing—children eagerly scribbled with their pencils to imprint the coin’s shape into their notebooks, creating a personal connection with the learning. Their joy was evident as they proudly showcased their coin impressions and described their features.

This experiential approach turned a simple concept into a memorable journey of discovery, observation, and joyful expression.
