Class 8 students built a working solar still that produces 1.5 litres of clean drinking water a day using only waste bottles, black paint and a tin tray.
Children fold, cut and share paper rotis to discover halves, quarters and eighths, and then move to equivalent fractions through 'who ate more?' debates.
A Class 9 maker club built a bin with an ultrasonic sensor and a speaker that greets students, thanks them for disposing waste, and reports when it is full.
Every Friday the last period becomes a story circle. Students run the library, write reviews on sticky notes and vote for the 'book of the month'.
Students learn triangles, circles and symmetry by creating traditional Warli paintings, then measure and classify every shape they drew.
Mid-day meal waste feeds a three-bin compost system that students monitor with thermometers and pH strips, growing vegetables for their own lunch.
A small hand-made passport tracks each student's running, jumping, flexibility and balance every month, with stamps for personal improvement rather than ranking.
Once a month a grandparent from the village teaches a lesson: seed saving, folk songs, old measuring units or how the village got its name.
A structured peer-tutoring system where every child teaches someone one rung below and learns from someone one rung above, with a weekly rotation.
Two zero-cost learning materials made from bottle caps, wire and a rope that let children physically add, subtract and understand place value.
Class 6 students retold folk tales their grandparents narrated as animated Scratch stories, combining coding, language and culture.
