TRENDS
Children don’t need to think about money all the time. What they need to do is appreciate its value and over a period of time, learn about it like they would learn to ride a bicycle, swim or even cook. One of the best skills you can give your child is to prepare them to responsible, empowered adults around money. After all, as Maria Montessori said, "The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence".
INNOVATION
Teachers and educators are true nation-builders. Recognising the demands of the 21st century, they must equip themselves to meet new challenges in teaching, learning, and assessment. By educating and empowering youth to adapt to a dynamic, ever-changing world, educators become the torchbearers of social transformation and development.

CURIOSITY
Have you ever wondered how insurance companies figure out how much you should pay for car insurance or how retirement funds make sure they don’t run out of money? That’s where actuarial science comes in! It’s a mix of math, problem-solving and predicting the future (well, almost!) to help people and businesses manage risks. Let’s take a fun look at how it all started!
LEARNING
There was an announcement over the mike at a Regional Community Function:
“We will now have a running race to ladies.”
It was an Annual Day Function and sports were being conducted for children and adults. The race for children was done and then came this announcement. While some ladies stood up wanting to participate, one gentleman also stood up saying, “I will go”. On asking him why he was moving towards the track, he turned around and with a tongue-in-cheek expression said, “They have announced a running race TO ladies.”
MOTIVATION
Ask students to recommend a book to their friends. This motivates them to explore their own interests. We also have to remember not to insist that a book be completed. If they don’t feel like reading on a particular day, let them reflect on a book that they have already read by drawing the characters in the book or the title page of the book. At home, the family as a whole can make reading a daily ritual for 10 to 15 minutes, just before bedtime. Once this becomes a habit, the child may choose his own time and may extend the duration as well. Audiobooks of their choice can be played during trips.
