🔖 SVT GUIDELINES (Session 26 - 27)
📋 PURPOSE & VISION
Engage students productively during summer in skill-building, exploration, and creativity.
Align tasks with SNC-based SLOs but do not restrict to textbook content.
The SVT for each subject will be designed as per the given tasks, for a duration of 8 weeks (5
working days / week).
Make it open-source so students of KIPS, 7Cs, KOS and even beyond our school can benefit too.
📋 PROTOCOLS & FORMAT GUIDELINES FOR TEAM
✅ For All Subject Facilitators
Align each task with a specific SLO (mention at the top).
Avoid copy-pasting book exercises; use real-life scenarios, case-based questions, storytelling, or
problem-solving formats. Prefer hands-on, outdoor, inquiry-based, and tech-integrated
activities. Case studies, stories, writings etc. should be in local context. Use more puzzle based and
interesting questions.
Ensure differentiation:
o Add "challenge activity" in all subjects for quick learners.
o Add scaffolding tasks for extra support of the struggling students.
Design QR-based task or activity for all subjects.
Develop 1 self-assessment checklist at the end of each subject.
Prepare answer keys separately that will be provided in soft form, through a QR code.
