Math learning for school beginners and integration with art: Way to accomplish



According to the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), the process of integrating arts is not carrying out art projects in classroom settings, but it is a teaching strategy that seamlessly merges art with disciplinary teaching in schools. The NCERT published document "Art Integrated Learning: The Guidelines" advocated that as a teaching strategy, it can open spaces for interdisciplinary learning and make learning holistic.

According to Jaipur based educator Dr Lalit Kishore, the 'Art Integrated Learning' initiative promoted by the NCERT and CBSE fell through owing to Covid pandemic crisis which was meant to encourage the teaching-learning model for classroom instruction via 'learning through the arts' for disciplinary learning and 'learning with the arts' for trans-disciplinary learning by making art-forms as mediums of the learning of various disciplines.

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), in its teacher guidebook "Art Integration: Toward Experiential Learning", proposes that CBSE schools are required to adopt and adapt various art-forms in Art Integrated Learning (AIL) for making a shift towards experiential learning 'which provides an equitable learning environment for all learners through their own access points.' It is suggested that the students should be engaged in art activities and construct personal meaning of the subject-related content through learning in an art integrated environment.

I tried my hand on a research lesson of linking learning of numbers from 1 to 4 via reinforcing math learning through creation of object figures by making making the number symbols as the starting struck, For this the six-step successive was used which received the triangulated expert validation (see a child in clinical study of research lesson)
