Form 1 students visited an old
house at
Barakhamba road which was constructed in 1932 and a modern house in
Defence Colony which was still under construction on Tuesday, 3rd December,
2013 as a part of their current Unit of Inquiry on homes. Since they are inquiring into houses now and
then, they were able to compare and contrast both the houses.
They noticed the
big aangan, high ceilings, fireplaces, pillars and the arches in the old house.
In the modern house, they looked at the stilt parking, multistoried building
with a lift and the interiors which were very different in comparision to the
old house. It was nice to see our six year olds ask meaningful questions.
