Module 3: Imagination for Learning (Topic Weaving)

Screen 5 of 7

Application: Topic Weaving for Maths

Math can feel abstract. Using your imagination makes it concrete. Let's solve 8 - 3 = ? by turning it into a story.

Which is a more brain-friendly way to solve 8 - 3?

1. Just solve the numbers.

2. Imagine 8 of your favorite characters are in a room. 3 of them leave. How many are left?

Application: Topic Weaving for History

History is full of dates. Let's remember the year 1492 with a silly image. For '14', think of a FORT. For '92', think of a BLUE SHOE. Now, picture a soldier in a FORT throwing a giant BLUE SHOE. The crazier the image, the more it sticks!
