“Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results.” – John Deway
With this belief, a subject enrichment activity was organized for grade 7 students. English Enrichment provides students with the opportunity to learn, experience, read and write within a variety of genres. So, to inculcate this additional creative learning, students were taught a concept based on experiential learning. They were given a text, in which they had to visualize themselves and draw an event that has been mentioned in the text or they had to draw the best scene. This method not only helped them in understanding a literary device but also gave them a better understanding of the text. Through several events of the text, the whole concept of the text or the gist was captivated. It was an exhilarating activity, which led them into the thinking process and then into learning naturally.
