· Progression of teaching will be done as indicated topically in the block below. In order to implement teaching effectively the teachers must read Syllabus
Break-up, Syllabus Implementation Guide and Curriculum Mapping document in depth.
· The complete BLOCK must be read by teachers in order to plan daily lessons and Check Points properly.
· The topics for revision periods must be planned during the coordination meeting and detailed plan be written in teacher’s planner.

· Significant concepts/topics have been identified for each chapter/unit. Remember not to include more than any Three concepts/topics in one Check Point
Test.

· Spot/Surprise tests:
Ø must be given at regular intervals to assess students’ learning, carries 2- 5 Marks & with time duration of not more than 5-10 min.
Ø topics should not be decided in the coordination meeting as Spot Tests are taken according to class needs.
Ø marks are to be entered in the student’s notebook index page.
Ø marks are Not To Be included in Check Points / Term Examination.
Ø are not to be mentioned as prior notice in students’ diaries as no preparation is required for this, they are merely teacher’s assessment
of students’ learning.
Ø marks are for Performance INFORMATION/REFERENCE only and will not be added to any formal report.
