    Syllabus for Class 6-8
                    For class 6-8, the syllabus will comprise the following:

                       Advanced CT skills
                       Introductory concepts of AI
                       Interdisciplinary projects
                    Advanced CT skills

                    The syllabus will be built on from the earlier classes and provides opportunity to apply CT skills for complex
                    situations and in tandem. Total time allocated to this is 40 hrs. per academic year.
                    Introductory concepts of AI
                    The syllabus extend the Computational Thinking Skills the students have gained to AI. They will be introduced
                    to the fundamental concepts of AI and exposure to AI tools in this school stage. Total time allocated to these
                    concepts is 20 hrs in an academic year.
                    Interdisciplinary projects

                    The interdisciplinary projects encourage  students to use their understanding  of Computational Thinking
                    (CT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyse problems, draw connections  across disciplines, and design
                    creative, data-driven solutions. These projects are designed to integrate concepts from various subjects, such
                    as Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and English, allowing students to apply their learning in authentic,
                    real-world contexts. Each activity is carefully curated to make learning engaging and hands-on rather than
                    academically  demanding, promoting curiosity, collaboration  and innovation. Through these experiences,
                    students not only strengthen their CT and AI skills but also develop critical thinking and an appreciation for
                    the interconnected nature of knowledge.
                    Learning Outcomes

                    Computational Thinking (CT) Learning Outcomes
                    ABSTRACT THINKING
                    Students will be able to interpret and solve multi-step problems with layered and abstract clues, using:

                        Advanced viewpoints and cross-sections of 3D objects
                        Combined transformations of shapes (multiple flips, rotations, reflections, cuts/folds)
                        Changes in orientation, position, order, and direction (clockwise, anticlockwise, diagonal)
                        Identifying hidden, overlapping, or implied parts in complex visual patterns
                        Symmetry across multiple axes and composite mirror/water image reasoning
                        Visual reasoning involving scale, proportion, and spatial relationships

                    PATTERN RECOGNITION

                    Students will be able to identify, extend, and justify complex patterns involving multiple simultaneous
                    changes, formed using:

                        Numbers with mixed operations and logical rules
                        Shapes/images with changing attributes (size, position, count, orientation)
                        Letters and symbols with positional or alphabetical logic
                        Patterns involving alternation, skipping, grouping, or cyclic behaviour
                        Mixed patterns combining numbers, shapes, and letters with dependency rules

                                                                     (v)
