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
