REET Level 1 study notes
Play-based and Activity-based Learning
For REET Level 1, play-based and activity-based learning means using purposeful play, concrete material, talk, movement, story, role play, local objects and observation so that children in Classes 1 to 5 learn by doing. The official RBSE CDP syllabus anchors it under teaching-learning strategies and methods, NCF 2005, assessment, CCE and RTE 2009. Current preparation must add NCF-FS 2022, NEP 2020 and NIPUN Bharat: ages 3 to 8 form the foundational stage, play is central to pedagogy, and RTE Section 29 supports activity, discovery, exploration, mother tongue and continuous evaluation.
Key points
- RBSE anchors the topic under teaching-learning strategies and methods, assessment, CCE, action research and RTE 2009.
- NCF-FS 2022 says children learn best through play, activity and doing.
- NEP 2020 places the foundational stage in the 5+3+3+4 structure for ages 3 to 8.
- NIPUN Bharat was launched on 05 July 2021 and targets FLN by Grade 3 by 2026-27.
- RTE Section 29 supports learning through activities, discovery and exploration in a child-friendly manner.
- Play-way is not free time; it is a planned route to language, number, reasoning and social learning.
- Activity-based teaching requires observable doing, teacher questioning, reflection and feedback.
- Inclusive activity design gives equivalent turns to children with disability, different home languages and different family contexts.
