Early learning materials
Manipulatives and activity-based resources that can support foundational literacy and numeracy.
About the TLM Lab
The Teaching-Learning Material (TLM) Lab at SCERT Solan supports teachers in exploring, preparing, and adapting practical resources for classroom use.
Our purpose
The lab helps teachers connect curriculum concepts with demonstrations, models, activities, and locally relevant examples.
Teachers can use the space to compare ideas, practise with materials, and develop resources that suit their learners and available classroom conditions.
What teachers can use
Digital learning tools
Displays and multimedia resources for explaining, demonstrating, and discussing concepts.
Tinkering space
A collaborative area for building, testing, and improving low-cost teaching models.
Recording space
A place to plan and record educational audio and video resources for classroom use.
AR and VR resources
Digital experiences that can help learners examine places, objects, and processes from different perspectives.
Robotics activities
Introductory coding, mechanisms, and engineering activities focused on practical problem-solving.
A practical learning progression
Teachers can use TLMs at different stages of learning, moving from recall and explanation to application, analysis, and creation.
Remember and understand
Use cards, models, diagrams, and examples to introduce vocabulary and clarify core ideas.
Apply and analyse
Invite learners to use knowledge in familiar contexts, compare examples, and identify relationships.
Evaluate and create
Guide learners to explain their choices, improve a model, or make a new solution to a meaningful problem.
