Innovative work

While teaching refraction on 9 th standard, I created a working model of a hologram to help my students understand the concept of application of refraction. Using a OHP sheet , cardboard, black papers, glue, scale, I assembled the hologram. The model is demonstrated in a dark room using mobile hologram video. Demonstrating this in class, my students were able to see the principles and applications of refraction in action, significantly enhancing their comprehension and engagement. This hands-on approach not only made the lesson more interesting but also helped cement their understanding of the topic.
