Life Based Learning ™
Delivering subject content through nine life themes
Neena Arakal Mathew
About Neena
Neena connects to the Life Based Learning approach by her imaginative engagement of children’s learning in fun and interactive ways.
Founder and principal at Mind and Me, an innovative learning centre.
“Mind and ME is exclusively for children from elementary classes. A place where they can freely express through thought, word and action. A range of group games ,activities and exercises help them to develop love towards learning ….. where every child is confident, independent and responsible.
Stories, drama and music have super magical powers which work wonders on the overall development of a child. Values, emotions and empathy can never be taught. They can only be heard, seen spoken ,drawn, enacted or recited.”
LBL connection
Neena’s imaginative engagement of children’s learning in fun and interactive ways resonates with LBL’s ‘Communication Theme’, one of the nine LBL themes designed as a radical alternative to current subject based approaches to learning with its plethora of addons.
Neena’s work is notable for the warmth she brings to her relationships with the children guided by her.
