A particular category of numbers called integers includes the digits zero, as well as positive and negative numbers. We emphasize that the positive and negative signs on integers, as well as learning how to represent the positive and negative integers on the number line, are all things that our M1/2 students are already familiar with. Having applied all these we can now imagine that for M1/2, classifying and recognizing numbers is simple. (T. Sheethal)
Seniors from M5/3 are helping the juniors from M1/2 in the peer teaching activity, which has returned. The seniors will benefit from this exercise for their research projects, and the juniors will benefit from activities that will help them remember their lessons.

MEP-SEP opened an exhibition to incoming freshmen students showcasing the program’s academic outputs, and fun and interactive games whilst other select students participated by exhibiting their innovative projects.
The first generation to participate in the colloquium presenting a breadth of research on “Peer Tutoring for Reading Fluency” this year was M5/3. Additionally, the seminar serves as a capstone of the student’s English language instruction, particularly in terms of research paper writing.
let’s hear what do M1/2 says about their recent Mathematics Activity.
This activity is very fun to play with and learn about graphs by yourself. And I did it with a group that we chose ourselves, so I had fun doing it with my friends.
This activity is not very stressful. When doing it, I always feel excited. Because I want to know what form it will come out in.
That’s this year’s costume theme. As a result MEP-SEP students indeed wear it with their flamboyant version plus many surprise performances which turned the talent night especially fun!
The M1/2 with in their Mascot costume showcased “the cup song and YMCA dance”.
The M2/2 is on its magic and fashionable catwalk!
