description

The World Around Me, a well-graded series of Environmental Studies, is a set of five books meant for primary level.

In Books 1 and 2 of the sries, the study of evironment has been integrated with other subjects such as English, Math and the Life Sciences, while Books 3, 4 and 5 are stricly based on the new integrated syllabus for Environmental Studies and the National Curriculum Framework-2005.

The World Around Me seeks to impart to children a holistic understanding of their environment.

Children at the primary level perceive their environment as a whole. Therefore, instead of breaking the topics into parts and compartmentalizing them into science, social sciences, etc., we have followed the themes that are connected and interrelated, making it easy for the child to cmprehend the relationship between its natural, social and cultural encironment in an integrated manner.

Brought out after extensive research, the aim of the series is to create an integrated, interactive and exciting learning experience for children.

Salient Features of the Series are:

  • Completely activity based.
  • Child-friendly layout and design.
  • Colorful illustrations.
  • Simple everyday language suitable to the age group for which the book is meant.
  • All examples and situations take from the environment that the child is familiar with.
  • Features like "Did You Know?" and "Remember" to expand the child's knowledge base.
  • Lessons designed to encourage independent thinking.
  • Each new theme is brought vividly alive through activities, comic strips, narratives and stories.
  • Planned with the aim of creating an integrated, interactive and exciting learning experience.
  • Adresses issues like difference in gender, class, caste, religion, etc.

The aim of the series is to impart to the children a holistic understanding of the world around them and their relationship with all facets of the environment, whether physical, social or cultural. All this is done without taking away from the joy of learning.
