The present series of books on Social Sciences for the classes VI, VII and VIII have been framed in accordance to the prescribed syllabus of the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) and the guidelines provided by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).
The author has a teaching experience of over 25 years in these subjects and thus the content has been moderated in a manner that the child gets a firm foundation in the subjects which shall facilitate future learning in higher classes. The books have been conceptualized as the source of knowledge levelled to the comprehension expected of a child in these classes. An effort has been made to make the subject simple, understandable and to distance the student from rote learning. Special emphasis has been given to the level of language. Difficult words have been either avoided or explained alongside. Short paragraphs with headings and highlights have been used as a principle format for ease of searching, locating and understanding topics by the student.
