Preface ClassKlap partners with schools, supporting them with learning materials and processes that are all crafted to work together as an interconnected system to drive learning. Our books strive to ensure inclusiveness in terms of gender and diversity in representation, catering to the heterogeneous Indian classroom. ClassKlap presents the Traveller series, designed specifically to meet the requirements of the new curriculum released in November 2016 by the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE). Guiding principles: The 2016 CISCE curriculum states the following as its guiding principles for Environmental Studies (EVS): EVS learning needs to be theme-based rather than topic-based Relating the child’s local knowledge to what is learnt in class will discourage the rote memorisation and encourage the developmentally age-appropriate learning Visuals/illustrations play a very pivotal role in EVS learning Activities and questions have an important place in EVS learning Each of these principles resonates with the spirit in which the ClassKlap textbooks, workbooks and teacher companion books have been designed. The ClassKlap team of pedagogy experts has carried out an intensive mapping exercise to create a framework based on the CISCE curriculum document. Key features of ClassKlap Traveller series: Theme-based content that addresses all the specified learning outcomes holistically. Student engagement through age-appropriate, visually appealing and activity-based content. Diverse presentation and activities to address the differential learning styles of students. A variety of question types based on Bloom’s taxonomy to build specific thinking skills. Focus on EVS-specific vocabulary building. All in all, the Traveller Science books aim to promote an interdisciplinary learning of the environ-ment and its dynamic interactions with humans subtly in order to promote concern and sensitivity towards the environment as a vital entity that supports the existence of life. – The Authors
