“History repeats itself!”, “Geographers never get lost!”, “For the people, of the people, by the people!” “Money makes the world go round!” – We have all heard these sayings at some point in our lives and as have students of classes 4-10. These are all sayings that define the world we live in, how it came to be this way and how it runs. All of this is defined by Social Studies (History, Geography, Political Science, and Economics).
As per the curriculum the Social Sciences have been a part of the school curriculum before Class VI as part of the teaching of Environmental Studies. The revised EVS syllabus has attempted to draw the child’s attention in Classes III-V to the broad span of time, space and the life in society, integrating this with the way in which she or he has come to see and understand the world around them.
