Navneet Rise Elements A Coursebook of Social Studies for Class 7

Elements: A Coursebook of Social Studies, is a new Social studies series for Class 1 to 8 based on the NCERT curriculum. Adhering to the NCF 2005, it aims at laying the foundation of basic concepts of social studies by introducing young learners to the world around in a simple and interactive way. The emphasis of the series is to sensitize children to the issue around them rather than just present reams of facts. We hope that you find this series useful and interesting to learn as well as teach.
