Early Learner’s Series is an attempt to make the students enthused to
wonder, explore, experience, reflect and act upon their learning. The
books in this series have been thought through and wherever possible
we have tried to link them to each other to make learning more genuine
and tangible for the early learners.

The expanse of this series is focused upon on—Language development,
Number sense and Knowing about the world around. Each of these is
further portioned into two to three levels to be spread over ages ranging
from 2 to 5 year olds.

A set of flash cards and Teacher’s Handbooks for books in the series
are available. The Teacher’s Handbooks include:

• worksheets, which could be photocopied for school and home use

• suggested extended activities, their objectives and the concepts
involved

• Level-wise cross-curricular references between the main books of
the series and the support books—Super Fun Art and Craft, Nursery
Rhymes and Colouring Doodle Books for Levels A, B and C

The Teacher’s Handbooks and Flash Cards are available for free, for the
teachers of schools which prescribe Early Learner’s Series or a part of it.

Hindi books do not have separate Handbooks, but suggested extended
activities and worksheets have been included in the three books of the
series itself.

List of books in the series:

• English for Levels A, B and C

• World Around Me for Levels A, B and C

• Number Sense for Levels A, B and C

• Hindi for Levels A, B and C

• Phonics Parts 1 and 2

About Number Sense Books

Number sense is portioned into three books. The Number series is
directed at developing the concept of numbers from concrete to abstract
through a variety of learning engagements. Some of the other concepts
dealt with in the three levels are: Number recognition, comparisons—
size, space, position, shapes, ordering numbers and concept of addition
and subtraction.
