Built on the guiding principle 'I do, I understand', the series equips every child to apply the knowledge and values acquired to one's life. Exploratory and hands-on activities, discussions, opinions and experiments make learning interactive and interesting. With this in mind the Teachers’ Notes provide teaching tips and suggestions for teachers. The content is divided into thematic units starting from the child, his/her family, then the community and beyond.
