“Carvaan English ” is a series of textbooks for grades 1 to 8 designed to provide learners
with a comprehensive understanding of the English language. We are excited to introduce
this extensive collection of textbooks, meticulously crafted to meet the standards of the
National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework (NCF)
2023.
The series employs an inclusive approach that balances skill-based, activity-based,
application-based, and interactive methods in teaching and learning within the classroom.
In this framework, reading is seen as an interactive and constructive process, where the
reader utilises personal and cultural knowledge to interpret and derive meaning from the
text.
Aligned with a blended approach for holistic learner development, each book is organised
around various classic and contemporary themes, featuring an enjoyable blend of prose,
poetry and essays. The selections in the series include excerpts from enduring
contemporary international bestsellers as well as timeless classics. The content is
thoughtfully graded across the series, taking into account the learner's intellectual and
emotional growth, offering both the comfort of the familiar and the excitement of new
challenges.
To further enrich the learning experience, each chapter is supplemented with engaging
activities and exercises that promote critical thinking, creativity, and effective
communication. These activities are designed to foster a deeper connection with the
material, encouraging students to apply their knowledge in practical, real-world contexts.
Moreover, this series emphasises the development of key competencies such as reading
comprehension, vocabulary building, grammar proficiency, and writing skills. By
integrating these elements seamlessly into each lesson, we aim to equip learners with the
essential tools needed for academic success and personal growth.
We hope that this series will inspire and motivate learners to explore the beauty and
richness of the English language, fostering a lifelong love for reading and learning. We are
confident that it will be a valuable resource for both students and educators, supporting a
dynamic and enriching educational journey.
We wish you an enjoyable and fruitful learning experience.
