Preface

New Social Studies and Population Education is a graded series of
books for school children. This series is prepared especially for the children of English
medium schools of Nepal as per the Basic Education Curriculum indorsed by the CDC,
Government of Nepal. It is an appropriately planned graded series fulfilling the needs of
students and teachers in the changing situation of our country and the world.

Salient features of the book:
The entire curriculum has been divided into 10 units as specified by the Curriculum
Development Centre, Government of Nepal. Each unit consists of lessons covering
entire syllabus and subject matters.
Every lesson has been supplemented with suitable pictures and illustrations. The
contents have been presented in a simple and interesting manner to draw the
attention of the students (such as letters, dialogues, stories, news, research reports,
etc.)
Evaluation exercises are presented in various ways such as class room activities,
exercises including both subjective and objective questions, project work, community
work, report preparation, etc so that the learners can use their creativity and
potentiality in the subject matters and other related aspects.
The series are appropriately illustrated books that appropriately reflect the social,
ethnic, geographical diversities, historical, economic, demographic and other major
concerns.
These are child-centred and activity-oriented books with sufficient formative and
summative types of evaluation activities to test the understanding and knowledge of
the students.
The meaning of difficult words are given at the end of every lesson for the convenience
of the teacher and students.
