Synopsis: Our Wondrous World is an integrated, interdisciplinary textbook developed by NCERT for Class 3 students, aligning with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE) 2023. Designed for the subject "The World Around Us," the book fosters experiential, inquiry-based learning by connecting students' daily experiences with foundational concepts from science, social science, and environmental education. Divided into four thematic units—families and communities, life around us, gifts of nature, and our environment—the book encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and active engagement through storytelling, activities, illustrations, and open-ended questions. It also promotes values like empathy, inclusion, environmental sensitivity, and cultural awareness, nurturing holistic development and preparing children for the Middle Stage of schooling.
