Synopsis: The Social Science Part 1 – Class 6 textbook by the Karnataka Textbook Society offers an engaging and foundational overview of India’s historical, civic, and geographical heritage for young learners. Revised in 2024 to align with NCF 2005 and KCF 2007, the book adopts a child-centric and activity-based approach. The history section introduces students to prehistory, India’s cultural values, and Karnataka’s regional diversity. Lessons highlight India’s contributions to mathematics, science, and religion, and promote values such as non-violence and religious tolerance. The civics portion emphasizes responsible citizenship, constitutional values, and the types of government. Geography lessons build map-reading skills and explore the Earth’s major landforms. The textbook is thoughtfully structured to reduce rote learning, encourage curiosity, and support inclusivity. Special attention is given to integrating visuals, timelines, and activities to promote critical thinking, local relevance, and holistic development.
