Abstract :
The Curiosity textbook represents a significant improvement over the old NCERT science textbook for grade 6th. It aligns well with modern educational standards and NEP-2020, offering a more holistic and engaging learning experience for students, even the title sparks interest in the respective subject. The new book’s focus on competency-based learning, combined with its rich illustrations and interactive activities, makes it a valuable resource for a deeper understanding and appreciation of science among learners. The textbook has added illustrations, and current information in a more narrative style, focusing on Indian contexts and stories.
