LEARNING TO BE GREAT – BOOK 5 Value Education & Life Skills for Class 5

Value Education & Life Skills for Class 5 (NEP 2020 Aligned)

Learning To Be Great – Book 5 is the culmination of the spiral learning journey of the series. Designed for senior primary students, this book revisits core values and life skills introduced in earlier classes, but at a deeper, more reflective and mature level.

The emphasis in Book 5 is on internalisation — helping children think independently, analyse situations, manage emotions, and make responsible choices in real life.

Aligned with NEP 2020, this book supports holistic development by integrating values, life skills, emotional intelligence, scientific thinking, environmental awareness and cultural respect.
