HANDS ON Science 4A

HANDS ON series from SAAR has been developed for pre-primary& primary courses.

HANDS ON series from SAAR has been developed for pre primary and primary course structure

for all subjects. It is a comprehensive work to make the child conceptualize, act, reflect, apply &

establish the knowledge shared during the course of teaching the subject.

The HANDS ON series of Science gets its stimulus from the BSCS’s 5E Instructional Model,

Bloom’s Taxonomy and Kolb’s Cycle to create a book based completely on Experiential Learning.

It is based on the research ‘How People Learn?’

Research has shown that children learn: 10% of what they READ, 20% of what they HEAR, 30%

of what they SEE, 50% of what they HEAR & READ, 70% of what they SAY and 90% of what

they DO!

So, SAAR believes in imparting knowledge that is transferrable to daily life, is fun to learn and

helps to acquire values. The core structure focuses on both scholastic and co-scholastic activities.

The main objective of the HANDS ON Science series for classes 1 and 2 is to arouse an educated

awareness among students; and develop them as Inquirers, Thinkers, Communicators & Risk -

takers with tasks based on-

• Conceptualization (Knowledge & Understanding)

• Reflection ( Observation & Review)

• Application (Relate to real life)

• Connection ( Transfer knowledge across subjects)
