Welcome to Our New Series "My Companion". As per the recent guidelines from NCF (National Curriculum

Framework) by NCERT and SCERT, we are introducing My Companion, an essential and innovative series for children of primary level. The series is prepared for Classes 1-5, covering the subjects: English, Hindi, Mathematics, and Environmental Studies (for Classes 3-5).

This series is a set of eight (8) part books for each class. Each book covers all subjects as mentioned above, in such a way that the students need to carry only one textbook at a time. Thus, it proposes the schools an opportunity to minimize a load of school bags on students both physically and psychologically. The series aims at encouraging inventiveness and competence in children with a well-graded thematic approach, simple language considering age appropriateness. Learning, teaching, and assessing concepts are based on Anderson's Taxonomy (Revised Bloom's). Vibrant colorful illustrations and pictures are added to grab the interest and attention of children."
