Developed by our in-house team, the books follow NEP 2020 and NCF-FS and NCF-SE. They have clear structures, simple age-appropriate explanations and plenty of exercises for practice. The books also focus on understanding, revision and steady 21st-century skill building for the next generation.
Why do teachers like AASOKA books?
Besides following NEP 2020, NCF 2022 and NCF 2023 like other books, these follow a pattern that connects concepts with real-life learning, encourages active participation, and supports gradual skill-building across grades. Moreover, the flow helps students understand concepts without feeling rushed. Teachers get lessons that are planned well and easy to use in class. Each chapter connects smoothly with the next, which helps during year-long teaching.
How AASOKA Books Organise Learning
The strength of these books lies in how each chapter is structured. Students get:
- Bloom’s Taxonomy tagging for questions (Remember, Understand, Apply, Analyse, Evaluate, Create)
- HOTS questions to encourage critical thinking
- Practice questions in different formats
- SDG tagging to connect to real-world issues
- 21st-century skill tagging that helps develop skills like communication, creativity, problem-solving and life skills
- QR-linked resources for extra reading or visual explanations
- Clear summaries to help with revision
- 360-degree holistic report card for a complete growth profile of the student
These features support learning without adding complexity. Students can follow the layout easily, and teachers can plan lessons with clear checkpoints.
How AASOKA Books Support Holistic Learning
The books have 360-degree holistic progress cards to gauge a student’s learning growth. In addition, the books include activities and tasks that help teachers observe understanding, creativity, application, and behaviour. This supports progress tracking across different learning domains, not just marks.
For example, project-based tasks help teachers record real-world skills. Reflection prompts help students look at how they learn. The step-by-step exercises help teachers gather evidence for the progress card throughout the year.
