Science is a dynamic body of knowledge that enables an understanding of the world around us through a process of inquiry. This process leads to acquisition of valid knowledge about the world, and of scientific values and capacities, such as formulating questions and hypotheses, inquiry, evidence-based thinking, creativity, understanding cause and effect relationships, and decision making. But most of all, when taught well, science develops an understanding of the physical world, and develops other important capacities, values and dispositions. Keeping these guidelines in mind from the NCFSE 2023, this series is redesigned to cater to the needs of the learners that need to develop the skills and aptitude for learning science.  Stride Ahead with Science follows the five-step learning process called Panchpadi as laid out in the NCF-FS 2022 and NCFSE 2023.
