Curriculum alignment

Relevant to every curriculum

The content on this website has been designed with cross-curricular applicability in mind. For IB PYP and MYP students, the material directly supports Units of Inquiry under the transdisciplinary themes of Sharing the Planet and How the World Works, as well as the IB's commitment to international-mindedness and environmental action. For students in Indian CBSE and ICSE schools, the content aligns with Environmental Studies (EVS), Science, Geography and Social Studies syllabi across grades 3-8, and supports NCERT learning objectives related to biodiversity, ecosystems and conservation. For British curriculum and international schools, it supports KS2 and KS3 Science (ecosystems, food chains, adaptation), Geography (India, climate zones, biomes) and PSHE/citizenship strands. The tiger conservation timeline suits History and Global Perspectives at upper primary level. All materials can be adapted for mixed-ability classrooms.
