This resource sets the study of a locality, such as Chembakolli, within the context of India as a whole. It contains around 130 images, suggestions for activity using the images and teachers’ notes. The resource will support teachers in:
- Teaching about a locality in India
- Challenging pupils preconceptions and stereotypical views of India
- Presenting India as a vast, diverse and ancient country, where traditional lifestyles and cultures exist within a modern technological society.
This is a flexible resource which can be used creatively to enhance pupils’ global awareness. The activity suggestions are particular suited to key stage 2 but the images will also be of value to key stage 1.
