Adverbs are words that modify or describe verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. They
provide information about how, when, where, or to what extent an action is
happening. Here are some examples of different types of adverbs:
Adverbs of Manner:
• She ran quickly.
• He speaks softly.
• They performed the experiment carefully.
Adverbs of Time:
• They will arrive soon.
• He woke up early.
• I have a meeting tomorrow.
Adverbs of Place:
• The cat is sitting there.
• We looked everywhere for the missing keys.
• They went upstairs to the attic.
Adverbs of Degree:
• It's extremely hot today.
• She is very talented.
• He spoke quite loudly.

Period-1- 40 minutes
Objective:
Students will be able to understand the concepts of seasons and climate, identify factors that
influence seasons and climate, and analyze the factors affecting the climate in India.
➢ Begin with a brief review of the four seasons and ask students to share what
they already know about each season.
Seasons refer to the four distinct periods of the year—spring, summer,
autumn (fall), and winter—characterized by specific climatic condition.
These changes are primarily caused by the Earth's axial tilt and its orbit
around the Sun.(revolution)
➢ Introduce the concept of Earth's axial tilt and its role in causing seasons.
➢ Show pictures or diagrams illustrating the axial tilt and its impact on the
changing angle of sunlight throughout the year. (Use globe and refer pg. no
77 )
Equinoxes:
Definition: At two points in the year (Mar 21st and September 23rd) the sun
illuminates the northern and southern hemispheres equally resulting in equal length
of day and night. These are known as Equinoxes.
Solstices: It refers to two points (June 21st and Dec 21 st)in the Earth's orbit around
the Sun when the axial tilt of the Earth is either inclined towards the Sun (summer
solstice) or away from the Sun (winter solstice). These points mark the longest and
shortest days of the year and occur annually.

➢ Begin by asking students what seasons they are familiar with and what
changes they notice in the weather and environment.
➢ Introduce the concept that India experiences four main seasons, just like many
other parts of the world.
➢ Show a simple map of India and explain that due to its diverse geography,
different regions in India experience seasons differently.
Refer pg no 78 and 79
Recap of Seasons
Teacher modelling ( 40 mints)
Activity: Students will get fruits and vegetables (salad) available in that season for
snacks time. Discussion for the same and also about other seasonal fruits and
vegetables. Refer pg no 80
Keep in mind that the availability of specific fruits and vegetables can vary based on
geographic location, climate, and agricultural practices. Additionally, modern
transportation and global trade can make certain fruits and vegetables available year-
round in many places. Eating seasonally often supports local agriculture and can lead to
fresher, more flavorful produce.
Period 5-(40 minutes )
Climate and weather are closely related but distinct concepts that describe
atmospheric conditions on Earth.
The climate of a country depends upon several factors. The influence of these
factors on the climate of India is briefly described below.
Latitudinal extent: India is located near the equator, which contributes to its
overall warm and tropical climate. The position relative to the equator influences
the intensity of sunlight received throughout the year.
Altitude: The temperature decreases with increase in height. So, places in the
mountain are cooler than in the plains.
Distance from the sea: Compared to land water takes longer to heat or to cool. So
peninsular (area surrounded by water on all three sides) India is surrounded by
water in the east, west and south experiences moderate climate compared to North
India which has extreme climate.
Monsoon winds: Monsoon winds are seasonal wind patterns that result from the
differential heating of land and water. These winds are characterized by their
rhythmic reversal in direction between summer and winter. The term "monsoon" is
often associated with the seasonal winds that bring heavy rainfall, especially in
South Asia. There are two primary monsoon systems globally: the Southwest
Monsoon and the Northeast Monsoon.
Location of the Himalayas , western and Eastern ghats: The Himalayan mountains
in the North act as a barrier to the cold winds from the central Asia ,thus preventing
severe winter in India. In Peninsular India ,the western and Eastern ghats force the
monsoon wind to give plenty of rainfall in the coastal region.
Calamities are events that cause great and often sudden damage or distress.
Climate related calamities: Climate-related calamities refer to extreme events or
disasters that are influenced by changes in climate patterns.
1. Floods: They are the most common natural disaster caused due to heavy rains.
It is common in the Indo -Gangetic plains.
Impact: Floods can damage infrastructure, destroy crops, displace communities, and
lead to loss of life. Coastal areas are particularly vulnerable to flooding due to rising
sea levels.
Impact: Droughts can lead to water scarcity, crop failures, food shortages, and
conflicts over resources. They also affect ecosystems, water supplies, and
livelihoods.
Impact: These storms can result in strong winds, heavy rainfall, storm surges, and
flooding, causing widespread damage to coastal areas.
Objectives:
➢ Students will be able to define cell and compare between prokaryotic and
eukaryotic cell.
➢ Students will understand the concept of biological classification and the Five
Kingdoms of Life.
➢ Students will be able to identify and describe examples of organisms
belonging to each kingdom.
Cell:
A Cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life. It is the smallest
independently functioning unit in the structure of living organisms and is capable of
performing all the necessary processes for life. Cells are the building blocks of
tissues, organs, and organisms. They come in various shapes, sizes, and types, but all
cells share fundamental similarities in their structure and function.
Prokaryotic Cells:
Prokaryotic cells are simpler and primitive in structure. A body is made of organs
.Similarly a cell is composed of organelles. Like our body has brain ,the cell also
has a brain like structure called the nucleus.
Prokaryotes are single celled organisms.
Prokaryotic cells are generally smaller and are found in organisms like bacteria and
archaea.
Eukaryotic Cells:
Eukaryotic cells are more complex and evolved than prokaryotic cells.
They have a true nucleus, enclosed in a nuclear membrane, which houses the
genetic material (DNA).
Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria,
endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and more.
Eukaryotic cells are found in plants, animals, fungi, and protists.
Cell Structure:
Prokaryotic cells without a true nucleus.
Lack membrane-bound organelles.
Have a cell wall, but the composition varies between bacteria and archaea.
Reproduction
Reproduction primarily occurs through binary fission, a form of asexual
reproduction.
Habitats:
Found in a wide range of environments, including soil, water, extreme
environments (such as hot springs and deep-sea hydrothermal vents), and the
human body.
Nutrition: Some can chemically make their own food while others are heterotrophs.
Kingdom Protista
Kingdom Protista is a diverse group of simplest eukaryotic organisms that don't fit into
the categories of plants, animals, or fungi. Protists can be unicellular, multicellular, or
colonial.
Cell Structure:
Reproduction:
Reproduction methods include binary fission, multiple fission, sexual reproduction
through the formation of spores, and alternation of generations.
Habitats:
Found in aquatic environments, including freshwater and marine habitats.
Some protists can also live in moist soil or in symbiotic relationships with other
organisms.
Example: Plasmodium
➢ How many of you enjoy eating mushroom or have you seen umbrella shaped
things near trees or tree trunks during rainy season?
Teacher modelling:
Kingdom Fungi comprises a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that includes yeasts,
molds, and mushrooms. Fungi are distinct from plants, animals, and bacteria, forming a
separate kingdom based on their unique characteristics and modes of nutrition.
Cell Structure:
Nutrition:
Reproduction:
Reproduce both sexually and asexually.
Asexual reproduction commonly involves the production of spores.
Habitats:
