Secondary Geography for Pakistan
For Classes 6 to 8
Dean Smart
The series Secondary Geography for Pakistan by Dean Smart is based on Peter Moss’s accoladed series Secondary Social Studies for Pakistan. The books focus on inquiry-based learning, with the intent to develop critical thinking, particularly catering to students in grades 6, 7, and 8. The series is aligned with the National Curriculum of Pakistan and is the sister series to Secondary History for Pakistan. The geographical knowledge imparted by the three books of Secondary Geography for Pakistan helps students develop a deeper understanding of physical, human, and environmental geography of Pakistan, the subcontinent, and the world at large. This series aims to equip students with essential critical engagement and problem-solving skills by exposing them to a variety of print and technological tools and resources that aid geographers. Both series, Secondary Geography for Pakistan, and Secondary History for Pakistan, have content to help students learn about citizenship, which is a core domain in social sciences.
