The series provides functional, relevant, and practical examples that pupils can use in their daily-life interactions with the community, the country, and the world. It allows pupils to figure out the big ideas and essential understandings revolving around the lessons and challenges them to constantly check on their prior learning through the Essential Questions found at the beginning of each chapter.
