    Bhutan Geography The Kingdom of Bhutan lies in the eastern Himalayas, between Tibet to the north the Indian territories of Assam and West Bengal, to the south and east, and Sikkim to the west. The Kingdom has a total area of about 47,000 square kilometers. Located in the heart of the high Himalayan mountain range, Bhutan is a land-locked country surrounded by mountains. The sparsely populated Greater Himalayas, bounded to the north by the Tibetan plateau, reach heights of over 7,300 meters (23,950ft.), and extend southward losing height, to form the fertile valleys of the Lesser Himalayas divided by the Wang, Sunkosh, Tongsa and Manas Rivers. Monsoon influences promote dense forestation in this region and alpine growth at higher altitudes. The cultivated central uplands and Himalayan foothills support the majority of the population. In the south, the Daurs Plain drops sharply away from the Himalayas into the large tracts of semi-tropical forest, savannah grassland and bamboo jungle VISITORS INFORMATION Tourism Policy Customs Authority What to Take

    37. Rationale
    bhutan geography deals with the natural and manmade systems. The project work can be EITHER on bhutan geography OR on Principles of Geography.
    http://www.education.gov.bt/Departments/Dept_SchoolEdn/capsd/IXGeo.html
    GEOGRAPHY
    Rationale
    The geography syllabus in classes IX and X deals with the principles of Geography and World Studies, Bhutan Geography and study of topo sheet. It also provides pupils with opportunities to identify and locate and learn about important physical features, climate and vegetation belts of Asia; physical features, distribution of agricultural products, minerals, and population and chief cities of South Asia; and physical features and selected places and dzongs of Bhutan. The Principles of Geography and World Studies cover all the phenomena on the earth's surface and explain the principles of day and night, seasons, climate, surface features, erosion, plant and animal life as well as distribution and development of different human communities and activities in different regions of the world. This is largely aimed at development of understanding in the learners the inter-relationship between different elements of the environment and the processes which take place in the environment leading to changes in the environment in order that such an understanding would help them to conserve the resources, protect and live in harmony with the environment. Bhutan Geography deals with the natural and man-made systems. It is aimed at providing the learners with a good knowledge of the land formation, climatic conditions and their impact on the vegetation and the activities of the people in order to develop a better understanding of the country. It also helps them to become acquainted with the richness of Bhutan's natural resources and at the same time create in them an awareness of the likely consequences of overuse so that they would appreciate the need to make prudent decisions in the use of the available resources.

    38. II. Aims
    In this class the bhutan geography course is intended to provide pupils a closer The student activities at the end of each chapter in bhutan geography
    http://www.education.gov.bt/Departments/Dept_SchoolEdn/capsd/VIISStudies.html
    HISTORY SYLLABUS FOR CLASS SEVEN Introduction History in Class VII is to be taught as a separate subject as in class VI. The course for this class is presented in two sections: Section A deals with Bhutan History and Section B deals with World History. In this Class, the Bhutan History course is intended to build in students knowledge based on the general foundation of the country's history laid in Class VI. As a whole, it aims at developing in students a positive attitude towards the preservation of Bhutan's rich cultural heritage and traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation. It also aims at making students fully aware of the importance of the past in relation to the present and of the strong need of strengthening and continuing the country's rich culture and traditions into the future. The student activities given at the end of each chapter in the Bhutan history text are largely designed to help students learn to organise materials and information for themselves. Through these activities it is hoped that students will learn by doing and understanding rather than simply committing facts to memory. There are factual questions, as well, designed to help students recall facts and organise them in sequential notes. The activities also include map-work, through which it is hoped that students will have a clearer understanding of the location and history of places mentioned in the text. The World History course covers only 5 chapters so that students are not overloaded. This course aims at providing students History related knowledge of the outside world. It is important that students be exposed to some past events of and changes undergone in other countries as well so that they will develop a better understanding of the nature of historical changes.
