Chapters Overview
ምዕራፍ 1: እኛ (Us)
This unit introduces students to the concept of self-care and health. It focuses on understanding the food we eat (የምንመገበው ምግብ), the importance of staying healthy (ጤነኞች ነን), and maintaining personal hygiene (የግል ንጽሕናችንን እንጠብቃስን). Students learn how proper nutrition and cleanliness contribute to well-being.
ምዕራፍ 2: ማኅበረሰባችን (Our Community)
This chapter helps students understand the structure and importance of community life. It explains the roles of community members (የማኀበረሰብ አባላት), the value of living together (በማኀበረሰብ ውስጥ መኖር), and the importance of work (የጉልበት አስፈላጊነት). Additionally, students engage in activities like making items from clay, paper, and juice containers (ከሸክላ፣ ጁሶና ወረቀት የተስራ ነገሮችን መሥራት) to encourage creativity and recycling.
ምዕራፍ 3: የተፈጥሮ አካባቢያችን (Our Natural Environment)
This unit explores nature and the environment around students. Topics include natural phenomena (የተፈጥሮ ክስተቶች), natural resources (የተፈጥሮ ሀብቶች), plants (ተክሎች), and animals (አንስሳት) in the surroundings. Students learn to appreciate and care for the environment as part of their daily lives.
ምዕራፍ 4: ክርስ ከተማችን (Our Town)
The final chapter focuses on students’ local area, helping them recognize their town’s location (የክርስ ከተማችን መገኛ), land features (የመሬት ገጽታ), and important institutions (ተቋማት) found nearby. It also introduces economic activities (የምጣኔ ሀብታዊ አንቅስቃሴዎች) that sustain their community, encouraging awareness of how people interact with their environment.
