CLASS VII

Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat Activity- Telangana with reference to the chapter

Rulers and Buildings

Activity: Scrap Book making on the paired state Telangana

Learning Outcomes

Students will be able to:

● Understand a sense of the range of materials, skills, and styles used to build
waterworks, places of worship, palaces and havelis, forts, gardens that incorporate
the principles of sustainability
● Explore the engineering and construction skills, artisanal organisation, and
resources required for construction works
● Illustrate how contemporary documents, inscriptions, and actual buildings can be
used to reconstruct history

Details of Project:

Traditional architecture has evolved over generations in response to the local climate,
topography, culture and context. It employs locally available natural materials and
indigenous construction techniques. Hence, it is sustainable, cost-effective and has a
strong aesthetic character. Since time immemorial, homes, monuments have used stone
for building walls, roofs and floors. Stone is strong and durable, in addition to being
available in a wide range of appealing colours, grains and textures.
 Between the eighth and the eighteenth centuries kings and their officers built two kinds
of structures—the first were forts, palaces, garden residences and tombs and the second
was structures meant for public activity including temples, mosques, tanks, bazaars, etc.

Acknowledging that many of India's historic sites can teach us important lessons about
sustainability and building construction, students will collect the information of state
(HARYANA/TELANGANA) and make a SCRAPBOOK including the statistical data of
the state. Students can draw/paste the picture of the topic and please note the following
points to make you research looks more interesting:

● Basic knowledge
● Self-introduction
● Historical place
● Techniques used by the builders that incorporate the principles of
sustainability
● Interesting information (steps taken by Telangana/Haryana
Government for sustainable development)
● Steps taken by the government to preserve Heritage site

Important points to be taken care of while making Scrapbook

❖ Cover page of the scrapbook should be decorated as per the Topic.

❖ First page to be left blank.
❖ Index should be maintained on the second page with the following headings:

S.No. Title Page No. Teacher’s Sign.
