Vikas Drawing and Colouring is a series of 10 books in Art Education with a very fresh look. Prepared for students from KG to Secondary levels, these books are designed with a vision of the interests as well as needs of children at various stages. Book B, the second book in the series, provides graded colouring exercises for KG kids. What’s more, this book teaches the children the basics of drawing. Children are also taught to make dots and strokes, and to draw vertical and horizontal lines. These drawing exercises would help improve the motor functions of the hands of children and give more control to their fingers. These activities may also help the children in improving their handwriting. Art teachers may encourage the children to practise more of such exercises in rough drawing books.

A key objective of primary teacher education is to develop the basic theoretical and practical knowledge about the teaching profession, so that the teacher’s attitude and abilities can be geared towards professional commitment and competence. KLB’S DISTINCTION PTE SERIES has been developed with this objective in mind. The approach adopted is cognisant of the fact that the primary school learner is the centre of the primary teacher education. The aim of the series is to foster a consciousness for educational excellence in every primary student-teacher. DISTINCTION CRE for PTE is a comprehensive textbook which has been developed along the revised Christian Religious Education syllabus for Primary Teacher Education. Ten units of both years one and two of the CRE course have been handled exhaustively. The topics address the objectives of teaching CRE at this level, which also encompass the National Goals of Education in Kenya. Content for Programmes of Pastoral Instruction has been emphasised to enhance the teacher trainee’s skills in handling it. This book will equip the teacher trainees with knowledge, skills, attitudes and values which they will eventually impart to their pupils. In-text study questions and activities have been incorporated in this book to make it interactive. Sample questions for the Mid-Course Primary Teachers Education Examinations have also been provided. These course books have been written by experts with a wealth of experience in teaching. They are a must-read for every primary school student-teacher. They are also invaluable resources for practising teachers who wish to refresh their knowledge of the respective subjects and teaching methodologies; making teaching the fulfilling and noble profession that it is.
