NCERT Class 3 EVS Our Wondrous World Chapter 6 Living in Harmony PDF (2026-27)

Living in Harmony explores how humans, animals and plants share homes and depend on one another—through Shambhu and his father resting under a forest mango tree where monkeys disperse seeds. Students learn about domestic and uninvited animals in our houses, how plants give us food, medicine, fibre and timber, how animals fertilise soil and disperse seeds, and how we can show kindness by feeding birds and caring for stray animals.
