FAQ
Why did Mini, Bholu, and Rani draw the same brick differently in Chapter 2?
Because each child looked at the brick from a different viewing position — top view, front view, and side view — showing different rectangular faces of the brick.
How does a grid help in the Treasure Hunt activity?
A grid divides a map into equal squares using rows and columns, making it easy to pinpoint any object’s exact location and count steps between two places.
