NCERT Solutions for Class 4 Arts Chapter 8: Look Around
"Look Around" closes the Theatre unit by asking children to observe the world and bring what they see into performance. Careful looking, at people at work, animals, markets and daily routines, provides the material for characters and scenes, and children may mime activities such as a vendor selling vegetables or a farmer sowing. The chapter builds observation, empathy and expression, and connects theatre with real life. Taking children outdoors to watch and listen, as the book's introductions suggest, makes the chapter come alive. This is chapter 8 of 18 in Bansuri, the Class 4 Arts textbook, in the Theatre section, and begins on page 82 of the printed 2026-27 book. It follows "Let's Create" and is followed by "Sing and Play". The activities in "Look Around" are suggestions that teachers can select, adapt and extend. Children may work alone or in groups, and the book reminds teachers that diversity of expression is the beauty of childhood. Assessment tools in the book track growth in competence and skill over time. Families can help by providing simple materials, displaying the child's work and encouraging practice at home without criticism. Provide simple materials at home, such as paper, crayons, clay, leaves or household objects, and let your child explore without worrying about the result. Display their work and ask them to talk about what they made or performed in "Look Around". Avoid comparing it with others' work. This overview is written from the 2026-27 textbook's Contents page, its preface and the chapter title, to help families and teachers prepare. Please read the chapter itself for exact content, activities and exercises.
