Edits and Corrections:
The following edits and corrections must be made as a condition of adoption:
1. Grade 6, TE/SE p. 130: Under “India’s early civilizations,” the first sentence suggests that “The early civilizations of India were nothing short of surprising.” This statement can be interpreted as biased. Correction: remove “were nothing short of surprising,” and change to “The early civilizations of India built vast empires…”
2. Grade 6, TE/SE p. 132: The Indus Valley civilization is referred to as the “Indus Sarasvati Civilization.” This is a subject of controversy, not settled fact. Correction: Remove mention of “Sarasvati” and refer to it as “Indus Valley Civilization” as has already been done elsewhere in the program.
3. Grade 6, TE/SE p. 136: The Sarasvati River has never been proven to exist. Remove the two sentences starting with “Another river...” and ending with ”…now dry river.” And replace with, “Ancient Indian texts also refer to another river called the Sarasvati. Scholars today are undertaking scientific research to determine whether the Sarasvati River actually existed. Recently, archaeologists have found many towns and villages buried in sand in the area of the Indus Valley Civilization.”
Also remove the sentence, “India’s first civilization grew…and Sarasvati rivers.”
Change “After the Indus Sarasvati Civilization…” to “After the Indus Valley Civilization.”
4. Grade 6, TE p. 139: Remove reference to Sarasvati in “Apply Concepts” and replace with “Indus Valley Merchants.”
Also remove “Sarasvati” in section called, “What Mysteries Surround the Indus Valley Civilization?” and replace with “Indus Valley.”
5. Grade 6, TE/SE pp. 141-142: Under “Who were the Indo-Aryans”? Three theories are mentioned. All are speculative. None is either proved or disproved. Correction: Remove the sentence, “This theory has proven to be false, however.”
6. Grade 6, TE/SE p. 145: Caste System Chart, “Dalits” are not part of the caste system. Remove the row “Dalits.”
7. Grade 6, SE/TE p. 150, paragraph 4: “They helped explain religious ideals and how people should live their lives.” Correction: This sentence is repeated twice so omit the last sentence in this paragraph.
8. Grade 6, SE/TE p. 151, paragraph 3: “What are Hindus’ beliefs…” Section missing period at the end of penultimate sentence.
9. Grade 6, AJ p. 174: Roman Numerals and Arabic Numerals are mislabeled in both columns. Correction: switch titles of columns.
