Living And Sharing With Others is the second of five books in the Carlong Primary Integrated Studies for Year 3. The Year 3 books play a fundamental role at the primary level in preparing the pupils for the upper primary level. Each activity-oriented textbook will help to prepare pupils for the demands of the discrete subject approach (Grades 4-6). The activities are lively, practical, challenging and generate an enthusiasm for learning through group work, puzzles, games and the Arts.

Central themes within the book:

• (FQ 1) Basic needs and other needs. Basic needs = water, shelter, food, clothing and air. Other needs = love, friendship, respect and safety (are a few examples). Pupils are also taught the difference between the two e.g. things that we can live without and things that we cannot live without. Also wants (as opposed to needs) are also dealt with e.g. toys, cell phone etc.
• (FQ 2) Satisfying other needs is also a key topic. Here needs such as worship (prayer and different religions), safety/security, friendship, health, creativity, love and respect are explored further.
• (FQ 3) Does satisfying other needs make a difference to life. This section not only focuses on the individual but also on the wider community, nation and the world. Other needs and values such as respect, love, peace, non-violence and right action do make a difference to the way we all live (in school, at home and in the wider community).
