This book is the third in a series of publications of the Institute of Sathya Sai Education, Mumbai, India. It is part of the complete package of text materials for use by schools in India implementing the programme of Education for Human Excellence.

The five teaching Techniques are an integral part of the methodology for inculcating the values among children. These techniques have been trial tested in several schools for the past few years, and their impact have been found to be very deep and long lasting.

The use of these techniques in the classroom require a teacher to be proficient and versatile in the communication aspect. Moreover, it is very important to remember that the impact on children is directly dependent upon the teachers faith in the system and practice of these techniques in daily life.

With experience, and adopting a cooperative attitude, the teacher can equip herself with new and innovative songs, stories and prayers. In fact, with a little amount of devotion and dedication the teacher will find it very natural to recall these techniques to suit a particular occasion or class.
