# The World Around Us — NCERT Class 5 — CBSE (NCERT textbooks) — Shishya school context

> Subject page: https://shishya.in/schooling/cbse/class-5/the-world-around-us · class: https://shishya.in/schooling/cbse/class-5 (context: https://shishya.in/schooling/cbse/class-5/context.md) · data as of 2026-09-27 (IST). Free to cite; link back to the subject page.
> Honesty: Shishya never reproduces, summarises or translates textbook text — read a chapter at its official link. Practice questions are Shishya's own, written by AI and answer-checked before they are shown; they are not NCERT exercises, not board questions and not previous-year questions. A chapter marked "not ready yet" has no Shishya notes or practice, and its Shishya page is not linked here.
> Children: Class 1-7 school pages have no chat tutor, offer no sign-in and ask no child to create an account. On Class 8-12 pages a student may sign in to practise a chapter with Shishya's own answer-checked questions and to ask the AI tutor about it — for students 13 and above, with a one-time self-declared age band, and the tutor says it is an AI. The 5-question practice on every chapter page needs no account, and no result is saved to any account or profile from it: Shishya records only an anonymous usage event (which chapter was practised and the score), the same cookie-based analytics every page view sends. A signed-in student's own practice set is saved to that account.
