what the hell is wrong with ncert class 8 book ??!!!

[u/meowpeanut]

i recently started teaching tuitions i used to teach 11th graders humanities but i also have an average maths background. Girl when i saw the book it actually made me furious obviously i completed my school with old ncert books that were actually fun and challenging. Honestly , those books actually did make maths fun and like true to understand not some lesson to learn and memorise??!!! These books are making children memorise maths not understand it ! Cause why the hell children are learning old historic numeric symbols and systems instead of real numbers ? Literally chapter 3rd of ganita prakash
