प्रथमं सत्रम्

सुष्ठु गृहीतः चौरः, अव्ययमाला, किं मिथ्या किं वास्तवम्, विध्यर्थमाला, वीरवनिता विश्पला, पिन्कोड्-प्रवर्तकः · Textbook: Sanskrit Anand – Std IX (संस्कृत आनन्द, संयुक्त)

Lesson 1 सुष्ठु गृहीतः चौरः

A short Birbal story in easy Sanskrit prose: a rich man loses his money bag, and Birbal catches the thief among six servants with a clever trick of 'magic sticks'. The रम्यसंस्कृतम् boxes after the lesson teach two very useful indeclinables — the 'having done' form (-त्वा / -य) and the 'in order to' form (-तुम्).

Lesson 2 अव्ययमाला

A garland (माला) of five सुभाषितs chosen because each one shows off indeclinables (अव्यय) — the -तुम्, -त्वा and -य forms you met in Lesson 1. The verses are meant to be learnt by heart (कण्ठस्थीकरणार्थम्). The रम्यसंस्कृतम् box that follows, वर्णानां साहचर्यम्, introduces vowel sandhi in a playful way: the letters themselves explain how they join.

Lesson 3 किं मिथ्या किं वास्तवम्?

A modern one-scene play by Mugdha Risbud about a thirteen-year-old girl who would rather play every game on her mobile phone than go out with her friends. Her mother teaches her, with a clever trick about food pictures, the difference between the virtual world and the real one. The रम्यसंस्कृतम् pages that follow teach the command / request mood (लोट् लकार), and there is a funny sandhi story, a song and an Upanishad dialogue.

Lesson 4 विध्यर्थमाला

A second garland of five सुभाषितs, this time built around the विधिलिङ् (the 'should' mood): त्यजेत्, पिबेत्, वदेत्, रक्षेत्, जयेत्. Each verse tells us what a good person ought to do. The pages after the lesson explain vṛddhi, yaṇ, ayādi and visarga sandhi, how the verb follows the subject in the active voice (कर्तृवाच्य), and the past-tense participle -तवत् (पीतवान्, गतवती).

Lesson 5 वीरवनिता विश्पला

A thrilling story from the ऋग्वेद (1.116.15), retold from the magazine सम्भाषणसन्देश: queen विश्पला fights beside her husband, loses a leg in battle, gets an iron leg fitted by the divine surgeons अश्विनीकुमारौ, and returns next morning to win the war. The lesson is written almost entirely with the past participle -तवत् (कृतवान्, कृतवती). A visarga-sandhi page and a रम्यसंस्कृतम् page on verbs that need a fixed case follow.

Lesson 6 पिन्कोड्-प्रवर्तकः, महान् संस्कृतज्ञः

Have you ever wondered why every Indian address ends with six digits? This lesson begins with a chat between two boys, गौरवः and अमेयः, about a letter to Bengaluru, and then tells the story of श्रीराम भिकाजी वेलणकर — a postal officer, mathematician and Sanskrit scholar who designed the PIN code system, launched on 15 August 1972. It also shows him as a musician and a playwright with over a hundred Sanskrit works.

द्वितीयं सत्रम्

सूक्तिसुधा, मनसः स्वच्छता, अमरकोषः, काव्यशास्त्रविनोदः, मनोराज्यस्य फलम् · Textbook: Sanskrit Anand – Std IX (संस्कृत आनन्द, संयुक्त)

Lesson 7 सूक्तिसुधा

'Nectar of wise sayings' — five famous सुभाषितs, each ending in a सूक्ति (a crisp saying) that people quote even in other languages: विद्याधनं सर्वधनप्रधानम्, वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्, परोपकारार्थमिदं शरीरम्, सत्सङ्गतिः किं न करोति, यत्र नार्यः पूज्यन्ते. The lesson also has an अमरकोष box of synonyms, and the रम्यसंस्कृतम् pages teach the numbers 5–10 and the passive voice (कर्मवाच्य) through the story of Vyasa and Ganesha.

Lesson 8 मनसः स्वच्छता

A touching memory from Sane Guruji's famous Marathi book 'श्यामची आई' (Shyam's Mother), presented in Sanskrit by Dr. Manjusha Kulkarni. Little Shyam makes his mother spread her sari on a stone so that his wet feet do not get muddy — and she gently turns the moment into a lesson about keeping the mind clean as well. The page ends with an अमरकोष box of fifteen synonym lines.

Lesson 9 अमरकोषः

A library visit turns into a lesson on dictionaries. Students spot a big cupboard full of कोषs (word collections) and their teacher explains what a कोष is, why it is useful, and why the अमरकोष of अमरसिंह — a dictionary in verse — has been learnt by heart by students for centuries. Use this page together with the अमरकोष boxes on pages 46 and 50.

Lesson 10 काव्यशास्त्रविनोदः

'Fun with poetry' — Sanskrit is famous for clever verses that play with letters and meanings. This lesson (marked कण्ठस्थीकरणार्थम्, to be learnt by heart) has five such verses: a word that turns into its opposite when read backwards, a riddle (प्रहेलिका) whose answer is the coconut, a verse whose meaning flips when two words are read as one, a puzzle question (कूटप्रश्नः) whose answer is a word, and a समस्यापूर्ति — a 'problem line' that the poet completes with imagination.

Lesson 11 मनोराज्यस्य फलम्

'The fruit of day-dreaming' — a story from the पञ्चतन्त्र (book 5, अपरीक्षितकारकम्, 'acting without thinking'). A miserly beggar fills a pot with barley flour, hangs it above his bed and falls asleep planning how that flour will make him rich. In his dream he lifts a stick to beat a dog — and smashes the real pot. The lesson is full of future-tense (लृट्) verbs. The pages also have व्यञ्जन-sandhi boxes and a रम्यसंस्कृतम् section on how an adjective agrees with its noun (विशेषण-विस्तारः).
