Introduction: In our traditional learning system, usually we see only teachers play the central role in the classroom where students are listeners. Moreover, students cannot enjoy their lessons because teachers dominate in the classroom. So sometimes they feel inattentive in classroom, as a result student is virtually dropping out from the classroom. That is not exact teaching-learning system in our primary education. Learning should be more joyful, more interesting and life oriented. Then students will be mindful and active in classroom. So teaching learning activities should be child centered and we can develop our teacher as a facilitator. Among all the learning approach, we see that child centered learning approach is most appropriate in our education system.
