Listen to the Thinking Classroom song: A catchy tune that showcases a teacher's quest to create a Thinking Classroom.
Why should teachers 'explain' when students can think on their own?Science and Math workbooks that make everyone a better thinker. Including the teacher. (For CBSE schools, classes 4-10)
Imagine a class that begins with an interesting question. Imagine a class in which teachers allow most children the opportunity to think on their own. Imagine a classroom in which many declarative statements of teachers are converted into questions.
Such a classroom is Thinking Classroom. Thinking Classroom is a set of Science and Math workbooks offered to CBSE schools. These workbooks are offered from grades 4-10.
Would you like to make Thinking Classroom workbooks a part of your booklist?
Science and Math are filled with many amazing concepts. Open Door’s Thinking Classroom is a set of workbooks that contained questions like: ‘What should Virat Kohli eat for breakfast before a cricket match?’, ‘Does sheep fear pain when it is sheared?’
"It has helped our children to think like young scientists."
- Ms. Deepika Thapar Singh,
Principal, Credence High School, Dubai
These workbooks are mapped exactly with the CBSE curriculum. The sequence of chapters, the sequence of topics are same as that suggested by CBSE.
"Children are more interested in Science than they were before."
- Ms. Sunita George
Principal, Bombay Scottish School, Mumbai
Through a variety of questions such as open-ended questions, hypothetical questions, quizzes, Open Door’s Thinking Classroom makes children think like never before. After each question children need to write their thoughts.
"Open Door's questions are truly out of the world"
- Ms. Manjula Raman

Open Door started in 2013. Today, we offer programs like Thinking Assessments, Thinking Classroom, the Subject Mastery Program for teachers, and a Critical Thinking Program for students.
We imagine a world where every child learns by thinking—not by memorizing. Our programs have "beautiful questions" to make children think and question, helping them build lifelong understanding of Science and Math.
A team of young graduates from top Indian universities (like IITs and NITs) designs the questions. These questions are making 300000+ students think more than before.
Open Door offers 4 main educational programs:
Thinking Assessments
For Classes 3–10: Topic-based tests with thought-provoking questions to build lifelong Science/Math understanding.
Thinking Classroom
For Classes 4–10: CBSE-aligned workbooks that replace traditional teaching with real-world questions.
Critical Thinking Program
For Classes 6–8: Developed with IIT Gandhinagar to help teachers guide students' critical thinking.
Subject Mastery Program
For Teachers: Helps Science/Math teachers master their subjects through assessment and improvement.
These are topic-wise assessments for classes 3–10. In therse assessments there are thought-provoking questions to help students deeply understand Science and Math.
For classes 4–10, it provides CBSE-mapped workbooks that replace boring lectures. Students tackle real-world questions like "Can you design Virat Kohli’s diet?" or "Would we hear ourselves if we shouted on the Moon?"
This program is designed with IIT Gandhinagar for classes 6–8. Its purpose is to help teachers guide students to think critically during regular school hours.
This program helps Science/Math teachers master their subjects. It allows schools to assess teachers’ knowledge and improve it in just 4 months.
