The Activity Book of Cambridge Global English, APSACS Edition (Third edition), Level 3 is the practice partner of Learner’s Book 3 for Class 3 in Army Public Schools. It is published by Cambridge University Press and ‘Based on National Curriculum of Pakistan 2022, 2026 edition’. The red cover shows two children painting a snail on an easel. Available to order now for the 2027-28 session.
Where the Learner’s Book teaches, the Activity Book makes the child write, read and think. Each of the nine units has five topic lessons, a quiz and a one-page ‘My global progress’ self-check, so the child learns to judge their own work.
Full table of contents: Units 1 to 9, every lesson and page
Every lesson title is listed below exactly as printed, with its page number.
Unit 1: Working together
- 1. Ramadan (p. 4)
- 2. Let’s play! (p. 6)
- 3. Team activities (p. 8)
- 4. Performing a play (p. 10)
- 5. Following the team rules (p. 12)
- 6. Quiz (p. 14)
- My global progress (p. 15)
Why it helps: The opening lessons practise reading about Ramadan and then move to games and a play. Performing a play gets a quiet child to speak, and ‘Following the team rules’ connects to fair play.
Unit 2: Family and memories
- 1. Wedding photos (p. 16)
- 2. Wedding customs (p. 18)
- 3. When I was young (p. 20)
- 4. Birthdays (p. 22)
- 5. Special memories (p. 24)
- 6. Quiz (p. 26)
- My global progress (p. 27)
Why it helps: Writing about weddings, childhood and birthdays is easy because children have personal stories. ‘When I was young’ practises the past tense in a natural way.
Unit 3: The desert
- 1. Desert weather (p. 28)
- 2. Desert animals (p. 30)
- 3. Desert plants (p. 32)
- 4. Friendship (p. 34)
- 5. A Mexican folk tale (p. 36)
- 6. Quiz (p. 38)
- My global progress (p. 39)
Why it helps: Desert weather, animals and plants provide three short information-text lessons, then friendship and a Mexican folk tale move to fiction, so the child practises both kinds of reading.
Unit 4: Look again
- 1. Optical illusions (p. 40)
- 2. That’s impossible! (p. 42)
- 3. Very strange! (p. 44)
- 4. Hidden pictures (p. 46)
- 5. Animal camouflage (p. 48)
- 6. Quiz (p. 50)
- My global progress (p. 51)
Why it helps: Illusions and hidden pictures keep the child curious, and the vocabulary of description (strange, impossible, hidden) gets repeated naturally.
Unit 5: Inventors and inventions
- 1. Young inventors (p. 52)
- 2. A history of inventions (p. 54)
- 3. Problems and solutions (p. 56)
- 4. Carrying things (p. 58)
- 5. If I built a house (p. 60)
- 6. Quiz (p. 62)
- My global progress (p. 63)
Why it helps: A strong creative unit: the child imagines a house of their own and describes it, while ‘Problems and solutions’ teaches the cause-and-effect structure used in many exam passages.
Unit 6: Dinosaurs
- 1. The history of dinosaurs (p. 64)
- 2. Dinosaur Q & A (p. 66)
- 3. Describing dinosaurs (p. 68)
- 4. Dinosaur discoveries (p. 70)
- 5. Baby dinosaurs (p. 72)
- 6. Quiz (p. 74)
- My global progress (p. 75)
Why it helps: Five dinosaur lessons give plenty of practice with comparisons and relative clauses, in a topic children enjoy.
Unit 7: Puzzles and codes
- 1. Bugs and flowers (p. 76)
- 2. Secret messages (p. 78)
- 3. Solving problems (p. 80)
- 4. Have you ever…? (p. 82)
- 5. A Nasreddin story (p. 84)
- 6. Quiz (p. 86)
- My global progress (p. 87)
Why it helps: The Nasreddin story is a favourite from the Muslim world, a humorous tale with a lesson, and the present perfect appears in ‘Have you ever…?’
Unit 8: Our amazing body
- 1. Parts of the body (p. 88)
- 2. Healthy and strong (p. 90)
- 3. I don’t feel well! (p. 92)
- 4. What are you doing next week? (p. 94)
- 5. Amazing facts (p. 96)
- 6. Quiz (p. 98)
- My global progress (p. 99)
Why it helps: ‘I don’t feel well!’ teaches children to say what is wrong, and ‘What are you doing next week?’ teaches the present continuous for plans.
Unit 9: Big and little
- 1. Which size is best? (p. 100)
- 2. All kinds of robots (p. 102)
- 3. As big as the sun (p. 104)

- 5. A tale of big and small (p. 108)
- 6. Quiz (p. 110)
- My global progress (p. 111)
Why it helps: Superlatives (tallest, longest, heaviest) are the closing grammar of the year, and the book ends with a tale of big and small.

- Why: daily writing and reading practice.
- When: alongside the Learner’s Book.
- Whom: Class 3 students.
