  • to be taught as a composite area of study in classes I to V
  • building capacities to develop a holistic vision and participate in its protection and management his assertion gains importance as the world is increasingly moving towards protection and conservation of the environment

Key Points

EVS is a Composite Area : EVS at the primary stage is a single study area. It is visualized as a composite study area drawing learning experiences/contents from physical, biological, chemical, social, cultural, and other dimensions of study.

  • The contents are organized around curricular themes like Food, Shelter, Water, Travel, etc. This thematic organization is intended to correlate two or more disciplines of study or school subjects.
  • This helps children to develop an inter-related and connected understanding of the subject studied rather than a fragmented view of it.

Hint

To achieve the above objectives, EVS is organized around three broad principles-

  • Thematic organization of content in EVS helps dissolve the conventional subject boundaries created in the formal education system.
  • It also encourages the learner to realize the linkages between the various subjects.
  • Thematic structuring of the contents in EVS cuts across the boundaries of several disciplines such as social sciences, sciences, languages, history, geography, civics, etc., developing in children an interdisciplinary perspective (contributions of various disciplines) to understanding environment and environmental problems and their solutions because this is related to our lives and lifestyles.
  • EVS, thus, is an interdisciplinary study of how humans interact with their environment – physical, biological, social, and cultural.

Thus, it is concluded that A, B, and C are the correct options.
