Option 1 : Environmental Studies (EVS) in Classes III to V as a subject integrates the concepts and issues of science, social science and environment education.

As stated by the National Curriculum Framework (2005), “Environmental studies for primary class should be a subject, which combines and circumscribes the concepts and theories from science, social science, and environment”.

The NPE 1986 and the subsequent educational policies (NCFSE, 2000, NCF
2005) have given environmental education an explicit place in school education.
Environmental Education (EE) is introduced at the elementary level as Environmental Studies (EVS). EVS for classes III to V deals with the
study of our environment (physical, biological, and socio-cultural) with an
emphasis on its preservation and conservation (NCF 2005).
Environmental consciousness should inform teaching in schools and colleges.
This aspect will be integrated into the entire educational process”.
EVS, at the primary stage, is an integrated subject area that draws upon insights from sciences (physical, chemical, and biological), social studies (history, geography, political science, sociology, etc), and environmental education (protection and conservation). It is aimed at developing in children a holistic or integrated perspective of the environment where he/she lives in.

Hence by looking at perspectives given by NCF, NPE, and other important policies of education, it can be concluded that Environmental Studies (EVS) in Classes III to V as a subject integrates the concepts and issues of science, social science, and environmental education.
