Discussion
Mohan is a class V teacher of Environmental Studies. He writes the following activity on the blackboard in his class. "Find out about the availability of water at the time of your parents and grandparents and compare it with the current situation." For the above activity, which of the following strategies would be most appropriate ?
Answer: B
The most appropriate strategy is a Project.
The task asks children to find out how much water was available in their parents' and grandparents' time, collect this information over some days, and compare it with today. That is an extended, open-ended inquiry with several steps: planning, gathering information from family members, recording, comparing and drawing conclusions. Such multi-step investigations are what EVS projects are for.
Talking to elders, an interview, is one of the methods the children would use within the project, but on its own it does not cover the comparison and conclusion. Role play and classroom discussion do not involve collecting the information at all.
