  • A.Acquiring skills to carry out hands-on activities independently
  • B.Preparing students for studying science at the middle level
  • C.Developing in-depth understanding of the basic concepts of the subject
  • D.Helping learners link classroom learning to life outside the school

Answer: D

A major objective is helping learners link classroom learning to life outside the school.

The NCF 2005 and the NCERT EVS syllabus for classes III to V aim to connect children's learning with their own surroundings and experiences. EVS is meant to help children observe, explore and make sense of the natural, social and cultural environment around them, rather than learn disconnected facts.

Preparing for science at the middle stage and developing in-depth understanding of subject concepts belong to later stages, where science and social science are taught as separate subjects. Hands-on skills are a means to the objective, not the objective itself.
