Solution.

CBSE answer: (4)

Answer: (4) B, C and D

  1. EVS is about exploring the surroundings: observing, asking questions and trying things out to find answers.
  2. These are processes that help children build their own understanding.

Trap: 'accumulation of facts' (A) reduces EVS to memorising, which NCF 2005 rejects.
