According to the National Curriculum Framework (NCF), environmental studies for classes I and II are taught through language and mathematics. There is no separate syllabus or textbook for environmental studies in these classes. The main reason for this is-
1
Reducing additional course load on children
2
Students of class I and II are not able to take the course of environmental studies
3
Environmental Studies learning is only for students above class III
4
Providing education of environment studies indirectly to the children by making connections with the surrounding environment.
