Course description

  1. identifies materials and organisms, such as, plant fibres, flowers, on the basis of observable features i.e., appearance, texture, function, aroma, etc.
  2. differentiates materials and organisms, such as, fibre and yarn; tap and fibrous roots; electrical conductors and insulators; on the basis of their properties, structure and functions
  3. classifies materials, organisms and processes based on observable properties, e.g., materials as soluble, insoluble, transparent, translucent and opaque; changes as can be reversed and cannot be reversed; plants as herbs, shrubs, trees, creeper, climbers; components of habitat as biotic and abiotic; motion as rectilinear, circular, periodic
  4. conducts simple investigations to seek answers to queries, e.g., What are the food nutrients present in animal fodder? Can all physical changes be reversed? Does a freely suspended magnet align in a particular direction?
  5. elates processes and phenomenon with causes, e.g., deficiency diseases with diet; adaptations of animals and plants with their habitats; quality of air with pollutants, etc.
  6. explains processes and phenomenon, e.g., processing of plant fibres; movements in plants and animals; formation of shadows; reflection of light from plane mirror; variations in composition of air; preparation of vermicompost, etc.
  7. measures physical quantities and expresses in SI units, e.g., length
  8. draws labelled diagrams / flow charts of organisms and processes, e.g., parts of flowers; joints; filtration; water cycle, etc.
  9. constructs models using materials from surroundings and explains their working, e.g., pinhole camera, periscope, electric torch, etc.
  10. applies learning of scientific concepts in day - to - day life. Example: selecting food items for a balanced diet; separating materials; selecting season appropriate fabrics; using compass needle for finding directions; suggesting ways to cope with heavy rain/ drought, etc.
  11. makes efforts to protect environment, e.g., minimising wastage of food, water, electricity and generation of waste; spreading awareness to adopt rain water harvesting; care for plants, etc.
  12. exhibits creativity in designing, planning, making use of available resources, etc.
  13. exhibits values of honesty, objectivity, cooperation, freedom from fear and prejudices.
