Abstract

A study entitled ‘A Study of Students’ Conceptual Understanding about the Content of EVS Subject at Primary Level’ has been conducted on students of schools of experimental and control groups to promote the thinking skills such as critical thinking, analytical thinking, reflective thinking, integrative thinking and creative thinking of students at primary level. Qualitative & quantitative analysis of the data shows performance of students of experimental group is better as compared to control group in EVS subjects. It is envisaged that teaching thinking skills by infusing it across curricular areas may be made integral part of teaching learning process in today’s scenario to help students in becoming independent thinker and life-long learner. Present strategies and practices of designing lesson plans can be modified so as to integrate various components of thinking skills leading to make thinking classrooms a reality.
