Class 3 Evs - ANDHRA-PRADESH
Getting to Know Plants
In the Class 3 EVS chapter 'Getting to Know Plants', young learners in Andhra Pradesh explore the wonderful green world around them. Students discover different types of plants such as herbs, shrubs, trees, climbers, and creepers based on their size and shape. The chapter explains the main parts of a plant—roots, stem, leaves, flowers, and fruits—and the special job each part does to help the plant grow. Understanding these concepts builds a strong foundation for future science exams under the BSEAP curriculum, teaching children to appreciate nature and the importance of plants in our daily lives.
