Getting to Know Plants
In the Haryana Board (BSEH) Class 3 EVS chapter 'Getting to Know Plants', young students explore the wonderful green world around them. Children learn to identify different types of plants such as herbs, shrubs, trees, climbers, and creepers based on their size and stem type. The chapter also explains the different parts of a plant—like roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits—and their special jobs in keeping the plant alive and growing. Understanding these plant parts and types is very important for Class 3 students, as it builds a strong foundation for future science studies and frequently appears in school exams.
