LOOKING AROUND ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES [4 marks Question-Answer]

List the names of plants that you have seen in your school, park or near your home. Identify what types of plants they are tree, shrub, herb, grass, climber or creeper.

Choose one plant, preferably a shrub with a thick stem or a tree that you want to make friends with. You can do this by yourself or with a group of your classmates.
Name your plant, just like you might name a pet. Take care of the plant by watering it each day. Also protect it as your friend.
Now observe your plant friend closely. Here are a few things to observe its leaves, flowers and fruits. Are there many, a few or no leaves, flowers and fruits? Record your observations in the table.
