Answer

Explanation

In EVS concepts and issues have not been compartmentalised into science and social science. Thus, the child looks at her/his environment in holistic manner. The major focus area of EVS is learning for the environment, learning about the environment and learning through the environment. Therefore, EVS is theme based rather than compartmentalised into different subjects.
