Preface

It gives me an immense pleasure in presenting this book- Green
Science, Health and Physical Education for class 1. This book
has been written specially to meet the requirements of the
new syllabus introduced by Government of Nepal, Ministry
of Education, Curriculum Development Centre, Sano Thimi,
Bhaktapur, Nepal.

My aim and effort while writing this book is to help students
understand, enjoy and appreciate the fascinating subject of
Science, Health and Physical Education by making the process of
learning enjoyable and stimulating. I have attempted to present
the subject matter covering the entire prescribed syllabus in a
simple language and interesting style with a large number of
illustrative examples to master the fundamental principles of
Science, Health and Physical Education. Each unit of the book
has been carefully planned to make it student-friendly and
present the subject matter in an interesting, understandable and
enjoyable manner. A Structural Programme Learning Approach
(SPLA) has been followed and exhaustive exercises are given
at the end of each unit to test knowledge, understanding and
applications of concepts taught/learnt.

The text is supplemented with weighting distribution, learning
objectives, word power, teaching instructions, sample test
papers and a large number of well-labelled accurate pictures. I
sincerely hope that this book will serve its intended purpose and
be received enthusiastically by both the students and teachers
concerned.

I wish to express my sincere gratitude to Green Books Team for
publishing this book. My hearty thanks go to Focus Computer
for excellent type setting and layout.

I also wish to acknowledge my great indebtedness to many
teachers for their valuable suggestions and advice concerning
the textbook. I am confident that as a result of their suggestions
this book will be more useful than any other textbooks. However,
sympathetic criticisms and constructive suggestions for further
improvement of the book, if any, will be welcomed and with
warm regards incorporated in the subsequent editions.

Different Types of Plants

A variety of plants are found around us. They differ in their
shapes and sizes. Some plants are small and some are big.
Some plants are weak and some are strong. On the basis of
size, plants are divided into three groups. They are as follows:

a. Herbs b. Shrubs c. Trees

a. Herbs
Herbs are very small plants with soft and weak stems. Tomato,
potato, mustard, wheat, rice, garlic, onion, lettuce, marigold
and coriander are examples of herbs.

Tomato Onion Marigold

Wheat Paddy Lettuce

Some herbs creep and crawl on the ground. These plants are
called creepers. Examples: Pumpkin, gourd, watermelon, etc.

20 GREEN Science, Health and Physical Education Book-1

Pumpkin Watermelon Gourd

Some herbs have very weak and long stem. They need support
to climb up. These plants are called climbers. Some examples
of climbers are cucumber, pea, bean and money plant.

Cucumber Pea Money plant

Herbs have soft and weak stem. They live only for a few months.

They are smaller than shrubs. Herbs do not have woody stems.

b. Shrubs Do You Know

Shrubs are small, strong and bushy Thorns are sharp needle-
plants. Examples: rose, tea, coffee. like structures having
pointed ends. They
protect plants.

Rose Tea Coffee

Shrubs have woody stems. They live for many years. They are
smaller than trees. They have many branches. They may have
thorns.

GREEN Science, Health and Physical Education Book-1 21

c. Trees

Trees are big and very strong plants. Examples: mango tree,
neem tree, peepal, banyan, pine.

Mango tree Banyan tree Neem tree

Most trees have strong and woody stems. The main stem of a
tree is called a trunk. A trunk has many branches. Trees live for
many years.

Flowering plants have different parts or organs. The major
parts of a plant are root, stem, leaf, flower and fruit. The entire
plant body can be divided into two main parts. They are:
i. Root system and ii. Shoot system.

Stem

A stem is a hard and woody part of a plant which grows above
the soil. It consists of branches, leaves, flowers and fruits. A
stem transports water from roots to leaves.
