The research employed a qualitative approach, involving observation, interviews, and pre- and post-learning assessments to measure changes in understanding and attitude. Findings indicated a significant improvement in both the children’s comprehension of photosynthesis and their awareness of environmental issues. This suggests that targeted educational interventions can effectively bridge the gap between scientific knowledge and environmental consciousness among young learners in under-resourced communities.
