Abstract

The study focused on how the environment influences primary school children's attitudes, thoughts, and behaviors. It looked at factors like family, school, and community settings, as well as physical characteristics such as climate. The study aimed to understand students' environmental attitudes and determine the impact on their feelings and behaviors, while also promoting knowledge and values for environmental protection. The study was descriptive, targeting primary school students in Lodhran district. A sample of 325 students was selected using random sampling. A 35-item questionnaire was used, and data was collected through self-effort. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire was ensured through pilot testing and experts’ opinions. The data was analyzed using frequency, mean score, percentage, and standard deviation. Overall, the study concluded that creating welcoming, supportive, and interactive environment in various settings was essential for fostering positive attitudes and self-confidence in primary school children. This study recommends that school heads and teachers should create a conducive learning environment to promote students' behaviors essential for their future lives.
