Introduction
Science is the study of the natural world through observation, investigation, and experimentation.
It helps us understand how things work—from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies.
Science is everywhere and is an important part of our everyday lives.
Definition of Science
Science is a systematic way of learning about the world around us. It involves asking questions,
making observations, gathering evidence, testing ideas, and drawing conclusions. It includes
different branches like Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Earth Science, and Environmental Science.
Branches of Science
1. Biology – the study of living things (plants, animals, humans)
2. Chemistry – the study of matter and how it changes
3. Physics – the study of motion, energy, and forces
4. Earth Science – the study of the Earth, including rocks, weather, and oceans
5. Environmental Science – the study of the environment and how humans affect it
Scientific Method
Science uses a step-by-step process to solve problems and answer questions:
1. Ask a question
2. Make observations or research
3. Form a hypothesis (guess)
4. Test with an experiment
5. Analyze the results
6. Draw a conclusion
7. Communicate findings
Importance of Science
Explains natural events – like weather, diseases, or earthquakes
Improves technology – such as medicine, transportation, and communication
Helps solve problems – like climate change, pollution, and energy crisis
Promotes critical thinking – asking questions and seeking evidence
Prepares students for STEM careers – in science, technology, engineering, and math
Science in Education
In the Philippine K to 12 curriculum, Science is taught from Grade 3 to Grade 12. It helps
learners:
Develop inquiry skills
Understand scientific concepts
Apply knowledge to real-life situations
Become responsible citizens and problem-solvers
Conclusion
Science helps us understand life, nature, and the universe. It gives us the tools to explore,
question, and discover. As future Science teachers, our role is to inspire curiosity and develop the
next generation of thinkers, inventors, and explorers.
