Importance of key concepts and ideas
Scientific vocabulary are used in answers to explain
scientific concepts better, with lesser room for errors.
The current testing of Science is on scientific concepts
and their application in different situations.
There is a need to relate how an answer relates to a
concept or how the concept is applied.

Strategies to help in recalling
Mnemonics
Is a learning technique that aids memory. To
improve long term memory, mnemonic
systems are used to make recall easier as it
helps us to organise, retain and remember
information.
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Strategies to help in recalling
Steps to create Mnemonics
1.Take the information that you need to remember and choose
one word out of each of the phrases that is meaningful.
2.Choose the first letter from each of these words.
3.Make a word (acronym) or sentence from it or a combination
from it.
4.The sentence should be made easy to remember by making it
humorous.

Question (4)
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
(a) Ali inverted a clear plastic cup and push it down completely into the tubof water as shown below. Did the water level in the cup rise? Why?
Concept :
Air occupies space. Water cannot be compressed (due to its definite volume)
(b) While the inverted plastic cup is still in the water, pierce a hole at thebase of the cup with a thumbtack. Explain why the water level in the cupstarts to rise.
Answer (4a)
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Topic : Diversity
Concept : Air occupies space. Water cannot be compressed (due to itsdefinite volume).
Observe (O) : decide the observation – The water level did not rise inthe cup.
Interpret (I) : Air occupies space in the cup.
Conclusion (C) : Water therefore cannot enter as air occupies the spacein the cup.
Pupil A Pupil B
Ans :No. Air occupies space.
Ans :No. The air in the cup occupies the space andprevents water from entering the cup.
ORYes, the water level rises slightly in the cup asair can be compressed. The air in the cupoccupies the space and prevents water fromentering the cup.
Answer (4b)
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Topic : Diversity
Concept : Air occupies space. Water cannot be compressed (due to itsdefinite volume).
Observe (O) : The water level in the cup starts to rise when a hole isbeing pierced at the base of the cup.

Question (10) – Variable
Tom wanted to check whether the thickness of Material B affects how many paper clips a magnet can attract.
What is the variable that he must change? What are the variables that he must keep the same?
Thickness of material BHeight Z
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Independent variable is the variable tested (Only ONE variable is changed for an experiment). It is the difference between experimental and control set-ups.
Controlled variables are all other variables kept constant for the experiment that would affect the results.
Dependent variable are the observations and measurements to be taken for an experiment.
Variables
58School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Usually, the variable that he wants to test out (and therefore, the only one that he must change) is found in the question stem.
The experiment is trying to find how a variable changes the results of the experiment. Therefore, we must keep all other variables the same to ensure a fair test.

Explain questions are among the hardest questions to get correct. This is because the student needs to provide appropriate scientific reasoning and concepts to explain a phenomenon.
Using the OIC method, we can explain a given phenomenon, provided that we have sound scientific reasoning.
Explain
65School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
O – Observation (what is seen or predicted to happen / what needs to be done to a particular experimental set-up to achieve its objective. )
I – Interpretation (Tying in of concepts and how it relates to phenomenon)
C – Conclusion (Explaining or predicting what will happen)
Explain - OIC
66School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Answer (11) – Explain
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Explain how the glasses are able to separate when she added the ice into the cup?O – For the cup to be separate, Glass B needs to contract. I – Since the Glass B is hotter than the ice, Glass B would lose
heat to the ice and the glass would contract. C – Therefore, the glasses could be separated as Glass B contracts
and becomes smaller.

Importance of key concepts and words• Key words are scientific words used in science that have specific
meanings, different from daily usage.
• Key concepts are the main scientific ideas that explains why/howsomething occurs.
• Key words are used in answers to explain scientific conceptsbetter, with lesser room for errors.
• The current testing of science is on scientific concepts and theirapplication in different situations.
• There is a need to relate how an answer relates to a concept orhow the concept is applied.

Example 1
Mr Lim switched on the lamp in the room and saw the book on the table.
Explain why Mr Lim is able to see the book on the table.
He switched on the lamp.
There is light in the room.
Key concept: Reflection of light
The light from the lamp travelled to the book and is reflected into Mr Lim’s eyes.

Example 2Siva poured the water at room temperature into a cup and added ice cubes to cool it.
She observed that the temperature of the water dropped to 10oC before increasing again. Why do you think it is so?
The ice is cold.
All the ice melt. There is no more ice after that.
There are only 4 ice cubes.
The water take the coldness from the ice. (MISCONCEPTION)
Key concept: Heat transfer
The water lost heat to the ice cubes, so its temperature dropped to 10oC. After the water was cooled, it became cooler than the surrounding, so it gained heat from the surroundings and its temperature increased.
Generic statements
School of Excellence, Individuals of Character
Example 3Sam used a bar magnet to test whether Material A is a magnet.
What must we observe to show that Material A is a magnet? Why?Material A is attracted to the magnet. So, A is a magnet. The magnet moves away from the material. Test for magnets is attraction. (MISCONCEPTION)Key concept: Repulsion as test for magnets. Material A is repelled by the magnet. Only magnets can repel each other.
