    Study Notes

    Science

    • Definition: Systematic study of the natural world through observation and experimentation.
    • Branches:
      • Physical Science: Physics (study of matter and energy), Chemistry (study of substances and reactions).
      • Earth Science: Geology (study of the Earth), Meteorology (study of weather).
      • Life Science: Biology (study of living organisms), Ecology (study of interactions among organisms and their environment).
    • Scientific Method:
      1. Observation
      2. Question
      3. Hypothesis
      4. Experimentation
      5. Analysis
      6. Conclusion
    • Key Concept: Theories and laws, such as the law of gravity and the theory of evolution.

    English

    • Components:
      • Grammar: Structure of sentences (nouns, verbs, adjectives).
      • Vocabulary: Word meanings, synonyms, antonyms.
      • Literature: Genres (fiction, non-fiction, poetry), authors, literary devices (metaphor, symbolism).
      • Writing: Techniques (descriptive, persuasive, narrative), essay structure (introduction, body, conclusion).
    • Reading Comprehension: Understanding context, identifying main ideas, making inferences.
    • Communication Skills: Importance of speaking and listening, effective presentation skills.

    Social Science

    • Definition: Study of human society and social relationships.
    • Disciplines:
      • History: Study of past events and their impact on present.
      • Geography: Study of places and environments.
      • Political Science: Analysis of governance, political activities, and systems.
      • Sociology: Study of social behavior, institutions, and structures.
      • Economics: Study of production, consumption, and distribution of goods and services.
    • Key Concepts: Culture, identity, social change, and globalization.

    Math

    • Branches:
      • Arithmetic: Basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division).
      • Algebra: Study of symbols and rules for manipulating those symbols (equations, functions).
      • Geometry: Study of shapes, sizes, and properties of space.
      • Calculus: Study of change (derivatives, integrals).
    • Key Concepts:
      • Numbers: Integers, rational numbers, real numbers.
      • Functions: Input-output relationships, graphs.
      • Statistics: Collection, analysis, interpretation of data (mean, median, mode).
    • Applications: Used in diverse fields including engineering, economics, and social sciences.

    Science

    • Systematic study of the natural world focusing on observation and experimentation.
    • Branches:
      • Physical Science: Includes Physics (study of matter and energy) and Chemistry (study of substances and their reactions).
      • Earth Science: Comprises Geology (study of Earth's structure and processes) and Meteorology (study of weather patterns and phenomena).
      • Life Science: Encompasses Biology (study of living organisms) and Ecology (study of interactions between organisms and their environments).
    • Scientific Method: A systematic approach involving observation, formulating questions, developing hypotheses, conducting experiments, analyzing results, and drawing conclusions.
    • Key Concept: Theories (e.g., theory of evolution) and laws (e.g., law of gravity) explain natural phenomena.

    English

    • Components:
      • Grammar: Structure of sentences governed by elements such as nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
