Science Programme

P3 - P6

Our science curriculum is thoughtfully designed to align seamlessly with the latest Ministry of Education (MOE) syllabus, ensuring students are fully prepared for the PSLE. However, we don’t stop at just teaching the syllabus. Created by the founders of Science Heuristics and authors of the renowned Linking Science Concepts (LiSC®) series, our curriculum incorporates proven, innovative methods that not only help students achieve outstanding grades but also inspire a genuine passion for science.

We use two powerful strategies to help students excel in PSLE Science: LiSC (Linking Science Concept) and CER (Claim, Evidence, Reasoning). These proven methods focus on different areas of science learning, giving students the skills needed to succeed.

Why Choose Our Science Programme?

MOE-Aligned Syllabus

Ensures students master essential topics and exam techniques.

Engaging Lessons

Hands-on experiments and interactive discussions make learning exciting.

Conceptual Mastery

Systematic strategies help students approach complex questions confidently.

PSLE Readiness

Emphasis on structured responses and higher-order thinking skills.

Expert Educators

Experienced Science tutors provide clear explanations and personalized guidance.

Real-World Applications

Lessons integrate practical examples to make learning relevant and meaningful.

LiSC® - Linking Science Concepts

Our LiSC® framework helps students connect scientific concepts across different topics, enabling them to understand the bigger picture. The approach follows three simple steps:

Li (Unlocking the Question):

Students learn to analyse questions and identify the key concepts being tested.

S (Sharpening Your Answer):

Students focus on crafting precise, accurate responses using the correct scientific terminology.

C (Putting It Together):

Students combine their knowledge into well-structured, clear answers.

This method helps students connect different topics and see the “big picture” in science.

CER - Claim, Evidence, Reasoning

The CER strategy complements LiSC by enhancing critical thinking and answer-writing skills. It also has three key steps:

Claim:

Students state the main answer to the question clearly.

Evidence:

Students support their claim with relevant data or observations.

Reasoning:

Students explain how the evidence supports the claim, linking it to scientific concepts.

This approach improves open-ended answers while developing problem-solving and logical reasoning skills.

LiSC and CER create a complete learning system that integrates understanding and application. LiSC builds connections between scientific concepts, while CER develops clear and logical expression. Together, they prepare students for exams and empower them to tackle complex problems with confidence.

At Unitimes Academy, our P3 - P6 Science Programme is tailored to build a solid foundation in science, foster critical thinking, and ensure students are fully prepared for PSLE Science. With an emphasis on conceptual understanding and exam readiness, students leave our programme not only ready for their exams but also inspired to continue exploring the world of science.

With a focus on both conceptual understanding and application, our curriculum is tailored to make mathematics accessible, engaging, and relevant.

We adopt a two-pronged approach in teaching mathematics: Concepts & Skills Development and Application & Higher-Order Practice. This ensures that students develop both the foundational knowledge and advanced problem-solving skills required for exam success and beyond.

Reinforcing Key Skills:

Targeted exercises ensure that students gain mastery over essential skills like number operations, algebra, and geometry.

Strengthening Problem-Solving Techniques:

We focus on developing strategies for tackling a wide range of mathematical problems, ensuring students can apply their skills across topics.

Through guided teaching and active participation, students internalize the “how” and “why” of mathematical operations, preparing them for diverse question types.

Application & Higher-Order Practice

Once core concepts are mastered, students are challenged to apply their knowledge through advanced problem-solving tasks that mirror PSLE standards. This segment includes:

Real-World Applications:

We help students understand the relevance of mathematics in daily life, making it more engaging and practical.

Advanced Problem-Solving:

Students are exposed to higher-order questions that require critical thinking, creativity, and multi-step solutions.
