Termly Reflections (Term 1)

Term 1 Science Reflections

I came back to Singapore six months before school started in January, and it was a major change for me as I had been studying in an American education system.

Science was perhaps the subject which I found most different and challenging.

In Term 1 the topic we learnt about was "Science as an inquiry". It was actually quite new to me as I was learning mainly about things like the human body systems in my old school.

I soon began to read the notes and practice on my own, and I was able to understand what was taught in class better. I still had a hard time trying to memorize the equipment used in lab experiments, but very soon the test came.

I finished with a score of 34/45, a bare A1, I felt quite happy with myself after knowing about the score as I was unsure of quite a number of questions, however, I think that I could do even better next term.
