A: How to use the IP lower-secondary Combined Science hub, topic order, and suggested revision cadence across Years 1 and 2.
Integrated Programme Combined Science fuses foundational chemistry, biology, and physics ideas into a single storyline. This hub keeps the sequence tight so you can build measurement habits, master microscopic structures, and connect your calculations to real lab data.
How to use these notes
- Skim the Learning Targets section at the start of every post. Tick off objectives after you redo the worked calculations or labelled diagrams without reference.
- Walk through the Worked Examples in detail. Write down the reasoning steps, units, and safety checks before you peek at the final expression.
- Attempt each Try It Yourself drill immediately after reviewing the worked example. Record your corrections, especially when unit conversions or diagram annotations slip.
- Finish every study session by summarising the topic in your own words and sending yourself a WhatsApp voice note — auditory recall locks in conceptual language.
