Science Concepts
Science is the study of the world around us, showing how things work through observation and experiments. It explores everything from tiny atoms to the vast universe. Science has different fields, like studying living things, matter, energy, space, or Earth. These fields work together to explain how nature works, solve problems, and help us learn more about the world. Science also leads to new ideas and inventions that make life better and more interesting.
Science can be broadly divided into these different branches:
1. Physics - Explores forces, energy, motion, and how objects interact.
2. Chemistry - It is the study of substances, their properties, and how they interact and change.
3. Biology - The study of living things, including their structure, functions, and interactions with the environment.
4. Earth Science - Earth Science is the study of the Earth's structure, natural processes, and its place in the universe.
5. Environmental Science - Studies nature and how to protect it.
6. Astronomy - Explores stars, planets, and the universe beyond Earth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Science concepts help children explore and understand the world around them. These include:
Living and Non-Living Things: Discovering plants, animals, and their surroundings.
Forces and Motion: Exploring how things move and work together.
Earth and Space: Exploring the Earth, weather, and the solar system.
Materials and Energy: Studying different materials and how energy is used.
These concepts encourage curiosity and help children make sense of natural and physical phenomena.
Learning Science is crucial because it helps children:
Understand the world: Learn how things work in nature and technology.
Think critically: Analyze situations and solve problems.
Develop curiosity: Ask questions and explore answers through experiments.
Prepare for the Future: Start learning skills for jobs in technology, medicine, engineering, and more.
Science sparks curiosity and helps children explore and understand the world logically.
Our Science and Maths curriculum is taught by IITians to grades 6 to 10. This is a special program run in the name of OCFP (Orchids Career Foundation Programme).
A curriculum to help students in grades 6–10 get ready for competitive exams. This program focuses on math and science, and uses an application-based teaching methodology.
We use the AVK method—Audio, Visual, and Kinesthetics—to teach Science effectively:
Audio: Discussions, lectures, and group activities to explain concepts.
Visual: Videos, diagrams, and animations to bring lessons to life.
Kinesthetics: Hands-on experiments and projects for active learning.
We also make Science exciting with storytelling, fun demonstrations, and real-world examples that engage students.
Yes, practical activities are a key part of Science learning. These include:
Experiments: Observing plant growth or testing materials.
STEM projects: Building models or conducting experiments to solve problems.
Outdoor activities: Exploring ecosystems or identifying weather patterns.
These activities help children understand Science concepts better and see how they apply in real life.
Our English curriculum is aligned with the latest curriculum of various Indian educational boards. Below are some examples of the topics covered according to the grades.
