The Objective: Able to compare the past curriculum with the present science curriculum.
The Aim: To raise the teaching standard of science and mathematic
Rational: Children today have different attitudes from children in the past, so teacher should change their teaching-learning approach, strategy and methods. Teachers must more confident in using the inquiry approach to make children interested in investigating and understanding the environment.
