teaching-notes — Civic Education (Constitution)

Topic: Constitution Subtopic: Types and Structure of the Constitution A constitution is the supreme (highest) law of a nation. It is a legal document that outlines how a country should be governed, defines the structure and functions of government branches, and protects the rights and freedoms of citizens. Because it is the supreme law, any other law made by parliament that contradicts the constitution is null and void (invalid). Every citizen, including the President, must respect and follow th...

teaching-notes — Chemistry (CHEMICAL REACTIONS)

Topic: CHEMICAL REACTIONS Subtopic: Rates of chemical reactions AS SPEED OF A CHEMICAL REACTION In chemistry, different reactions take place at different speeds. Some reactions, like the rusting of iron, are very slow and take weeks or months. Other reactions, like the explosion of fireworks or the neutralization of an acid by an alkali, happen in a fraction of a second. The speed at which a chemical reaction takes place is called the rate of reaction . Definition of Rate of Reaction The rate of...

teaching-notes — Physics (THERMAL PHYSICS)

Topic: THERMAL PHYSICS Subtopic: Expansion of Solids, Liquids and Gases QUALITATIVELY THE THERMAL EXPANSION OF SOLIDS, LIQUIDS AND GASES Thermal expansion is the increase in the size of a substance when its temperature is raised. When a substance is heated, its particles gain kinetic energy and move faster. In solids, the particles vibrate more violently about their fixed positions, pushing each other slightly further apart. In liquids and gases, the particles move faster and slide or fly apart,...

teaching-notes — English (2.1.9. CONVERSATIONS)

Topic: 2.1.9. CONVERSATIONS Subtopic: 2.1.9.1. Initiating Conversations MEANING OF INITIATING A CONVERSATION To "initiate" means to start or begin something. Initiating a conversation means being the first person to speak in order to start a talk with another person. In everyday life, we meet different people such as friends, teachers, parents, and community elders. How we start a conversation depends on who we are speaking to and where we are. We must choose our words carefully so that we sound...

teaching-notes — Chemistry (Redox Reactions)

Topic: Redox Reactions Subtopic: Oxidation and Reduction INTRODUCTION TO REDOX REACTIONS In everyday life, we see many chemical changes around us. When an iron nail rusts, when charcoal burns to provide heat, or when we use a dry cell torch battery, a special type of chemical reaction is taking place. These reactions are called redox reactions. The word redox comes from two words: red uction and ox idation. In this topic, we will explore what these terms mean, how to identify them using differen...
