• Experiments that are fully or partially guided to provide opportunities for students to acquire and develop science process skills, manipulative skills and creativity in the learning of science.  They also seek to inculcate in students scientific attitudes.
• Activities allow students to acquire and develop the skills necessary in the learning of science.
• Safety Measure provide safety tips and precautions for students to act on to ensure their own safety as well as the safety of others during science lessons.
