Most students have trouble mastering Part B UPSR Science paper. Thereby, the researcher used appropriate strategies to improve student proficiency in answering the questions in Part B of the Science paper.

The instruments used in this study included an analysis of documents, questionnaires and pre-test and post-test results. The data are collected through questionnaires and result of the pre-test and post-test were reported in descriptive analysis form of frequency tables, percentages and graphs. The results showed that there was an increase in post-test result after the strategy used to help students master Section B of the UPSR Science paper. This clearly proves that the strategies have been successful in helping poor students in answering Science questions in Section B. At the end of the study, some suggestions for future research are presented, for example using a wider range of sample, extended to students in years 4 and 5 and the research can be conducted in a longer period. |
