Science is the most important school subject.

“Is the Earth round?” “Why do we need air?” People from the ages have asked
endless questions and nearly all have been answered by science. Science is an
important school subject, essential for school students to take. It is in fact the most
important of all subjects as it allows students to question their environment in order
to discover new things. Also, science, as the most important subject, incorporates
the two core subjects Mathematics and English in its curriculum. Not to mention
that it develops social and life skills.

Firstly, science is the most important school subject because it allows students to
question their environment in order to discover new things. In science classes
students are encouraged to question why things work and how they work, often
carrying out experiments to find out first hand. When students come across new
information they cannot but ask and question how a particular thing works.
Carefully using chemicals and observing reactions, students discover for themselves
the effects of different scientific ideas. After experimenting students often set up
their own experiments to discover their “what if’s…” putting into action their ideas
and questions.

Secondly, science itself contains many aspects of the Maths and the English
curriculum. The three main strands of science are a prime example of this. Biology
contains large vocabulary lists and terms tat a student must have a good
understanding of. They use these to answer comprehensive questions just like in
English. Physics takes part the mathematical side of Science, incorporating
numbers, calculating rates of reactions, time, motion and speed. Chemistry
develops logical thinking, as students need to grasp the chemistry ideas and work
out reactions to obtain a product. Therefore, the three science strands ultimately
cover the other two core subjects; Maths and English.

Although Science may seem like a lot of tedious work, surprisingly it also develops
social skills. In a Science laboratory students are required to work together under
the same environment to carry out experiments; through these experiments
students build teamwork skills through practical work. The ‘hands-on’ work keeps
the fun in science, as students are not just pouring over books. Because science
experiments could be dangerous, if not carried out properly, students naturally
become more careful and look out for on another. This develops life skills. Learning
to be observant of the environment around them develops life skills essential in the
‘real world’ outside of school.

In ending, it can be concluded firmly that Science is the most important school
subject. It allows students to question their environment and discover new tings. It
contains many aspects of Math and English in its curriculum and it is fund, involving
social and life skills through practical work. Now then, let me ask you what more
could you want from a subject?
