INTRODUCTION
In many counties of the world, the primary school
curriculum bears little relation to that of fifty or so ago.
Then the subjects were reading, writing and arithmetic.
Now the curriculum is achieved much more as a whole.
The primary school curriculum has to a considerable
extent become integrated and a large number of good
primary school teachers posses a broad background,
which enables them to guide their pupils learning on a
variety of topics as often based as the surroundings of the
school.
However, secondary school curriculum generally
consists of a number of separate subjects having little or
no coordination between them. This may largely be due to
the training examination system which a strongly subject
bounded. An attempt has been made in recent years to
bring about an integrated curriculum which has helped to
bring various science subjects closer but no effort has
been made to consider other areas such as languages,
mathematics and social sciences.
The major aim of education is the unification of
knowledge erasing in different branches of learning to

achieve such unification a conscious. It is only by such a

joint venture that we will be able to achieve the goal of
unification of knowledge and bridge the gap that separates
them.

Correlation of science with other subjects
It is possible to correlate teaching of science with the
study of almost any other subject. It can be correlated
easily with mathematics.
a. Correlation with mathematics
Mathematics is considered as the mother of all sciences.
Knowledge of mathematics is essential for
understanding a topic in science. The solution of
practical problems physical measurements, graphs of
temperature, rainfall and pressure, laws of reflection
etc, all could be understand only with the help of
knowledge of mathematics.
b. Correlation between science and Geography
The teaching of science can be easily correlate with
geography. There a number of topics which are
common to science and geography? For example, the

study of rock and soil, study of plant and animal life.

Etc. physical Geography requires san elementary
knowledge of science for its foundation.
c. Correlation between science and Art
There is a close relationship between the study of
science and study of art. In biology a student is
required to draw a large number of diagrams which
he cannot draw in the absence of a good deal of
practice in art lessons. Age numbers of drawings are
also found in physics and chemistry and for these
also some practice din art of marking drawings is
essential.
d. Correlation between science and Music
In science a student gets the knowledge of resonance,
reverberations, vibrating systems in strings and air
columns musical scales etc. Which is quite useful to
him to undergo the study of music. In music, he
comes across various types of instruments and
equipments which are base on one or the other
principles of sciences.
e. Correlation between science and social studies

There is a loft of correlation between science and

social studies, knowldghe of science produces a
great impact on our life style, way of thinking,
our behavior etc. a great change occurs in our
outlook because of the influence of scientific
occurs in our outlook because of the influence of
scientific knowledge. Science has revolutionized
the civilization.

Conclusion

For an effective learning full advantage must be taken

of various correlations and application of chemistry and
physics. Various inventions of chemistry and physics
have contributed a lot to the social and physical
advancement of our society. Chemistry and Physics has
contributed lot to development of some other subjects.
Correlation gives more meanings to our learning process.
It is very essential thing in class room. Through this,
better achievements are gained. Different type of
correlation makes learning easy and interesting. This
study gives the evidence that, science correlated with our
subjects in all type of meaning.
