Science being an integral part of our lives, shapes the world we live in, from the technology to the natural phenomena we observe. Yet, in many classrooms, science is taught in a way that feels distant from reality, making it difficult for students to grasp it in real word relevance. With this purpose, the study aimed to explore how Teaching Practices with Real-Life Content (TPRLC) can make science more meaningful and connected to everyday experiences. This action research explores how incorporating real-world examples into science lessons can improve student’s understanding, engagement, and retention of concepts. The study was conducted in a 7th standard, where conventional lessons were reimagined to include practical applications.

The effectiveness of this approach will be assessed through pre-tests, post-tests, classroom observations, and student and teachers feedback.

The findings have shown the effectiveness of real-world examples in enhancing science education as they help students connect abstract concepts to practical applications, making learning more meaningful and impactful. However, the study also identifies challenges, such as the need for teacher training and resource availability, which must be addressed for wider adoption.
