Science education helps a child to understand the world in which they live and to apply scientific principles in their daily life.science education must enable one to lead a worthwhile life by inculcating in him desirable scientific habits, ,interest, attitudes and skills.for this appropriate learning experiences in science must be provided. Learning of chemistry helps one to develop a spirit of inquiry, creativity, objectivity,problem solving and decision making skills. To accomplish this learners must be made to construct their own knowledge and ideas in learning. Concept mapping strategy is a powerful learning tool in the facilitation of meaningful learning.It allows recalling, remembering and effectively managing large blocks of information at a time and also in the utilization of the knowledge in new contexts.They can also enhance student learning by connecting new concepts to concepts the student is already familiar with. Concept mapping has a remarkable impact on student achievement in science classes.In this study Concept Mapping Strategy and Students’ Achievement in Chemistry at Secondary Level the investigator followed a pretest post test single group experimental design.the sample of the study consisted of 35 students of Standard IX of St Mary’s CGHS ,Ernakulam and found that Concept mapping strategy improves student’s achievement in Chemistry,
