The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Concept Mapping Strategy for teaching Science to class VII students in terms of achievement, interest in science and reaction. It adopted a Non-equivalent Control Group Design. The intact group as existed in the school were taken for experimentation. One of the group was taught Science Concepts through Concept Mapping Strategy and the other group was taught the same concepts using Traditional Method Strategy. Tool used for study were Achievement test and Interest in Science . A total of 78 students were selected through random sampling. The experimental group received instruction using the Concept Mapping strategy, while the control group was taught the same concepts through traditional teaching methods. achievement and interest in science test were used as tools to measure outcomes. Data analysis was conducted using one-way ANCOVA, with pre-achievement scores treated as a covariate. The adjusted F-value was found to be 5.156, which is statistically significant at the 0.5 level (df = 1/78). These results indicate that the Concept Mapping strategy was significantly more effective than traditional methods in improving students’ achievement in Science Subject.
