PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.228 | “Wildfire 80% Contained” — Does That Mean 80% of the Fire Is Out?
A Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to wildfire containment percentages: learn why 80% contained refers to containment around the fire perimeter, not to 80% of the fire being extinguished.

PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.227 | “L70 = 50,000 h” — Does the LED Suddenly Die at Hour 50,000?
A Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to LED L70 claims: learn why L70 describes a lumen-maintenance threshold under defined evidence conditions, not a timer that makes an LED suddenly fail at a stated hour.

PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.226 | “IP68” — Does That Mean the Device Is Waterproof in Any Situation?
A Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to IP68 claims: learn how to read an ingress-protection code as evidence from defined test conditions, not as a universal promise that a device is waterproof in every situation.

PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.225 | “High Tide = 1.8 m” — Is the Sea 1.8 m Deep?
A Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to tide-height claims: learn why tide height is measured from a stated reference datum, not total water depth, and why prediction can differ from observation.

PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.224 | “Tensile Strength = 500 MPa” — Can Any Object Made From It Hold the Same Load?
A Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to tensile-strength claims: learn why MPa describes stress under a defined test, not one fixed load every object can carry.

PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.223 | “Suitable Habitat” on the Map — Is the Species Actually Present Everywhere It Is Coloured?
A Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to habitat-suitability maps: learn why coloured suitable habitat is modelled potential, not proof a species occupies every mapped place.
