The Integration of English with other subjects:

Introduction:

Throughout learning English, many speakers tend to focus strictly on the vocabulary and grammar portion of it, and stray off from combining skills with other subjects. For example, try to use new vocabulary and describe a science experiment, or use different phrases to explain a math concept. Overall, learning English is helpful for everyone, but learners can take their skills to the next level by connecting concepts with other subjects.

English + Math:

At first glance, English and math have minimal correlation and at times have no similarities at all. However, that is simply a misconception. English facilitates the translation of math in a more accessible way for everyone, and mastering communication enables math to be understood more easily. Start slow, and use basic phrases and discrete words to express your point,

DOs

• “Move the X to the left side, and move the Y to the right side.”

• “Subtract 32 from both sides

DONTs

• “Change that and put it over there.”

• “Remove this 32”

Simple words such as remove can demonstrate a completely different meaning, and can seriously impact a learner's ability to improve their knowledge. Speak concisely, and talk about math with enthusiasm rather than sluggishly.

In addition, math can be used to help students learn English, not just the other way around. Try to implement math strategies into your learning rather than creating new techniques. Because of the vast information being thrown at the brain, using existing knowledge and methods allows students to recollect information more effectively and can reduce the time spent on concepts. For example,

• Use numbers as place holders for words

• Relate numbers and formulas to English phrases

• Convert Math Formulas to English

The next time you learn a new word, try to create a visual representation in your head, and think of a number that is drilled into your brain. An example would be seven, seven could represent the number of times you replayed the word out loud. Try using conversation formulas such as inches, feet, and meters, and relate them to stimuli. 

• 12 inches to feet, rewrite as 12 feet is a dozen people

• 3 feet is a yard, rewrite as 3 small strings create a humongous string.

• 1000 millimeters is a meter may relate to a hyperbole(an exaggeration)

Using simple measures and techniques such as this can build recollection in the mind, and you can translate math knowledge into English to make your journey easier

English + Science:

Some people are not as gifted as others in math. Concepts are hard to grasp, and it can be tedious to apply knowledge. However, science is different for everyone. Everyone has their own interests and curiosities, which allows people to create their own, unique combinations. Science sparks creativity and questions. The next time you learn a grammar rule, question it! Understand why the rule exists, and connect the dots to other concepts. Science is the application of many fields; if thought carefully, science applies to everything, including English.

DOs

• “Why do we use punctuation there, but not here?”

• “How does 'Embark' relate to 'Venture’

• “What would the opposing view respond to my claim?”

DONTs

• Copying and pasting the teacher’s work

• Focusing on your ideas and not finding patterns between relations

• Daydreaming 

Enthusiasm is the quintessential skill in learning anything. It is more than a personality trait; people can actually learn and develop their curiosity through constant questioning. Every great inventor, polymath, philosopher, and even your parents achieved success through questioning and applying knowledge to different situations. You do not need to be a genius; just apply what you have learned in the past.

At first, it may seem like science and English are two different subjects, but pondering long enough will result in the realization that similarities do exist between the two. When hypothesizing, you use formal English and proper phrases to express your thoughts. Making a claim based on findings tests your argumentative and information skills as a writer. The most important thing is to be curious.

Miscellaneous:

English is applicable in nearly every situation. Social studies requires it, chemistry requires it, physics, economics, and even the arts. English is the universal language for all subjects. Learning can make you compatible with others and enhance your skills in several fields. Key tips include.

• Be curious

• Connect Dots

• Look for common patterns

• Use prior knowledge

It seems repetitive, but it will positively impact your English journey

Conclusion:

In summary, English is a universal language that can be applied in every field. At first glance, it seems like English is fixed, and strategies for it are limited and restrained. However, the world is like a puzzle, and you need to figure out ways to build the puzzle from scratch. The puzzle is already halfway finished; you need to use the existing pieces to learn new information.
