This research aims to design and implement an educational programme based on Deep Processing Theory to enhance the acquisition and retention of circular and rotational motion concepts among fifth-grade scientific stream students. A quasi-experimental design was employed (comprising two groups: experimental and control), utilising measurement tools that included a conceptual test (pre-test and post-test) and a retention test administered after one month. The results demonstrated significant differences in favour of the experimental group students in both the post-test and conceptual retention.
