The study sought to improve JHS1 girls’ performance and attitudes towards water holding capacity of different types of soils concept using activity method. An action research was the design used for the study. A total sample size of 20 JHS 1 girls; with an average age of 12 years was used for the study. A purposive sampling procedure of the non-probability sampling technique was used to select the girls for the study. Tests and interview were the 2 instruments used for the study. Data were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods. Statistical package for social science (SPSS) version 17.0 for window was used for data analysis and Microsoft excel program was used to present the data pictorially into tables and bar-chart. It was revealed that girls’ performance in water holding capacity of different types of soils concept had improved greatly after they have been exposed to the activity method intervention strategy. It was also observed that girls’ negative attitudes towards the concept under study had changed positively after the implementation of the activity method intervention. It was recommended that stakeholders in science education and science teachers should use innovative and child-centered teaching strategies such as activity method intervention to help improve Basic school girls’ performance and attitudes towards science in schools.
