B. Lesson Proper

Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

1) Motivation

Class, I will give you 4 pics 3 words

activity. Where you identify the given
pictures and arrange the given words to
find out what the pictures all about.

Do you understand? Yes Teacher!

(the pupils will participate)

2) Presentation
Class, look at this, what is this? Paper!
Yes. A piece of paper.
Ok. What will happen if I tear this piece of It will turn into small pieces
paper?
Yes, it will change to what kind of changes Physical changes
occurs?
Why do you think that it is a physical Because the piece of paper turns into
change? small pieces therefore the size will
change.
Very good!
What about if I burn this paper, what have It will turn to ashes
you observe?
Is there any changes? Yes ma’am!
What do you called that change? Chemical change
Why chemical change? The paper turn to ashes therefore there
was a new substance form.
So our topic today is about the changes of
matter.

3) Discussion

Changes in matter
1. Physical change The pupils are listening.
- A change in the substances
appearance without changing its
composition.

Example:
 Freezing
- Changing of liquid to solid.
 Melting
- Changing of solid to liquid.
 Evaporation
- Changing of liquid to gas.
 Condensation
- Changing of gas to liquid.
 Sublimation
- Changing of solid to gas
without passing the liquid
state.
 Physical change includes any
alteration or changes in the shape and
size of a substance.

Example:
 breaking
 cutting
 slicing
 grinding
 crushing

2. Chemical change
-Is a change that forms a new
substance with new properties

Examples:
 burning of paper
 burning of wood
 rusting on iron
 rotting of fruits
 tarnishing of silver

4) Generalization

Can you different what is physical Yes ma’am

change and chemical change?
What is physical change?
How about the chemical change?
Do you understand class?
Any question?
Physical change is a change in the
substances appearance without
changing its composition
Chemical change is a change that forms
a new substance with new properties.
Yes ma’am!
No ma’am!

5) Application

Before we start our activity, I would like

to group you into two (2). The left side will be
the group 1 and the right side will be the group
2.

You will go in front one by one and give

examples on the following changes we tackled.
Group 1 will give an example of physical
change and the group 2 will give an example of
chemical change.

Do you understand? (the pupils may ask or not)
