Standard
Performance The learners should be able to prepare beneficial and useful mixtures such as drinks, food, and herbal
Standard medicines.
Week 1-3
(Note: Science is
taught five times a
week (ELEM) in this Describe the appearance and uses of homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures
case since the MELC
is good for 2 weeks it (PAKILAGAY CODE FROM MELCs) ito
means that this MELC
should be taught in 10
days)
