IV. Procedure

Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

Good morning class Good morning ma’am

Let us stand for our prayer. In the name of the father and of the son and
of the holy spirit amen.

begin our class today. Amen

Good Morning once again class! Good morning ma’am!

Please take your set. (Pupils are seated)

Please say present when your name is called. (Pupils raise their hand and say present)
(checking of attendance)

How are you class? We’re doing great ma’am

MOTIVATION

Class, what do you see/observe around our Tables and chairs ma’am
room?

Yes, you are correct. What else do you see? Notebook and pencil ma’am
Children, you must know that there a lot of
things that you can see inside this room and
especially outside.

I will be flashing pictures of objects through

this Flash Cards. All you have to do is watch
clearly and identify the names of each object.

-balls

-juice

-water

-Balloon

-Bag

-coffee

Good job children. I have here a song entitled

“matter”. Let us watch the video.

Did you love it?

Yes ma’am
The teacher will show to the pupils three real
objects.

wallet, bottled water and balloon ma’am

Very good! What is the shape of the wallet?

Rectangle
Correct! Can you touch it?
Yes ma’am
Next, what can you say about the water in
the bottle? Do the water and the bottle have
the same shape? Yes!

Good. Lastly, what can you say about

the balloon?
It is colorful teacher.
That was a good observation. What is inside
the balloon?
There is air inside the balloon.
Very good. We call all those things as matter.
Everybody says “matter” MATTER

When we say “matter” It is anything that

occupies space and has weight/mass. “Matter” it is anything that occupies space
(Repeat after me) and has weight/mass.

All the things around us are a matter.

Even there that we inhale and exhale is also a
matter. What do we call the things around us?
Matter
Children, there are three phases of matter.
These are solid, liquid and gas.

The first one is solid. Solids have definite

shapes that occupy definite spaces. Solids
can be held and seen. (Teacher holding the
wallet presented a while ago.) Please come in
front and touch the wallet. Describe what you Smooth ma’am
feel.

What is its shape?

Rectangular
Very good Steven. Now, can you please get a
solid object inside your bag? Come here in
front and show it to your classmates. Teacher, this is a notebook

What is the shape of the notebook?

Rectangle ma’am
Is it soft or hard?
Hard
Is it heavy or light?
Light Ma’am
Is it a solid?
Solid
Children. Let us give him/her a “clap. So,
solids have definite shape. It can be held
and seen. Such as … Pupils will repeat the meaning of solid

Now, the second phase of matter is Liquid.

Ask a pupil to show his/her water jug to the
class.

I have here an empty glass. Will you fill the

glass with the liquid from the jug? (Ask The pupil will tell her/his classmate what the
the pupils to describe the shapes of water jug contains.
being poured.) What happened to the water
inside glass? Does it take the shape of
the glass?

It only shows that liquid takes the shape of

the container? Yes

(Teacher holding the bottled water

and balloon) From these two remaining
objects, which do you think is liquid? The bottled water ma’am

Show the last remaining object.) What am I

holding? Balloon

What is inside the balloon?

Air ma’am
Very good. This inflated balloon is filled with
air and air is an example of a gas. Can you
see the air?
No
Air cannot be seen because it is colorless.
But it can be felt. Air is a matter in
a gas/gaseous state. There are also gases
that can be seen such smoke and clouds.
(Pictures of smoke and clouds to be
presented.)

(The teacher will ask a pupil to deflate

a balloon and feel the air coming out from
it.)Does the shape of the balloon changed? Yes ma’am

So, Gas takes the shape of its container;

therefore, it does not have a definite shape.

Let us have more examples so that you can

really differentiate and identify the states of
matter. You are going to have a group
activity.
(The teacher will explain the group activity.)

SOLID LIQUID GAS

The pupils will arrange the pictures and place

it under its proper column: solid, liquid or gas.

.
Application

Let us have another exercise. Connect

column A with column B.

A B
SOLID

LIQUID

GAS
Who wants to answer the first one?

Which one is solid?

Very good! Can you touch the table? Table ma’am

Your answer is correct. How about the next

one. Which one is the liquid?

The smoke or the juice?

Juice ma’am
Correct. Does the juice takes the shape
of the glass? Yes ma’am
Do the liquids take the shape of its
container? Yes ma’am

Very good. How about the last one?

Which one is a gas? Is it the smoke?
Yes
Very good. You were all able to identify the
states of matter.

GENERALIZATION

Again, what do we call the things around us?

Matter
Good. What are the three states of matter?

What is the state of matter that has definite Solid, Liquid, Gas
size, shape and weight?
Solid
Great! What about the state of matter that
takes the shape of their container and can
also flow and it can be poured?
Liquid
Lastly, what is the state of matter that usually
cannot be seen, spreads out easily and also Gas ma’am
takes the shape of its container?

Very good. Let’s give everyone a fireworks

Clap. The pupils will do the fireworks clap.

EVALUATION

Write S if it is solid, L if it is liquid or G if it is

gas. Write your answers inside the box beside
each picture.
