ELICIT
 What is matter?
Everything around us is matter- the soil, water, and air.
Matter has different properties that make them different from
one another. Some types of matter have properties that make
them good materials for producing useful products. Other
types have properties that make them harmful. Sometimes,
matter also undergoes changes that affect their properties.
 SHOWING OF PICTURES
 What are these materials?
 Can you describe the materials?
 What are the properties of these materials?
ENGAGE
  Showing video clip

Useful and Harmful Materials

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOYzjHHl6q8

 In your own idea, what was the video all about?

 Showing of pictures and let them identify whether the materials

shown is USEFUL or HARMFUL

of the new lesson

Asking questions:
 What are these materials?
 What is the purpose of this material?
 Is this material useful or harmful? Why?

F. Discussing new concepts and EXPLORE

practicing new skills #1

H. Discussing new concepts and OUTDOOR ACTIVITY: BRING ME

practicing new skills # 2  Let the learners go outside of the classroom and get any materials
that they can found. Let them identify if it is useful or harmful. (5
mins)

Group Activity
HOUSE RULES:
 Please go to your proper places.
 Talk softly not to disturb other groups.
 All must cooperate with their groups.
 Share your ideas with your group
 Stay focused on task

 The teacher will group the learners into 3 groups

 Each group will be given 5 minutes to do their activity
 The teacher will provide the materials and give directions
 Each group will do their activity while observing health
protocols
 Each group will choose one representative to report

Group 1
 Activity: TV COMMERCIAL
 Make a TV commercial about the useful of materials. Choose 3 from the
list.
Guide Questions:
 Based on the materials you have chosen how it becomes helpful or useful
to us?

Group 2
 Activity: ROLE PLAY
 Work with the group and create a skit about how different materials
become useful and harmful to the community.
Guide Questions:
 Why do you think these materials are useful?
 Why do you think these materials are harmful?

Group 3
 Activity: SINGING BEE
 Compose a jingle about useful and harmful materials.
Guide Questions:
 Why do we need to know which materials are useful and harmful?
  Base on your jingle, why do you consider that materials are useful and
harmful?
EXPLAIN
 Discuss:
*USEFUL MATERIALS

 Materials that serves its purpose.

I. Developing mastery (leads to  Can be used for other purposes.
Formative Assessment)  Can be recycled.
 Can be dumped straight into a landfill.
 Something can be recovered from the material.

*HARMFUL MATERIAL

X Materials that is toxic to us.

X Materials that can be cause injury.
X Materials that cannot be dumped straight into a landfill.
X Can pollute the environment easily
X Take too much time to decompose.
