Guided Group activity
Practice
Learners will work in groups and test the physical properties like texture, hardness, solubility, colour, shape, density etc of the given
materials like salt, sugar, sand, rock, cotton, oil, honey etc and make a report on it. They will discuss their results with the other group and
justify their answers.
Differentiated Approaching
Activities
Learners will identify the physical and chemical properties of matter and attempt to explain the meaning of the terms. Differentiated worksheet.
Differentiated
worksheets. Meeting

Learners will compare and explain the difference between physical and chemical properties of matter. They will also give definitions of them. Differentiated worksheet.

Exceeding

Learners will test the materials for their physical and chemical properties, will draw inferences and give explanation of their findings. Differentiated worksheet.
