SEMI-DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE 8

Quarter 3
Date: February 22, 2023
Grade & Section: 8-Pearl
Duration: 1 hour

I. Objectives
A. Content Standard:
B. Performance Standards:
C. Learning Competency: Explain physical changes in terms of the arrangement and motion of
atoms and molecules. (S8MT-IIIc – d - 9)
D. Learning Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, learners will be able to perform the following activities with at
least 80% proficiency.
Knowledge: Define phase change and identify the different phase changes of matter.
Skill: Analyze and interpret the phase diagram using the PHET Interactive
Simulation on Phase Change
Attitude: Recognize the importance of phase change in the water cycle.

II. Content/Topic: Phase Changes of Matter

III. Learning Resources
A. Reference: Science 8-Learning Activity Sheet, pages 12-15
B. Materials: TV, activity sheet, laptop, PPT, PHET Interactive Simulation
C. Procedure
A. Preparatory Activities:
1. Prayer
2. Greetings
3. Checking of attendance

B. Elicit:
What was our topic last meeting?
What are the four basic concepts on the particulate nature of matter?

C. Engage: Unlocking of terms using the activity below.

ACTIVITY: WORD CRYPTOGRAM

Directions: Arrange the letters to come up with the correct answer. Use the given number
and definition as guide to complete the word.
Note: In this activity, decoding the terms or to unlock the is used with numbers, so just like in
Mathematics, we are dealing with numbers.
The answer of the riddle is physical changes. Changes is the plural form of change because the
statement requires a plural form, and this lesson was taught in English.
The activity is used to unlock the different terms which then used in the discussion.
D. Explore:
Group Activity: Use the PHET Interactive simulation on phase change

 Explore the simulation by clicking the slider and find out what happens to the
water molecules as it is heated and cooled.

 Analyze and interpret the phase change diagram on the transformation of water
molecules from solid to gas as the temperature and pressure changes.
E. Explain:
What do you observe on the water molecules as you apply heat on it?
How about cooling the water up to 00C?
What do you observe on the water molecules as the temperature reaches to 28 0C?
Explain the phase diagram as what is observe in the simulation.

F. Elaborate:

 Phase Change-a change from one state to another without changing the chemical
composition of a substance.

 Physical change- a change of state without composition changes in matter

 Evaporation/vaporization-the change of phase from liquid to gas

 Solidification/freezing- the change of phase from liquid to solid

 Melting- the change of phase from solid to liquid

 Sublimation -the change of phase from solid to gas without passing the liquid state

 Condensation- the change of phase wherein gas turns to liquid

Note: A wrap-up video in the form of song is presented to the class as the summary of the
lesson specially on the explanation of the phase diagram.
G. Application:
Do you think phase change is important?
What do you think will happen to the environment without phase change or phase
transformation?
Do you think water cycle will still be present if there is no phase change?

H. Evaluate: Picture Analysis

Directions: Choose the correct word/phrase that describes the picture below, a
clue statement is given also.
deposition sublimation melting

solidification/freezing condensation
vaporization/evaporation
1.

- the change of phase wherein gas turns

to liquid

- the change of phase wherein gas turns

to solid without passing the liquid state
2.
3.

- the change of phase from liquid to gas

4.

without passing the liquid state

I. Assignment:
Refer to activity 3 of your module on page 16.
1. What are the phase changes involved if temperature increases and pressure decreases?
2. What are the phase changes involved if temperature decreases and pressure increases?
