5. Who among here loves wearing sunglasses when

walking on sunshine? 5. Some raise hands.

EXPLORE

A. Follow the activity instructions.

1. Divide the class into 9 groups.

2. Choose a leader for each group.

3. Distribute the materials needed.

4.Explain the procedure of activity.  What to do :Procedure;

A. Activity I – How does light travels through

transparent materials ( glass and water).

1. Place water in a translucent glass up to almost

the brim.

2. Put inside the glass the colored straw.

3. Draw the set up and label.

4. Describe briefly the appearance of the colored

straw as you look through the glass.

5. Does the straw appear straight inside the glass?

Why?

6. Explain your answer.

B. Activity II – How does light travel through
translucent, transparent and opaque.

1. Use your cp light and let the light pass through

the ff. materials.

• Translucent

• Transparent

• Opaque

• Cardboard

2. Watch the light as you allow it to pass through

the different materials.

3. Complete the tabulation below:

Materials Light able thru Explain Yes or

pass? No

Yes No

1.
Translucent

2.
Transparent

3. Opaque

4. Cardboard
 Answer in Activity 1;

 The straw does not appear straight inside

the glass.
 As the light pass through , the straw
bended/refracted.

Answer in Activity II

Materials Light able Explain why

to pass
through. Yes or No.

Yes No

1. ✓ -allows some light

Translucent to travel through
them.

2. ✓ -almost all of light

Transparent passes directly
through them.

3. Opaque ✓ -objects block light

and do not allow of
to travel through
them.

4. Cardboard ✓ -the light doesn't

travel because it is
thick and the light
will be reflected.

A. Answer the Guide Questions A.

1. What is the appearance of the colored straw 1. It bends or refracted

as you look through the glass?
2. It is the bending of wave when passing through
2. What is Refraction? one medium to another.

B. Refer to the Tabulation B.

3. How will you describe the light as it pass  Translucent

through in the following materials?
-allows some light to travel through them.
• translucent
 Transparent
• transparent -almost all of light passes directly through them.

• opaque  Opaque

• cardboard -objects block light and do not allow of to travel

through them.

 Cardboard

-objects block light and do not allow to travel

through them.

4 What are other examples of materials whic is:

4.
• translucent
• translucent
• transparent
-tinted car window.,sunglasses.wax paper.
• opaque
• transparent

-cling wrap.cellophane.clear glass lightbulb.

• opaque

-book, wood, metal

5.What is reflection of light?

5. When a light ray approaches a smooth polished
surface and the light ray bounces back, it is known
as the reflection of light.

ELABORATE

1. How does light travel? 1. Light travels by means of waves.

2. What makes it different from heat and sound?
2. Light waves are electro magnetic waves are
mechanical waves. Light waves are transverse
while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves
can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a
material medium to travel, and hence cannot
travel in vacuum.

3. Einstein believed light is a particle (photons) is a

wave. The main point of Einstein's light energy is
3. Describe the nature of light according to
Albert Einstein. related to oscillation frequency.

4. Lower case "c"

4. What is the symbol of speed of light? 5. Because the light cannot reflect it bounces
back.
5. Why is that you cannot see the light inside a
closed bedroom?

EVALUATE

A. Science Concept

1. Name several characteristics of light similar to 1. They are both forms of energy that travels in
sound? waves. They both have properties of wavelength,
frequency and amplitude.
2. Is there any object that can travel faster than
light? 2. Nothing in this world that can travel faster than
light.
3. What is the unit of measurement of speed of
light? 3. Meter per second (m/s)

B. Skills/waves B.
