D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new The teacher will discuss the following concepts:
skills #1
KEY POINTS
The substances which are separated with the help of this method can be impurities
which need to be removed or both the substances which are separated can be useful
products.
This method is useful only when the substances which need to be separated are in
small quantity.
The substances in handpicking method can be separated on the basis of size, color,
shape, weight, etc.
For example:
You must have seen your mother or grandmother separates tiny stones from the rice
granules before having it cooked for your meal. In this scenario, your mother or your
grandmother, must have been used barely her hands to separate the impurities which
are the tiny stones from the useful substance which are the rice granules.
E. Discussing new concepts and practicing new The teacher will also lay emphasis on the following:
skills #2
The Advantages and Disadvantages of Handpicking as a Means of Separating Solid
Mixtures are mentioned below:
Advantages
1. It is the simplest method of separating substances from a mixture.
2. This method doesn’t need any special machinery for the separation of
substances.
3. It takes less time when used for a small quantity.
Disadvantages
1. It is not practical for large amount of substances.
2. It is only possible when components of the mixture are visibly different in
size or the size of each component of the mixture is enough for a human hand to
grasp or pick.
F. Developing mastery MINUTE TO SEPARATE IT!

Let the pupils play the game in separating solid mixtures based from the
Game Show “Minute To Win It.”
The teacher will be asking volunteer players, one after the other, to play
the game.

D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new The teacher will then discuss the following important points about sieving.
skills #1
KEY POINTS
Sieving is done by using a device to separate different sizes of materials. The material
is subjected to a mechanical force of vertical and horizontal movement, with the help
of container of mesh or perforated bottom through which the material is shaken or
poured.
Sieving removes the impurities or separate two useful substances from a mixture. The
sieve only removes or holds particles that are larger than the pores in the sieve.
Therefore, we can design the sieve according to our need.
A real-life example of a sieve is a tea strainer, which is used to separate tea leaves
from the water. The sieve prevents the large particles which cannot pass through the
holes in the sieve and retains them on the sieve.
E. Discussing new concepts and practicing new The teacher will also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of sieving as a means
skills #2 of separating the components of a mixture.
ADVANTAGES
It does not require much skill and is a traditional method used for separation.
It is a very cheap method as we do not need the installation of sophisticated
equipment.
Takes lesser time.
DISADVANTAGE
Since the efficiency of this method is dependent on having a different particle
size, it cannot be used to separate mixtures which contain particles of the
same size.

Write the word DEAL if the following statements are true. Otherwise, write the word
NO DEAL.
1. Sieving is a method of separating mixtures which is judged by the size and
thickness of the particles of the components which make up the mixture.
2. Sieving can be applied in mixtures having components of the same particle
size.
3. Sieving can separate the components of all kinds of mixtures.
4. The sieve, which is the tool used in sieving, can only hold particles that are
smaller than the pores in the sieve.
5. The number of particles to be separated must be taken into consideration

lesson objectives and the lesson for today which is all about “Separating Mixtures through
the process called Winnowing.”
D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new The teacher will then discuss the following concepts:
skills #1
KEY POINTS
Winnowing is the method of separating mixture in which heavier components of the
mixture are separated from the lighter components with the help of the wind.
We must understand that winnowing is the separation of mixtures judged by size and
weight whereas sieving is judged by shape and size.
Example:
Rice winnowing is a process of separating small and large grains by air flow
practiced since the ancient human history especially in societies where rice is the
main source of carbohydrate (Asia, Africa, and Latin America).
E. Discussing new concepts and practicing new The teacher will also discuss the following advantages and disadvantages of
skills #2 winnowing as a means of separating mixture.
ADVANTAGES
Winnowing is a method that does not require machines for functioning.
It is based on physical labor, and it takes less time for processing and very
cheap.
DISADVANTAGES
Winnowing is a method where the heavier components of the mixture are
separated from the lighter substances. This process is not suitable for the
materials that are heavier than grains like stones.
This method can be done only with the help of the wind.
The teacher will call volunteer pupils to perform the following processes in front.
Other pupils must observe and record every important detail from the experiment.
Materials needed: container/ plastic cups, plate/ flat container, dry sand, flour, saw
dust, small pebbles, hand fan
TASK 1

1. Prepare the hand fan, plastic cups, plates, dry sand, and flour.
2. Mix or combine the dry sand and the flour in the plastic cup.
3. Put the plate/ flat container on top of the table.
4. Using the hand fan, perform the process of winnowing to separate the
components of the mixture.
5. Observe what happens and record your observation in the table/
chart as presented below.
TASK 2

1. Prepare the hand fan, plastic cups, plates, saw dust, and pebbles.
2. Mix or combine the saw dust and pebbles in the plastic cup.

G. Finding practical applications of concepts The teacher will let volunteer pupils answer the following questions:
and skills in daily living 1. Can you still see farmers using the method of winnowing in separating the
filled grains of rice from the empty grains of rice they have harvested?
Some pupils may answer YES, some may answer NO.
2. If NO, what method are they using nowadays in order to separate the filled
grains from the empty grains?
Some farmers of today use machineries in separating the filled grains from the
empty grains.
H. Making generalizations and abstractions The teacher will let volunteer pupils to describe the process of winnowing as a means
about the lesson of separating the components of a mixture. Furthermore, he will let other volunteer
pupils to identify the advantages and disadvantages of winnowing.
