EXPLORE 20 MINUTES
 Let the students perform the activity following the procedure.  Learner’s Material
 Students will answer the question:  Materials needed for
Question Category the activity
What is Sound  Activity notebook
temperature?
Sound temperature is a sound term that  defined as:
Heat is a form of
kinetic energy, just
like sound. So as
molecules vibrate
faster, and heat
increases, sound
can travel faster;
however, the speed
of sound can also
be affected by
humidity and air
pressure.

LS: Defining Format for Clarity

Contextualization
EXPLAIN 10 minutes
The student will answer the guide questions in the activity and discuss it on Activity Notebook
the board. Blackboard / chalk

ELABORATE 10 minutes
 The students will explain the statement: Activity notebook
Porous blankets of snow tend to absorb sound waves. While this
dampens local background noises, it can, as a result, enhance the
perception of loud noises, like airplane takeoffs, at a distance.
 The students will describe and compare the speed of sound in hot and
cold temperatures.

EVALUATE
The students will watch the following video and make a reaction to it. Activity Notebook
