And lastly, raise your hand if
you have something to say or if
you have questions. Are we
clear?

Alright, so have you all been Yes ma’am/ No

If you are well, then that is Okay, ma’am.

Okay?

know the different states of matter,
right?

These are 2 more actually. We have

the plasma and Bose-Einstein
condensate, but we are only focusing
on solid, liquid, and gas today. Let us
start by having an activity called
“What State Am I In?”

ELICIT “What State Am I In?”

In what state of matter is ice in? Solid, ma’am

Correct. What about water? Liquid ma’am

Very Good. What about water that Gas, ma’am

That is correct. I can see that you are Ma’am, I think sound

have the same height as the first

Great! I need one more volunteer. I want to volunteer

Somebody? ma’am.

Very good! I am happy that you guys (Student’s listen)

great characteristic to have.

That is correct. I see that you have

orientation of these little circles or
particles, or how close or far apart

Participants, all you have to do is run

as fast as you can. You can,
however, step on the ground. Stay
atop the papers placed in the floor.
You may jump if you must. Lest the

EXPLAIN What you have observed? Ma’am, I observed

that Sound A
travelled the fastest.
It was followed by
Sound B then by
Sound C.
Very good! That is correct. In what
medium do you think Sound A
travelled in? Is it solid, liquid, or gas? It is solid, ma’am.

What made you think so? Because there is no

How about Sound B?

That is correct. How about sound C?

That is right! Very good. As you have I do not know,

sound also travels
fast but not as fast.
In solid, because the

Sound travels the

because the

That is right. It seems that you are
