This document provides information about measuring and estimating temperature using a thermometer. It discusses key thermometer parts and temperature scales. Activities guide students to estimate temperatures in different contexts and calculate changes in temperature. Estimating involves rounding numbers to place values and using compatible numbers. Practice problems cover estimating body temperatures, water boiling points, and average temperatures over time. The goal is for students to gain experience measuring, estimating, and working with temperature concepts.

thermometer (alcohol and/ or Digital) in degree Celsius. DAY 1 Explore and Discover A Thermometer is an instrument for measuring temperature, a unit for measuring temperature if the degree Celsius (◦C). A thermometer consists of a glass attached to a glass tube with a number a scale. The liquid in the bulb rises or drops with change the temperature.
Each space in the number scale represents 1◦C. The numbers below 0 are written with a minus (-) sign.
To read a thermometer, find the level of the liquid or the mercury.

Summarizing the Lesson •Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of an object. •We can measure temperature by using thermometer. •The parts of a thermometer are: mercury, glass tube, glass bulb, and scale. •The commonly used unit to measure temperature is degree Celsius ( ◦C ). ACTIVITY 3 Assume the temperature of the following. 1.A kettle of water was made to boil for 5 minutes more than after it reached its boiling point. What is the temperature of the water? 2.What is the room temperature if the red liquid (mercury) rose to 30◦ above the freezing point? Day 2 Estimate the Temperature (e.g. inside the classroom) How do you know if you have a fever? One has a fever if one’s body temperature is above the normal body temperature. The normal body temperature is 37◦C? What will you do if one of the members of your family has a fever? Situation Mother wants to find out if her son Rommel has fever. She got her thermometer and found out that the mercury level in the thermometer is at 38.5◦C, If the normal body temperature is 37.5◦C, how much higher is her son’s temperature than the normal body temperature?
Activity 4 Answer: a. What is Rommel’s body temperature as recorded by her mother? b. What is the normal body temperature? c. How much higher is her son’s temperature than the normal body temperature?
Activity 4
Ask: What are the given facts?
What is asked in the problem? What operation are you going to use? Do we need the exact/ actual answer in the problem? What word/s suggests that we need only to estimate? Learn: Estimating is an educated guess. There are times when an estimate is needed and not the actual one.
Say: Let us solve and analyze the solution to the problem.
38.5◦C 39◦C - 37.5◦C -38◦C 1◦C estimated difference So, 1◦C is much higher is her son’s temperature than the normal body temperature. Activity 5 The conference room received the afternoon sun. The room temperature was found to be 35.6◦C. The janitor turned on the air-conditioner unit. After a few minutes the thermometer recorded it to be 25.3◦C. What was the estimated change in temperature? Activity 5 Do the activity. 1.At the start of the marathon the thermometer registered a temperature of 36.7◦C. after the marathon, the temperature dropped by 3.5◦C. What was the estimated temperature after the marathon? 2.What is the estimated temperature if a 30.◦C temperature rises 5.5◦C? Summarizing the Lesson
To estimate temperature, round the number to
the highest place value and use compatible numbers for the number to be estimated. This will make your estimated temperature reasonable. Activity 6 Estimate the temperature. Give the estimated sum or difference. 1.3.5 ◦C higher than normal body temperature 2.10.5◦C below 0◦C 3.Halfway between 78.6◦C and 80.2◦C 4.The sum of 32.4◦C and 33.8◦C 5.The difference between 98.2◦C and 72.8◦C Activity 6 Estimate the temperature by rounding method. 1.36.2◦C 2.43.7◦C 3.19.25◦C 4.29.2◦C 5.18.6◦C Day 3 Estimate the Temperature (e.g. inside the classroom) Activity 7 1.Look at the chart of temperature readings in a day. 6:00 a.m.- 24.5 ◦C 8:00 a.m. - 28◦C 10.00 a.m. - 30.4◦C 12:00 a.m. - 31◦C a.
