Importance of Filtration

in our Lives
Yesterday, I asked you to
bring a mirror.
Get your mirrors and look at
your nose.

Review
Examine the inner part of
your nose.
What can you see?
What do you think is the
purpose of those little hairs
inside your noses?

Review
That’s right.
Small hair inside the nose called
cilia is important to us because
it filters the dirt and dust in
the air we breathe in.
Now, can you guess what kind
of technique and its uses that
we are going to talk about
today?
Review
Exploration: Group Activity
What technique will you use
to separate the mixtures?
Can you also tell the use of
the techniques in our lives?

Exploration: Group Activity

What are the standards to
be followed while performing
the experiments?

Exploration: Group Activity

Exploration: Group Activity
What kind of mixture do you
have?
What are the components of
mixtures?
How did you separate the
mixture?
What do you think is the benefit
of the filtration process?
Explanation: Discussion
Filtration is used to separate
solid particles from liquid and
gas by passing the mixture
through a filter paper.

Elaboration/Extension: Generalization
Why filtration is important to
our lives?

Elaboration/Extension: Generalization
Every day we use filtration.
Our body has its own way of
filtering and separating harmful
components form the air we
breathe in and from the food we
eat. This is done through the
process of respiration,
circulation and excretion
Elaboration/Extension: Generalization
The things we use like air
condition, gas tank in cars use
filtration too.
It is also important in chemical
and industrial application.

Elaboration/Extension: Generalization
For example processing waste water
stream is done to reduce hydraulic
loading as well as producing clean
water sources that can be
potentially reused within the plant
industry.
At home our very own water
filtration.
Elaboration/Extension: Generalization
Clap twice if the components can be
separated by filtration; tap the
table if can be separated by other
technique.

Elaboration/Extension: Application
1. salt solution
2. brewed coffee
3. mixture of water, common salt
and chalk powder
4. coconut oil and water
5. mixture of sand, soil and water

Elaboration/Extension: Application
Our body has its own filters
to clean as well as remove
the harmful materials that
are not good for our body.
How are we going to take
care our body?
Elaboration/Extension: Values Integration:
Make a poster to demonstrate
the benefits of filtration to our
lives. Use the knowledge you
gained in the activity.
