Lesson Plan in Science 5
Week 5 Day 3-4
Content: Changes that Materials Undergo
I. Learning Objective: Describe the changes that happen when materials are exposed to heat
II. Subject Matter :
A. Concept :The Product of Chemical Changes
In chemical change, new products are formed. The characteristics of the new
products are entirely differently from the original materials. When a chemical change
takes place, the product cannot be brought back to its original form. A chemical change is
irreversible.
B. Materials :Stove/burner, ripe fruit, unripe fruit, decomposed wood, wood, rice,
water, kettle
C. Reference: Science and Health for Daily Use 5
D. Process Skills : Observing, identifying, experimenting
E. Value Integration : Appreciation of the environment
III. Learning Tasks:
A. Engagement:
Perform Activity 1 “Taste Me” (Pre-assigned)
1. Wash the rice.
2. Place the rice with water inside the kettle.
3. Set it on the stove until the rice is cooked.
4. Observe what happened to the rice. Taste it.
Ask: What changes happened to the rice? Can we bring it back to its original form?
Why?
(The children should be able to tell that the rice was cooked. It can no longer be brought
back to its original form because the substance underwent chemical change
through the application of heat.)
B. Exploration
Group the class in three
Introduce the activity as “Working in Stations”
Procedure:
a. The 1st group will proceed to station 1 and do the activity posted and record their
observation on the sheet provided in the stations.
b. The 2nd group will proceed to station 2 and do the activity posted and record their
observations.
c. The 3rd group will proceed to station 3 and do the activity posted and record their
observations.
d. After answering the questions provided for each station, the groups proceed to the next
station moving clockwise.
e. The leader of each group will report on the activity undertaken in the last
station they went through.
1. Remind them the precautionary measures before conducting the activity.
2. Explain the use of each material.
3. Let them perform activity
(Remind them the value of cooperation and working harmoniously with others.)
“Working in Stations”
Station # 1
What You
Need:
1. wood (good lumber) Label it with A
2. decomposed wood, Label it with B.
What To Do
1. Examine the two pieces of wood and note the differences.
2. Note down your observations.
Guide Questions:
a. What was the difference between the two pieces?
b. Which sample of wood is decaying?
c. What is generated during the decaying process of wood?
d. What can heat do to the decaying process of wood?
(Given as assignment before the lesson, to search for the answers in the internet)
(Decomposition and Decay/ Trees for Life
Reference: treesforlife.org.uk/forest/forest-ecology/decomposition-and-decay/
Decomposition and decay are vital processes, playing an essential role in the
... compost heap, where the heat that is generated speeds up the process of
decay. ... the first agents of decay, and there are many species that grow in
dead wood.)
e. What kind of change of matter can be observed in this situation? Why?
Station # 2
What You Need
New metal spoon, rusty metal spoon
What to Do
1. Observe the new spoon. Examine its characteristics.
2. Get a rusty spoon. Examine.
Guide Questions:
a. Describe the difference between the two spoons.
b. If we try to clean the metal spoon, can we bring it back to its original form? Why
not?
c. What kind of change in matter is observed in this situation?
Station # 3
What You Need
unripe banana, ripe papaya
What to Do
1. Look at the unripe banana fruit in Saucer A. describe the banana as to its color,
texture, smell and taste.
2. Look at the ripe papaya in Saucer B. describe the papaya as to its color, texture,
smell, taste, and its composition.
Guide Questions:
a. Did the ripe banana change in taste? Color? Smell? Texture?
b. What conditions are observed for chemical change?
c. What happened to the papaya as it passed through chemical change?
Day 4
C. Explanation:
Ask: In all the activities performed, what change took place?
When a substance or a material went through chemical change, what will happen to its
product? Why?
Tell: In chemical change, new products are formed. The characteristics of the new
products are entirely different from the original form. A chemical change is irreversible.
D. Elaborate:
Can we change a ripe banana to unripe banana? Why? Can
we change cooked rice to uncooked rice? Why?
Directions; Read a paragraph about one of your favorite fruit then tell what what
kind of
temperature is best for storing them.
Bananas
Store bananas at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat. Bananas
become yellow, soft, and sweet as they ripen. If you want to speed the ripening
process, put bananas in a paper bag with an apple overnight. The natural ethylene
gas released by the apple will help ripen your bananas. Bananas are very delicate
and can be easily damaged by extreme temperatures, hot or cold. Refrigerating
bananas will turn their skins black. Black skinned bananas were most likely
exposed to extreme cold temperatures. The flesh inside will continue to ripen,
even refrigerated, and can still be eaten, or if too ripe, used for baking.
