- Burned papers
IV. Procedure:
A. Motivation:
Teacher’s Activity Pupils’ Activity

Good Morning! Good Morning Sir!

Please observe your surroundings and any (picking pieces of paper or any dirt and aligning the
pieces of mess you see put it on the trash, and chairs)
aligned your chairs properly.

Very Good! You may now be seated. (pupils will be on their seat)

Last week we discussed all about matter. May

I know who can recall what matter is? Student#1: matter is anything that has mass and
takes up space
 Another? Student#2: Matter is anything, such as a solid, liquid
or gas that has mass and occupies space.

Very Good
Please give them 3 claps

(uniting every group will singing “The more we get

Before we start to our lesson today, I would
like to group you in to two (2). First group are on
my left side and the second group will be on my
right side. You may now group yourselves while
you are singing “The more we get together...” and
simultaneously make a wide circle on your group’s
place.
Together”)
“The more we get together, together, together. The
more we get together the happier are we.
And your friends are my friend and my friends are
your friends
The more we get together the happier are we.”

(Listening)
I have here samples of two object converted
into two different forms. Yes, Sir!
I would like you to observe changes happened
by comparing it in terms of size, color and texture. (Listening)
Understood?

In group one,the task will be Matches on its

original composition, Burned and Broke into (Starting their work and sharing Ideas)
pieces.
In group two, will be Papers on its original
composition, Burned and Tear into pieces

You may start now!

Answer to the group activity

characteristics Group 1 Group 2

Matches Paper
Break into pieces Burned Tear into pieces Burned
size smaller than to powdered or smaller than the ashes-like size
the original size transformed into normal paper
its smallest form
or it became ashes
color same color from color black same as the original color black with the
its the original touch of gray
texture same as the rougher same as the first easily tear
original rough object smooth
 Okay, Time is up.
Please stop writing and post all your work on
the board. (every group will post their works on the board)

Choose two representatives to explain what

you have observed. Group 1 Rep.:
The matches that broke into pieces have smaller size
compare to its original form but same color and
texture. On the other hand, the burned matches are
very far from its characteristics in terms of size, color
and texture from the original. It gets powdery, color
black and rougher.

Very Good.
Please give Group 1 an ANGEL CLAP. (Clap) 1 2 3
(Stamp your feet) 1 2 3
(make a Halo) Angel...

Group 2 Rep.:
The papers were cut into pieces but also same color
and texture as the original. But, on the burned
papers it became ashes. Color black and when you
hold it, it easily destroy.

Very Good also.

Give Group 2 an OISHI CLAP. (Clap) 1 2 3
(Stamp your feet) 1 2 3
Oishi...

B. Presentation:
You all have very good answer and your
answers are much closed to each other but (Listening)
different variables.
In Group One, Matches and in Group Two
Paper.

A while ago, two of your classmate defines

what matter is, and one of them answer that
matter has its states.
Who can give me one state? Student #1:Solid

Another? yes Student #2: Liquid

and last one. Student #3: Gas

Very good, please give them 4claps Class: 4x clap

And matters may also change. (listening)

Changes in matter may occur when a force or

energy applied in an object.
For example (get a piece of paper)
I will tear this paper into pieces.

What changed did you noticed? Student#1: it became smaller.

Very good. The size, it became smaller than

the original

And Why do you think so? Student#2: because you exerted force for it to be
Very well said transformed into pieces.

I tear it with my two hands, it will never be

tearing into pieces until someone or
somebody will do right?

How about the lighted matches, what

changed did you noticed?
Student#1: it became ashes
Okay another. How about the color?

Student#2: the color became black

Very good, and last

Student#3: became rougher because of its size.

Very Good pupils.
Give yourselves a YES CLAP.
(Clap) 1 2 3
(Stamp your feet) 1 2 3
YES...

What we did earlier (Matches and Papers

activity) undergo changes,
And may be classified into Physical or
Chemical change.

Physical Change Chemical Change

- An object may change in form but - The molecules of an object
not in the kind of molecules it has changed into another kind of molecules
and a new substance with new properties
is formed.

Examples: Examples:
logs changed into wood chips rust in irons
 a fruit sliced into pieces burned object
big rocks change into small rocks spoiled food
water change into ice
ice or water into water vapour
ice into water
tear paper

When we say Physical Change, the internal make-

up of the object (molecules) stays the same, even (Listening)
after the change — only its form changes.
Just like the paper I tear into pieces. Only the size
and shape changed but not its internal component.

Physical Change is also called Reversible change

where in the resulting element can be opposite into (Listening)
the object before. Changes that can be reversed.

Take a look at this change.

What state of matter the ice is? Student#1: Solid

Very good.

And we all know that when we put the ice into a

hotter place it melts. But the composition of the ice
is the same as the water, only that it changes it
form. Understood? Class: Yes.

Do you think we bring back the water into its earlier Student #1: Yes, we can put it on the colder place
form? How? such as refrigerator.
Okay Very Good.

And when we say Chemical Change, the internal

make-up (molecules) of the object changes.
Unlike a physical change, chemical changes cannot
be reversed. Changes that cannot be reversed are
called Non-reversible Change. We cannot bring it
back to its original form.
Every day, we experience chemical changes in
many things around us.

How about you. (Calling the student to stand up and answer the
question)
What you have noticed to the burned matches
from activity. Student #1: it became ashes when lighted, the
color is different to the original and its texture is
rougher.
Okay, you may be seated.

Think of the dry wood in the fireplace. When we

light the wood up, it burns gently and after a while (Listening)
it turns into ashes. As it burns, it produces heat,
light and smoke which escapes through the air. The
heat, light, fire and smoke are all good
characteristics of a chemical reaction, which result
in a completely new matter—ashes.
Note that the ashes from the burning wood have an
entirely new molecular composition. It can never
be turned back into wood again.
Understood? Class: Yes Sir.

Okay here are the other example of Physical change

Physical Change

Sliced Fruit (Papaya) Logs into woodchips

And on the other hand, the Chemical Changed

Chemical Change

Who can give me other examples in Physical

Change?
Student #1: blended fruits
Very Good, Another?
Student #2: crumpling paper.
Okay, good.

How about Chemical Change.

Student #3: spoiled milk
Excellent. Last one.
Student #4: digesting food.
Wow, very excellent.

C. Application:

I have here an activity that you will be answering

together with your groups.

You will go in front one by one and give examples (Listening)

on the following changes we tackled. Alternately
give example on the Physical Change and Chemical
change.
Understood?

PHYSICAL CHANGE CHEMICAL CHANGE

 D. Evaluation:

Okay time is up. I will check every group’s answer

and tomorrow will be receiving a points.

Any question?
(Students may ask or may not)

If there is no question please get your notebook

and answer this seatwork. (Students will get there notebook)

Directions: Analyze the following changes in matter. If the change in matter is Physical
Change put “PC” and if it is Chemical Change put “CC”. Write your answer in the space
provide before the number.

____1. Spoiled food ____6. Ignited matches
