Content The learners demonstrate understanding of groupings of different materials based on their properties
Standard and changes that materials undergo when exposed to certain conditions.

Performance The learners should be able to recognize and practice proper handling of products and evaluate whether
Standard changes in materials are useful or harmful to one’s environment.

Week 1
(Note: Science is
taught five times a
week (ELEM) in
this case since the Classify materials based on the ability to absorb water, float, sink, undergo decay
MELC is good for (PAKILAGAY CODE FROM MELCs) ito
1 week it means
that this MELC
should be taught
in 5 days)
Describe and classify materials based
DAY 1 on the ability to absorb water
DAY 2 Compare the characteristics of
materials which do not absorb water
and materials which absorb water

DAY 3 Identify and classify materials that float

and sink

DAY 4 Classify materials that float and sink

DAY 5 Identify and classify materials that

undergo decay

Content The learners demonstrate understanding changes that materials undergo when exposed to certain conditions.
Standard

Performance The learners should be able to evaluate whether changes in materials are useful or harmful to one’s
Standard environment
Week 2-3
(Note: Science is
taught five times a
week (ELEM) in
this case since the Describe changes in solid materials when they are bent, pressed, hammered, or cut;
MELC is good for (PAKILAGAY CODE FROM MELCs) ito

that this MELC
should be taught
in 10 days)

bent or pressed

DAY 5 Describe what happens to solid

materials when hammered

DAY 6 Describe what happens to solid

materials when cut

DAY 7 Differentiate changes in materials when

hammered or cut

DAY 8 Demonstrate how materials may

undergo change by bending, pressing,
hammering and cutting

DAY 9 Group materials based on its ability to

be bent, pressed, hammered and cut

DAY 10 Make an artwork using bent, pressed,

and cut materials.
Week 4-5 Describe changes in properties of materials when exposed to certain conditions such as temperature or when
(Note: Science is mixed with other materials
taught five times a
week (ELEM) in (PAKILAGAY CODE FROM MELCs) ito
this case since the
MELC is good for
2 weeks it means
that this MELC
should be taught
in 10 days)
DAY 1 Infer changes in the properties of solid
materials

DAY 2 Describe what happens to materials

when heated

DAY 3 Describe what happens to materials

when cooled

DAY 4 Describe what happens to the solid

materials when mixed with other solid
materials

DAY 5 Identify the effect of mixing two solid

materials

DAY 6 Describe what happens to solid when

mixed with liquid materials

DAY 7 Identify the effect of mixing solid and

liquid materials

DAY 8 Describe what happens when two liquid

materials are mixed

DAY 9 Describe the changes in the different

materials when exposed to different
temperature
DAY 10 Prepare a fruit-veggie juice out of
available fruits and vegetables in your
area

Week 6-7
(Note: Science is
taught five times a
week (ELEM) in Identify changes in materials whether useful or harmful to one’s environment.
this case since the
MELC is good for
(PAKILAGAY CODE FROM MELCs) ito
2 weeks it means
that this MELC
should be taught
in 10 days)
DAY 1 Identify changes in materials
that are useful or harmful to
one’s environment.

DAY 2 Determine whether the change

in the material is harmful or
useful in the environment.

DAY 3 Describe the harmful effects of

the changes in the materials
to the environment

DAY 4 Describe beneficial effects of

the changes in the materials

DAY 5 Suggest ways of

preventing/minimizing the
harmful effects of the changes
 in the materials to the
environment

DAY 6 Suggest ways to improve the

useful effects of the changes in
materials

DAY 7 Make a graphic organizer on

the beneficial effects of the
changes in the materials.

DAY 8 Prepare a table showing the

list of medicines/foods found
at home, in school or in the
community with the required
storage temperature

DAY 9 Cite ways on how food and

medicine are affected by
changes in temperature

DAY 10 Prepare a collage from used

materials available at home
or in the community.
