Review: Showing of Pictures

Say “hep hep” (clap) if it is living things
and “hooray” (raise your arms) if it is not a

Motivation: Children, what are the things

you see/observe around our room?
Tables and chairs teacher.
Yes, you are correct. What else do you
see?
Notebook and pencil teacher.
Very good. Children, you must know that
there a lot of things that you can see
inside this room and especially outside.

I will be flashing pictures of objects

through this laptop screen. All you have
to do is watch clearly and identify the
names of each object.

-bicycle
-ball
-juice
-water
-balloon
-cake
-bag
-coffee
Good job children. I have here a song -smoke
entitled “matter”. Let us sing it altogether.

Yes teacher.
C. Presentation
Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity
The teacher will show to the pupils three
real objects)

Wallet, bottled water and balloon teacher.

Very good! What is the shape of the

wallet?
Rectangle
Correct! Can you touch it?
Yes
Next, what can you say about the water in
the bottle? Do the water and the bottle
have the same shape?
Yes.
Good. Lastly, what can you say about the
balloon?
It is color red teacher.
That was correct. What is inside the
balloon?
There is air inside the balloon.
Very good. We call all those things as
matter. Everybody say “matter”.
Matter.
When we say “matter” It is anything that
occupies space and has weight/mass.
(Repeat after me) “Matter” it is anything that occupies space
and has weight/mass.

All the things around us is a matter. Even

the air that we inhale and exhale is also a
matter. What do we call the things around
us?
Matter

Children, there are three phases of

matter. These are solid, liquid and gas.

The first one is solid. Solids have

definite shapes that occupy definite
spaces. Solids can be held and seen.
(Teacher holding the wallet presented a
while ago.) Please Ethan touch the wallet.
Describe what you feel.
It is hard teacher.
What is its shape?
Rectangle teacher.

Very good Ethan. Now, can you please

get a solid object inside your bag? Come
here in front and show it to your
classmates. Teacher, this is a notebook.

What is the shape of the notebook?

Rectangle teacher.
Is it soft or hard?
Hard
Is it heavy or light?
Light
Is it a solid?
Solid
Children. Let us give him a “clap. So,
solids have definite shape. It can be held
and seen. Such as …
Pupils will repeat the meaning of solid.
Now, the second phase of matter is
Liquid. Ask a pupil to show his/her water
jug to the class.
The pupil will tell his/her classmates what
the jug contains.

I have here an empty glass.

Let’s fill the glass with the liquid from the
bottle? (Ask the pupils to describe the
shapes of water being poured.) What
happened to the water inside glass?
Does it take the shape of the glass?
Yes
It only shows that liquid takes the shape
of the container.
Pupils will repeat the meaning of liquid.
(Teacher holding the bottled water and
balloon) From these two remaining
objects, which do you think is liquid?
The bottled water teacher.
(Show the last remaining object.) What
am I holding?
Balloon.
What is inside the balloon?
There is an air inside the balloon.
Very good. This inflated balloon is filled
with air and air is an example of a gas.
Can you see the air?
No.
Air cannot be seen because it is
colorless. But it can be felt. Air is a matter
in a gas its everywhere.

There are also gases that can be seen

such smoke and clouds. (Pictures of
smoke and clouds to be presented.)

(The teacher will ask a pupil to deflate a

balloon and feel the air coming out from
it.)

Does the shape of the balloon change?

Yes teacher.
So, Gas takes the shape of its container;
therefore, it does not have a definite
shape. Pupils will repeat the meaning of Gas

Let us have more examples so that you

can really differentiate and identify the
states of matter.
You are going to have a group activity.
(The teacher will explain the group
activity.)

SOLID LIQUID GAS

The pupils will arrange the pictures and

place it under its proper column: solid,
liquid or gas.
D. Application

Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

Let us have another exercise.
Connect column A with column B

A B

SOLID

LIQUID

GAS

Who wants to answer the first one?

Which one is solid?
The flower is the solid.
Very good! Can you touch the flowers?

Yes teacher.
Your answer is correct. How about the
next one? Which one is the liquid? The
smoke from the car or the water from the
faucet?

The water from the faucet teacher.

Correct. Does the water take the shape of
the basin?
Yes
Do the liquids take the shape of its
container?
Yes, it takes the shape of its container.
Very good. How about the last one?
Which one is a gas? Is it the car?
It’s the smoke from the car teacher
Very good. You were all able to identify
the states of matter.
E. Generalization

Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

Again, what do we call the things around

us?
Matter.
Good. What are the three states of
matter?
Solid, Liquid and Gas.
What is the state of matter that has
definite size, shape and weight?
Solid.
Great! What about the state of matter that
takes the shape of their container and
can also flow and it can be poured?

Lastly, what is the state of matter that Liquid teacher.

usually cannot be seen, spreads out
easily and also takes the shape of its
container?
Gas teacher.
Very good. Let’s give everyone a
fireworks clap

The pupils will do the fireworks clap.

IV. EVALUATION
Write S if it is solid, L if it is liquid or G if it is gas. Write your answers inside the box
beside each picture.
