DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE 8

Learning Area Science Quarter Third Quarter

Grade Level 8 Date February 22 – 23, 2023

Prepared by: JUBILEEN H. REBADEO CT: MRS. JANN NUARINA L. DE LA CRUZ

Topic: The Particle Nature of Matter: Physical Changes of Matter
Content Standards: The learners demonstrate an understanding of the particle nature of
matter as basis for explaining properties, physical changes, and structural
of substances and mixtures.
Performance Standards: The learners shall be able to present how water behaves in its
different states within the water cycle.
Value Standard: The learners value individual changes and differences.
Learning Targets: At the end of this lesson, you should be able to say, “I can”…
1. Understand how physical change occur in the particle nature of matter
2. Identify different types of physical changes on the phase of matter
3. Differentiate the different physical changes on the phase of matter (S8MT-llla-b-8)

Concepts:
Physical change is a change in the form of substance, but does not change it
into another substance. Also, it is a change in appearance of matter without change in its
structure. In physical changes in terms of the arrangement and motion of atoms and
molecules, the shape, size and phase may change. The physical (phase) changes include
melting, evaporation, sublimation, condensation, freezing and deposition.
Behaviour Indicator: At the end of this lesson, the learners will be able to apply predictive
skills and deductive reasoning in their daily or practical activities.
21st Century Skill/s: Observing, communicating skills, deductive reasoning, and predicting
skills.

Date and Time Frame: February 22 – 23, 2023, 1 hr. and 30 minutes
 Teaching Hints Teacher’s Activity
A. Preliminaries
1. Greetings Good morning class!
2. Prayer Let us all stand, and seek for
the guidance of the
Almighty.
Praise be thy name of our
lord Jesus Christ.
3. Securing of the cleanliness Please arrange your chairs
properly and pick up the
pieces of dirt around you
before you sit
down.
4. Checking of the Do we have any absentees
attendance today?
5. Checking of Did I give you an assignment
assignment last meeting?
6. Recapitulation of What have we
the previous discussed last
discussion meeting?
Can someone give me
brief information about
the properties of solids,
liquids and gases
according on the particle
of matter?
Very good! How about
the movement or
attraction between their
particles?
Students’ Activity
Good morning Ma’am!
Now and forever. Amen.
(The students will pick- up the
pieces of paper/plastics.)
No, ma’am.
No, Ma’am.
Last meeting, we discussed
about properties of solids,
liquids and gases based on
the particle of matter.
Solids have definite shapes
and volume. While, liquid
takes the shape and volume
of the container. Lastly, gas
can also take the shape of
the container.
The particles of solid are
packed closely together in
fixed position and are held
by strong force, therefore
the particles cannot move.
While in liquid, the particles
have spaces between them
compared to solid. The
particles can somehow move
as they attract one another.
Lastly, in gas, the spaces
between the particles are
very large and the attraction
is weak which makes the
particles move freely.
 Yes, very good. Now that
you already understand
properties of solid, liquid
and gas on the particle
nature of matter, let us
proceed with our
discussion today.
7. Presenting the Before we begin our
learning targets. discussion for today, Let
us first know our learning
(ppt presentation) targets.

Learning Targets: At the end

of this lesson, you should be
able to say, “I can”…

1. Understand how
physical change occur
in the particle nature
of matter
2. Identify different
types of physical
changes on the phase
of matter
3. Differentiate the
different physical
changes on the phase
of matter (S8MT-llla-b-
8)

B. ENGAGE
For us to easily
PRE-Laboratory
understand our topic,
Exercise
there are terms we need
to understand first. We
might encounter these
words later during our
discussion.

SMALL GROUP ACT.

Group yourselves into 5

groups (7 members per
group).

Let us first unlock some

terms relevant to our
discussion.
There are two columns of
words flashed on the
screen, and you are going
to match the terms with
the statements that best
describes them.
You will be given 3
minutes to finish this Yes, Ma’am
activity.

Are my instructions clear?

Ok time is up.

Let us now unravel each

of the terms meaning.

Can I have the answer of

the first group?
EXPECTED ANSWEER

• PHASE CHANGE - is a
physical process in
which a substance goes
from one phase to
another
• PHYSICAL CHANGE - a
change in appearance of
matter without change
in its structure
• CONDENSATION -
change from gas to
liquid
 • FREEZING - change from
liquid to solid
• MELTING - change from
solid to liquid
• DEPOSITION - change
from gas to solid
• KINETIC ENERGY - is the
energy an object has
due to its motion
• EVAPORATION - change
from liquid to gas

That is right!

Very good group 1

a) DURING/PROPER
Before we begin our
Laboratory Exercise
discussion for today, we
will be having an activity

Activity 1: Have I
Changed?

Materials:
➢ 2 pieces of paper
➢ Water
➢ Sand
➢ Transparent
bottle/container
Instructions:
1. The class will be
given three tasks
to accomplish
within 5 minutes.
2. Upon finishing the
task, the students
will answer the
table below using
the activity sheet
provided by the
teacher within 3
minutes.
 Do you understand the
instruction class?

Any clarification or
question?

Yes, Ma’am.

None, Ma’am

Questions:
C. EXPLAIN
EXPECTED ANSWERS
b) POST-Laboratory 1. Is the structure of the
materials still the
same even if they
changed appearance?
2. Are the arrangements
of their atoms still the
same?
3. Is paper still a paper?
Why do you say so?
Thank you!
1. Yes, even though the
materials changed their
appearance, they all still
have the same original
structure.
2. Yes, because they all did
not change its chemical
structure.
3. Yes, because it still has
its physical
characteristics of a
paper.

Very Good observation

class!
All of your answers are
correct.

Based from our 1st activity,

we have identified that the
materials that were ripped
and mixed changed their
physical property but the
arrangement of their atoms
are still the same.
 Physical change is a change in
the form of substance, but
does not change it to another
substance. It is a change in
the appearance of matter
without change in it's
structure.

That is right!
Now, let us thoroughly
discuss the phase changes
under physical change.

1st Scenario

I will give you two situations.

i. You have two
containers filled with
water, (a) one with
cover and (b) one
without cover. Both
were left from 9:00
o’clock in the morning
on a hot day until the
next 24 hours. You
noticed that the water
in both container
decreased, but
container b has less
water than container
a.
 EXPECTED ANSWER

1. The changes that took

Question:
1. What do you think are
the changes that took
place when water is
left in an open
container? In a closed
container?
2. What specific physical
change occur?
3. In the enclosed
container, what have
you observe on top of
the lid?
4. How did it happen?
place was physical
change in the water was
the open container has
lesser water left in it
while the enclosed one
has more water left in it.
2. The change that occurs
was evaporation.
3. There is water in it.
4. As the water
evaporates, the
droplets or vapors were
trapped at the bottom
of the lid and it
condensates.

2nd Scenario

You are asked by your mom

to make an ice to be used for
the juice that will be served
for the dinner a night before.
After putting some water on
the ice cube tray, you leave it
in the refrigerator.
Question:
1. The water turned into
ice because of the low
temperature inside the
refrigerator. The water
freeze that is why it
became ice.

the ice cubes that you have
made. You put it in the juice
that your mom has made.

2. What do you think will

happen to the ice?

That is right!
EXPECTED ANSWER
3rd Scenario
Your mom put mothballs
inside your drawer. Then a
week after you realized that
the mothballs disappeared.
Question:
1. What do you think
happened to
mothballs? Why?
That is right!
Last Scenario
You traveled to Alaska, then
your have observe that there
are frost in the leaves of the
plants near your house.
Question:
1. How did the frost
form?
That is right!
Excellent Observation class!
We have now identified the
different physical changes in
matter.
For the last question.
Have you observed any
significant changes in your
body or life and how did you
handle those changes?
Are these changes important
in our lives?
1. The mothballs
sublimates which turned
from solid into gas.
1. The Frost was formed
because of the water
vapor in the
surrounding turned into
ice. This process is
called deposition.
EXPECTED ANSWER:
I have observed some physical
changes in me and by that
changes I was able to become
more mature.
Yes, Physical changes are
happening all the time around
us. The good example of it is
the water cycle. Without this
process, many vegetation
might not survive. All of us are
affected thus we must be
aware of it.
None, Ma’am
 That is right!
Very good!
