IV. LEARNING PHASES Learning Activities
Timeframe
A. Introduction From your previous lesson, you have learned that there are forces that
Panimula 60 minutes affect the movements of different objects. In this lesson, you will understand
that forms of energy like sound, heat, light, and electricity can be
transformed. You will be able to demonstrate these energy transformations.
Like gravity and friction, sound, heat, light, and electricity are other forms
of energy that may be explained in terms of movement of smaller objects.
Sound is a form of energy produced by hitting two objects together or by
vibrating objects, like strings of guitar. When you speak, sing or hum, your
vocal chords vibrate. Without any medium, sound cannot travel.
Heat or thermal energy is the energy from the moving molecules or tiny
particles in matter. It is transferred from bodies of higher temperatures to
bodies of lower temperature.
Light is an energy that is transported and produced by vibrations of
exceedingly small particles in matter through electromagnetic (EM) waves.
The sun’s energy travels as a visible light, the only EM wave that can be seen
by the naked eyes.
Electricity is an energy when electrons move from one atom to another.
Atoms are basic building blocks of matter that make up everything. Electrons
are small particles that spin around the center of the atom holding a negative
(-) charge while protons are particles in the center of an atom that hold a
positive (+) charge.

of guitar strings sun radio) burning woods

Look at the illustration of an atom below. Name the different particles found
in the atom.
The two particles of an atom found in the center of it are
(1) ____________ and (2) ___________. While the particle (3)
______________ constantly spins around the center of an
atom is called (4) ________________. Electricity is produced
whenever electrons move from one atom to another.
When objects are rubbed against each other, the
electrons of their atoms have the tendency to move from
one atom to another. How electrons move depends on the
electron attraction of the atoms. Some objects like metals share electrons
easily while some like plastic and rubber do not. Objects that share electrons
easily are conductors and those that do not share electrons easily are
insulators. Materials that may or may not share electrons are called
semiconductors. Semiconductors are often used in electronics.

Have you ever wondered how a phone call transfer voice of the caller to
the receiver from the other end of the line? In this activity, you will
demonstrate how sound is transformed by making an improvised telephone.
B. Activity Title: Makeshift Telephone
Materials:
2 disposable cups or empty clean tin cans long string or thread
2 matchsticks
Procedures:
1. Punch a hole on each end of empty tin cans. Ask help from an elder
member of the family for your safety.
2. Using the long string or thread, make a knot to the matchsticks at the
outside part of the empty tin cans or disposable cups.
3. Try talking on the other end while one of your family members will listen
on the other end with the string tightly pulled. Did he/she hear a sound?

Copy and draw in the box the makeshift telephone you have made. Label
the materials you have used. Do this on your answer sheet.

Makeshift telephone illustration

Questions:
Answer the following questions on your answer sheet.
1. What happened to the sound you produced from one of the empty
cans of your makeshift telephone?
2. Did the sound you produce travel from one end to the other?
3. Try to shorten the long string and talk once again with one of your family
members, how did the length of the string affect the quality of sound
produced?
4. Try to use different types and thickness of strings, what happened to the
sound produced if you used different types and thickness of string?
5. What components or material/s of your gadget affect the transfer of
sounds you produced in your makeshift telephone?
B. Watch more about the different transformations of energy on the LinK

answer sheet.
Directions: Complete the paragraph by writing the equivalent word or group
of words in each diagram presented. Write your complete paragraph/answer
on your answer sheet.
