Directions: Get a piece of short bond paper. Cut it into half. Then continue to cut in half until
you reach the smallest possible sheet of paper.
Question:
1. How small was the paper that you were able to obtain?
2. With the smallest paper that you were able to obtain, do you think it’s the same
paper you had before cutting it?

and practicing new skills
#1 (EXPLORE) Materials:
¼ cup refined sugar 1 measuring cup 1 dropper
1 cup distilled / clean tap water 1 pc. transparent bottle 1 stirrer
1 pc. 100mL graduated cylinder food coloring (B / R / G)

Procedures:

1. Using a clean and dry graduated cylinder, pour sugar until the 20mL mark of the
graduated cylinder.
2. Transfer the measured sugar into a 250mL beaker or a transparent bottle.
3. Measure 50mL of distilled or clean tap water using graduated cylinder.
4. Add 50mL water to the sugar and mix thoroughly until all the sugar dissolves.
(CAUTION: Do not taste anything in the laboratory unless specifically told to do so
by your teacher.)
5. Transfer the sugar mixture into a graduated cylinder.
6. Pour one cup of tap water into a transparent glass bottle.
7. Add one some drop of food coloring slowly along the side of the transparent bottle.
8. Set aside the bottle with food coloring in a locker or corner of our room without
disturbing the setup. Describe the appearance when you left the bottle the previous
day.
Guide Questions:
1. What is the taste of the resulting mixture?
2. Think about sugar and water as made up of tiny particles. With your groupmates,
discuss and give your reason/s for the observations you made in Q1. You may draw
illustrations to further explain your reason/s.
3. What is the volume of the sugar and water mixture?
4. Is the volume of the resulting sugar mixture equal, more than or less than the sum
(20mL + 50mL water) of the volumes of the unmixed sugar and water?
5. What happens to the food coloring dropped in the bottle containing water? Write all
your observations in your activity paper.
6. Think about food coloring and water as made up of tiny particles. With your
groupmates, discuss and give your reason/s for the observations you made in Q1.
You may draw illustrations to further explain your reason/s.
E. Discussing new concepts
and practicing new skills --------
#2 (EXPLORE)
F. Developing mastery
(leads to Formative The students shall present their output from the experiment they performed and explain their
Assessment 3) work.
(EXPLAIN)
Relate the picture shown to the Particle Nature of Matter

G. Finding practical
applications of concepts
and skills in daily living
(ELABORATE)

H. Making generalizations Activity: 10 Word Memoirs

and abstractions about
the lesson
Direction: Each group will construct a statement that composes of ten (10) words that explain
(ELABORATE) what they’ve learned.
I. Evaluating learning Directions: Read the questions carefully. Select and write your answer on a ¼ sheet of
(EVALUATE) paper.

a. Atom is indestructible.
b. Atom is indivisible.
c. Atom is still consists of smaller particles.
d. Atom can be seen under the high – powered light microscopes.

2. Why do you think the volume of the mixture of coffee and water is less
than the sum of the volumes of unmixed coffee and water?
a. The water is made of tiny particles with no spaces between them.
b. Coffee is made up of molecules bigger than the molecules of
Water.
c. The water molecules could not fit in the spaces between coffee
molecules.
d. The coffee molecules combined with the water molecules.

3. In the mixture of sugar and water, sugar is still present though you cannot
see sugar anymore. Why is this so?
a. The water is made of tiny particles with little spaces between them.
b. Sugar is made up of molecules smaller than the molecules of water
c. The water molecules could fit in the spaces between sugar
molecules or vice versa
