ACTIVITY SHEET IN SCIENCE 6

WEEK 4-5

From your previous lesson, you have learned that there are forces that 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.

Sound energy
from vibrations of Light and heat Electricity runs these appliances Heat energy
guitar strings energy from sun (electric fan, television, and radio) produced by
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.

Complete the graphic organizer below. Apply the concepts you learned on the different forms of energy.
Learning Task 1: Complete the chart by writing the needed information inside the box. Copy and answer the graphic organizer on your answer sheet.

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.

Learning Task 2

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.

Questions: Makeshift telephone illustration

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?

Learning Task 3: Watch more about the different transformations of energy on the LinK https://youtu.be/BgZ-_IRIwWo and answer the following
activity on your 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.

The solar energy or energy coming from the (1) ________ enters

the Earth’s atmosphere through Electromagnetic (2)

___________. The sunlight is a form of (3) __________ energy that when

hits objects here on Earth transforms into (4) _________ energy or

thermal energy and increases the objects’ (5) ______________.

PERFORMANCE TASK 2 : Create a marketing strategy for a new product on electrical or light efficiency. Present it using short bond paper. Make
use of the rubric below.

Assessment Criteria Level of Proficiency

Legend: 3-Very Good; 2-Good; 1-Needs Improvement 3 2 1
1. Details of information given.
2. Organization of ideas.
3. Concepts and integration of lessons learned.
4. Materials used for the output.
 5. Presentation of output.

Energy is constantly changing from one type into another. This is happening around and throughout the universe.
This process of energy changing from one type to another is known as energy transformation or energy conversion. Whether the energy is
transferred or transformed, the total amount of energy doesn’t change and this is implicated in the Law of Conservation, which states that energy
cannot be created or destroyed.
Energy transfer is the movement of energy from one location to another.
Energy transformation is when energy changes from one form to another.
Many energy transformations are taking place constantly. Every transformation occurs everywhere every second of the day.

Remember that the different forms of energy transformation discussed in this lesson are:
 Sound energy is an energy produced through vibrations or hitting two objects.
 Heat energy or thermal energy is produced through continuous movement of molecules.
 Light energy is produced through electromagnetic waves.
 Electricity or electrical energy is produced when electrons of an atom move to another.
Learning Task 2: Answer the following questions. Write your explanations on your answer sheet.
1. Based on all your observations in our activities, what interpretation can you
give about utilization of electrical energy?
