- Opening Prayer
- Greetings
- Classroom Management
- Checking of Attendance
b. Review
- The teacher will ask the students about the previous lesson.
B. Developmental Activity
a. Motivation
- The teacher will just simply ask the students about what are the
changes the students have noticed within themselves? And how do
they cope up with these changes.
b. Lesson Proper

“CHANGES IN MATTER”

Changes in matter occur all the time in the natural world – iron rusts, leaves on trees
change in color, wood undergoes combustion in a forest fire, food in the stomach gets
digested, rain dissolves limestone rocks, and dead bodies decompose.
Since before the beginning of the recorded history, natural substances have been
purposely changed into new products. The changes brought by humans for their own use
include conversion of natural clays into pottery, limestone rocks into building materials, and
soft metals like silver and gold into jewelry pieces. There are actually two types of changes
that matter may go through – physical and chemical.
 TYPES OF CHANGES IN MATTER
1. PHYSICAL CHANGE
– a change in the state or form of a substance without changing
the identity of the substance.
– occurs when the composition of the substance in question is not
altered in the process.
– no new substance is created, although the matter may take
different form.
Examples: crushing a can, melting an ice cube, breaking glass, folding paper,
cutting hair, chopping wood, etc..
Change in state is brought about by absorbing or releasing an amount of energy. When
heat is added, the particles of matter move faster and farther from each other. When heat is
removed, the kinetic energy is lessened and the particles are attracted to each other.
The physical changes matter undergoes are as follows:
a. Melting – is the physical change of a solid to a liquid
by the addition of energy as heat.
b. Freezing – is the change of state in which a liquid
becomes a solid as heat is removed.
c. Evaporation – is the change of substance from a
liquid to a gas.
d. Condensation – is the change of state from a gas
to
a liquid.
e. Sublimation – is the process in which a solid
change
directly into a gas.
f. Deposition – is the process in which a gas change
directly to a solid.

Other examples of physical change are sharpening of a metal knife, mowing a grass,
subliming of dry ice, tearing a tin foil, inflating a volleyball, and cloud formation in the sky.
2. CHEMICAL CHANGE
– It involves the production of a new substance.
– The new substance formed is entirely different from the original
substance.
– The product of chemical change cannot be brought back to its
original state by ordinary means.
– The following are pieces of evidences of a chemical change –
change in color, odor or taste and release of energy.
Examples:
– a green banana ripens to become yellow and sweet, a chemical
reaction changes starch to sugar.
– when a meat is barbecued, the color, taste, and texture change
to become an appetizing and edible food.
– when a fresh egg is beaten and fried with a small amount of oil,
the resulting scrambled egg is yellow and fluffy that appears
different from the fresh egg.
– An iron metal when exposed to moist air, is chemically converted
to a red-brown compound called rust.
Other examples of chemical change are electrolysis of water (It involves the
conversion of water to hydrogen and oxygen.
 c. Activity Proper
The students will be divided into two groups. Each group will conduct
different activities and will discuss their outputs.

C. Post-developmental Activity
– Each group will present their outputs.

IV. GENERALIZATION
Let the students share the changes they have noticed within themselves and let
them summarize their understanding with the topic discussed – Changes in Matter.
If there are misconceptions, immediately discuss and correct them to attain the goal
of effective learning.

V. APPLICATION
The teacher will flash a picture with a matter in it that undergone a noticeable
change. They will identify it as Physical or Chemical Change. Moreover, they will
recognize the importance of understanding what change is and how to adapt with the
changes around them.

VI. EVALUATION

A. IDENTIFICATION: Identify the change in phase being described in the picture.

Choose the correct answer from the box and write it on your paper.

CONDENSATION
DEPOSITION
EVAPORATION
FREEZING
MELTING
SUBLIMATION
 B. CLASSIFICATION: Classify the following changes in matter as physical or
chemical. Write the correct answer in its proper heading.

Frying an egg Cutting a paper Melted ice cream

Fireworks Breaking of glass Baking a cake

C. ESSAY (5 points)
1. Which change in yourself, either physical, emotional, spiritual, mental, or
social, do you find a good one? Explain concisely why you said so.

V. ASSIGNMENT
1. What do you think is the effect of temperature to phase changes in Matter?
