(May be spread out across a week)
Review of the Previous Lesson/s
or Presenting New Lesson PICTURE ANALYSIS
The teacher shows pictures to the students. The students classify the pictures shown if Matter or not.
Establishing a Purpose for the New
Lesson
The students simulate using PET Simulation entitled “State of Matter Basics”.
Presenting Examples/ Instances of
the New Lesson
The teacher asks the students the following questions:
1. What will happen to the particles if you add heat?
2. What will happen to the particles if you remove /lessen the heat?
2. Discussion of New Concept # 1
INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING
Differentiate the properties of solids, liquids, and gases based on the particle nature of matter.
Discussion of New Concept # 2
INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING
Explains the duality of phases of matter.
Developing Mastery Leading for
Formative Assessment COLLABORATIVE LEARNING & INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING
The students perform an experiment that shows how water behaves in different states of matter.
Finding Practical Applications of
concepts and Skills in Daily Living PICTURE ANALYSIS
Show a picture of Water Cycle. Ask students to identify all the phases involve in the water cycle.
Making Generalization/Abstraction
About the Lesson Summarize the topic through answering the teacher’s questions.
