The learners demonstrate understanding of ways of sorting materials and describing them as solid,
CONTENT liquid or gas based on observable properties.

or gas.

Classify common solids as soft and

hard. (e.g. cotton, cloth, towel,
Day 7
wood, stone, etc.)

Classify common solids as heavy

and light (e.g. cotton, cake, rock,
Day 8
wood, etc.)

Classify common liquids as

fragrant, odorless, or with foul odor
(water, vinegar, perfume, oil,
alcohol, shampoo, etc)
Day 9
Classify common liquids according
to ease of flow (water, vinegar, shampoo, soy
sauce, oil, lotion, syrup, etc.)

Appreciate gases based on its properties.

Day 10 Examples (balloon, tire, LPG, Oxygen tank,
bubbles, etc.)
Week 3-5

Day 1 Identify and describe change in
 materials before and after heating
(ex. candles and crayons)

Cut and paste pictures of materials that

Day 2
undergo change from solid to liquid.
Identify and describe change in
materials before and after freezing
Day 3
(water, ice candy and juice)

Illustrate examples of materials that

Day 4
undergo change from liquid to solid.
Identify and describe change in
materials before and after heating
Day 5
(ex. water and oil)

Identify and describe the change in

materials before and after allowing
Day 6 to stand at room temperature (ex.
alcohol and acetone)

Give examples of materials that

Day 7
undergo change from liquid to gas.
Identify and describe the change in
materials before and after allowing
Day 8 to stand at room temperature (ex.
moth balls and air freshener)

Give examples of materials that

Day 9
undergo change from solid to gas.
Detect changes in some solids
Day 10 when heated

Examine the changes in some

Day 11 liquids when frozen
 Explain the different changes on
Day 12 materials as affected by temperature

Cite household and community activities

Day 13 which are dependent on the changes on
materials based on temperature changes
Observe and describe how an ice/ice
Day 14 cream/ice candy changes from solid to
liquid due to change in temperature.
Perform a simple activity at home which
involves change on materials due to
Day 15
temperature. (e.g. ice candy making, melting
of candle, etc.)
