I. Objectives
a. Content Standard The learners demonstrate understanding of ways of sorting materials
and describing them as solid, liquid or gas based on observable
properties .
b. Performance Standard The learners should be able to group common objects found at home
and in school according to solids, liquids and gas.
c. Learning Competency Classify objects and materials as solid, liquid, and gas based on some
observable characteristics.
II. Subject Matter
a. Topic Solid, Liquid and Gas
b. Science Processes Observing, Classifying, Predicting, Experimenting
c. Materials •Rock, Water, Baloon, Cardboard

III. LEARNING ACTIVITIES
A. ENGAGE Show students a rock, a cup of water, and a balloon filled with air.
•What do you notice about these objects? How are they different?
•What do you think happens to the air in the balloon if you squeeze
it?
Introduce the idea of states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Explain
that these are the three main ways that matter exists in our world.
You can use the objects you showed to demonstrate the differences.

B. EXPLORE Divide students into Three groups.
Provide each group with a rock, a container of water, a balloon, and a
piece of cardboard.
Instruct each group to explore the materials by:
•Observing their shape and size
•Trying to change their shape (squash the rock, pour the water,
squeeze the balloon)
•Observing what happens when they try to change the shape
Sorting Activity: Provide students with a set of cards showing
pictures of various objects (e.g., a book, a puddle, clouds). Ask
students to sort the cards into three piles: solid, liquid, and gas.
C. EXPLAIN SOLIDS: Let's talk about the rock. What happens when you try to
squeeze it? It doesn't change shape, right? It stays hard and keeps
the same shape. That's because solids are like tiny building blocks
that are packed tightly together. They don't move around much, so
they keep their shape.
Examples of SOLIDS:
Rocks: Rocks are a classic example of a solid. They have a definite
shape and volume and are hard to compress.
Ice: Ice is another solid. It's the frozen form of water.
Wood: Wood is a solid that can be cut and shaped.
Metal: Metals are solids that are good conductors of heat and
electricity.
Plastic: Plastic is a solid that can be molded into different shapes.

LIQUIDS: Now, think about the water. What happened when you
poured it? It flowed and took the shape of the container, didn't it?
Liquids are like tiny marbles that are close together but can slide past
each other. That's why liquids can flow and take the shape of their
container.
Examples of LIQUIDS:
Water: Water is the most common liquid on Earth. It flows and takes
the shape of its container.
Juice: Juice is a liquid that is made from fruit.
Oil: Oil is a liquid that is used for cooking and fuel.
Milk: Milk is a liquid that is a good source of calcium.
Honey: Honey is a thick liquid that is made by bees.
GASES: The air in the balloon is a gas. What happened when you
squeezed the balloon? The air moved and filled the whole balloon,
right? Gases are like tiny bouncy balls that are far apart and move
around freely. That's why they can spread out to fill a whole space.
Examples of GASES:
Air: Air is a mixture of gases, including nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon
dioxide. It's all around us.
Helium: Helium is a gas that is used to fill balloons.
Oxygen: Oxygen is a gas that we breathe.
Carbon dioxide: Carbon dioxide is a gas that is released when we
breathe out.
Water vapor: Water vapor is the gaseous form of water.

D. ELABORATE "SORT YOUR OBJECTS"
Return to the previous group and give each group pictures of objects
that they will sort into solid, liquid and gas. Each correct placement of
the pictures is equal to one point.
