Unit 4: Matter
(Picture of Alon and Luna in the beach with Luna swimming, Alon making a sand castle and the professor flying a kite)

Why can we make a sand castle and not a water castle? Why cant we see the wind that flies our kites? How do the things around us differ? How are they the same?

Lesson 1: Solids

(Picture of Luna helping Alon to stand up after he bumped his head at the door) Luna: What happened Alon? Does it hurt? Alon: Yes, the door was so hard and heavy. I slipped that is why I hit my head. Luna: I also noticed that the floor is newly cleaned. It is shiny and very smooth. Alon: Oh! Maybe that is why it is very slippery

Why does it hurt when we hit a door? Why do some objects have shapes and others dont? What are solids?

Explanation
( Picture of Alon and Luna in a toy store)

Solid is one state of matter. You can describe it in so many ways like Solid have shapes
(Picture of a glass, plate, and pencil)

Try to put the pencil on the plate. What happened? Now try putting the pencil inside the glass. Did it change its shape? S Solids have definite shape. It means that it will have the same shape where ever you put it in.
(Picture of a school bags full of books and school materials that Alon cant close any more)

Solids take up space


Luna: Alon, I think its time to clean your bag. Youre going to break your bag if you will force all your books inside Maria Francessa L. Abat Alon: Your right. I think I better live some my toys behind.

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

Why cant Alon close his bag anymore? What are inside? What do you think will happen if Alon will take out his toys from the bag? Solids take up space. No two solids can share the same space at the same time. That is why the bag cant be closed because Alons toys are taking so much space that his school things should have taken up. Solids have mass and weight
( Continuation of the picture above) Alon: Luna, I think your bag is very heavy, you want me to help you? Luna: Thanks Alon, we have so many books to bring today plus my friend is borrowing all my Harry Potter books. Alon: All seven of them! Wow no wonder you look as if youre falling. Let me amount of matter Mass is thehelp you out) in an object. The more mass an object has, the heavier it will

be. Just like Lunas bag, she has so many books inside. The heavier an object is the more weight it has. Weight is how much the earth is pulling an object. The more mass an object has, the more earth will pull it. Here are some more ways we can describe solids Solids have temperature
(Luna and Alon eating) Luna; Hmm I love this mango flavored ice cream. Its so cold. Maria Francessa L. Abat Alon: ouch! This soup is so hot it hurt my toungue

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

By means of our sense of touch we can describe if a solid is either hot or cold. Temperature can be measured by means of degrees or celsiu. The higher the degrees the hotter the object is. Solids have different textures
(Luna and Alon washing the dishes) Luna; Look Alon, I love the feel of this plate, it is so smooth to touch. Alon: Next time I will be the one to wash of the soap, this scotch brite is so rough, no wonder all the left over on Solids differ in texture. are removed. those plates Your sense of touch can help you describe the texture of solids.

Solids can have different texture from one another, cotton or glass may feel smooth to the touch if we feel it. Sand and stones may feel rough on our sense of touch. The peeling of guyabano may feel rough or course to our touch. A lot of flowers and some leaves feel soft to touch. Solids have different sizes
(Luna and Alon still washing the dishes) Luna: Alon, I think you should help to wash this very big cooking pot lolo used to cook Laing into Alon: Wow! It is big. I clean that while you clean these small spoons over here

Solids differ in sizes. Some solids like table or chair are big. Some solids like nails and coins are small. Sizes depend upon how the solid is created. There could be a big glass or a small glass. A big bag or a small bag. Sizes can change on how it is created. Solids have different colors
(Alon and Luna is shoping with mom Alon: Luna, can you please choose a pair of shoes now. Maria Francessa L. Abat Luna: I cant decide, will it be red? Pink? Or the blue one? Hmm.. Mom: You will be pretty in any color dear.

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

Solids differ in its color. They can have the same size or shape and they can have different color. Some flowers are colorful; they can look bright or pale. These colors are seen through our eyes and changes from one solid to another. Exploration Solid Observe What you will need 1. Pencil 2. Paper What to do 1. Find a partner.

(Picture of Alon holding a glass of water and spilled it on the floor) Luna: What happened?Why did it spill? Alon: I lost balance, and the water spilled from the glass. Luna: Why do you think the water didnt stay in place inside the glass? Alon: Oh! Maybe because it only follows the movement of the glass and when the glass moved, it moved too, but then it moved to big that it went over the glass rim.

What are Liquiids? Why does liquids follow the shape of its container?

Elaboration

Maria Francessa L. Abat

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

There is a type of matter that follows or takes the shape of its container. This type of matter is called Liquid.

(Picture of Alon and Luna in the beverage section in the department store)

Can you describe the shape or size of liquids in each container? One popular example of liquid is water. If you put water in any container it will be shaped based on the shape of its container, if you put it in a circle shaped container, the water will be shaped circle. Liquid in bottles takes the shape of the bottle. A liquid flows when poured into a container. It does not have a shape of its own. It takes the shape of its container.

Describing Liquids

(Picture of the crow putting pebbles is a pitcher which is half full of water.)

What do you think the crow is doing in the picture? What will happen if the crow puts more pebble sin the pitcher with water? What do you think is in the mind of the crow?

Elaboration Liquids occupy space. Do you recall the crow in the picture? What is it trying to do? Liquids like solids occupy space too. If the crow will continue putting pebbles in the pitcher, the water in the pitcher will rise until the rim of the pitcher and it will overflow. This is because the water in the bottom of the pitcher moves up to occupy the space above because the pebbles are in the bottom of the pitcher already. They cannot be in the same place at the same time. The water spills over because the pebbles have taken its place at the bottom of the pitcher. Liquids have mass
(Picture of two bottles, the other is full the other is full).

Maria Francessa L. Abat

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

Looking at the picture above, which of the two bottles are heavier? The bottle in the left? Or in the right? The bottle with more liquid inside it is heavier, this is because it has weight and mass. Aside from these things there are also other things we should know about liquids. 1. Some liquids can be thick. Examples: ketchup, soup, honey 2. Liquids can have different tastes. Example: coffee (bitter), orange juice(sour), chocolate drink(sweet) 3. There are liquids that arent supposed to be tasted. Examples: gasoline, alcohol, perfume and others. Exploration To taste or not to taste? What you will need: 1. Sample of different liquids: Vinegar Soy sauce Alcohol Chocolate Perfume Juice 2.

Introduction Describing Gases


(Pictures of gases in different places, Wind blowing Balloons Inflating a Abat Maria Francessa L. tire A boy flying a kite

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

We move around a lot, and every movement we make we feel the air move around us. This air is called Gas. Can you touch air? Can you hold it in your hands? Can you feel Gas?
Picture of Alon blowing a Balloon and Luna playing with bubbles. Alon: whats inside this balloon? Luna: Ahmmm. I guess its the air you blow. Do you think its the same with the bubbles? Alon: I guess so, they both have gas inside and we cant see it.

Elaboration Gas is another kind of matter. We cannot hold or see it. The air we breathe is an example of gas, oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air are forms of gases that we breathe and are found in the air. Gases maybe odorless, so we cant tell its smell, It can also be colorless, thats why we cant see it, and tasteless, so we cannot tell if its sweet or salty. Gases cannot be seen at most times, but we can feel it, when the air moves we feel it as wind moving around us. Everything is surrounded by air, people, animal, plants and other things are surrounded by air. We breathe air for us to live. Living things on land live in a sea of gases, while living things that lives in sea also needs air, fishes also need air in order to breathe. They get the air from the water. They breathe in air through their gills.

Introduction Gas occupies space

(Picture of Gas in different container) Basketball Tire Empty bottle

What are the things in the picture? What is inside these objects?

Elaboration Air around us is gas. It is matter and it takes up space. It doesnt have a shape of its own like liquid it takes the shape of its container. If we look at an empty bottle, are we sure it is empty? Any other things in this earth, if its not filled with solid or liquid, it is filled with gas.

(Pictures of balloons of different sizes)

Maria Francessa L. Abat

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

If we fill a balloon with air, the more we blew it the balloon gets bigger and bigger. The air we blew inside the balloon occupies space and stretches the balloon and makes it bigger, It makes the balloon heavier too. This shows that gas also has weight and has mass. The more air is there in a container or in rthe space, the more is its mass. A basketball can hold more air than a balloon, so it has more mass. Therefore the basketball is heavier. We are surrounded by air. Everything around us has gas. Fishes in the sea can live because there is oxygen in the water.

Light let us see all the wonderful things around us. Without light, the whole world will be dark. We also need heat to cook food, dry up thing and give us warmth. We can get light and heat in many ways. The Sun
Picture of a clothesline with clothes under the sun

Our planets main source of light and heat is the sun. during the day, we receive light from the sun even if it is very far from us.

Electricity Picture of Alon and Luna reading a book using a lamp post Luna: Kuya, can we just turn on the florescent lamp so we can save electricity. Alon: Yes! Using two separate night lamps is not that energy friendly.

Maria Francessa L. Abat

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

At night, the sun is giving of light and heat in other parts of the world so we use electricity in order to have light. Electricity makes the television, radio and other appliances work. You may not see electricity but you can definitely feel it. If you want to see the actual electricity, try to look at a picture of a lightning.
Picture of a lightning storm

Lightning is electricity in the air. It happens in between clouds and usually strike tall objects like building and trees. Lightning is very dangerous, when there is a lightning storm happening remain inside of your home away from the windows. Dont use electrical appliance too. Burning Fuel
( picture of Alon and Lunas family having a barbeque)

Maria Francessa L. Abat

TX_ Science2_ Unit3_Orig

Before electricity was discovered, people use fuels for light and heat. We can use fossil fuels to run our cars and machines. Fossil fuels come from living things that lived millions of years ago. We can also use logs to build fire. Lights Not all lights are always there for us. There are objects that have their own light and other sources that has to borrow from something in order to give us light.
Picture of the sun and the moon

A very good example is the sun. The sun has its own light to give us. We call these things luminous. Luminous objects are objects that have their own light. Other examples of luminous things are fireflies and stars. They can store and give off light and heat. The best example of a Non- luminous object is the moon. It gives us light at night but it doesnt have its own light. It gets it light from the sun. The suns light would bounce on the moon that is why we can see it. Other examples of non- luminous objects are stone, paper and other things that has no light. Elaboration

Light travels in a straight path. If you block the light a shadow will be formed. The shadow will always be at the opposite of the source of light. Morning Picture of Luna with shadow during the day Afternoon Night

The nearer you are from the source of light, the bigger the shadow you will be able to make.

The only way we can see an object is that if a light will reach it. This is why we cant see things in the dark. The objects are still there but there is no light to reveal them.

3. What are the things that the magnet did not pull? 4. What are the things that were pulled by magnet? What materials are they made of? Magnets are made up of two poles, the north and the South Pole. Magnets generally attract things made up of metal. Magnets also cover the door of our refrigerator that is why it closes by itself. Different poles attract and like poles repel. Electricity
( picture of Luna reading a book in front of an electric fan and Alon playing a toy.)

When you a still a child, how many of your toys move by themselves? What is inside the toy that makes it move? Toys that move have batteries inside, which provide electricity that makes them move. The small amount of electricity in the battery makes the motor inside the toy run. Electrical force can make some household tools and appliances move. How is electricity stored in a battery? A battery has components inside that stores electricity. These components are made up of earths elements such as carbon, lead and ionized water. Batteries containing lead are harmful to living things. Gravity

Picture of Luna and Alon playing toss ball. Alon: Luna, why cant our ball stay up there? Luna: Hmm.. I am also wondering the same thing kuya.

What is easier, you going up the stairs or you going down? Going down is easier because you have gravity to help you out. This is like the earths magnet. Everything that goes up will be pulled down by gravity. So when you go up, you are going against that pull so you will feel more tired and breathless. Other forces that helps object moves are Water
