Teaching and learning activities

Remark

A few matches. One put inside a plastic and one are left freely.

Teacher doing a demonstration in front. Both of the matches are ut into running tap water. Then both are tested by trying to lit up both matches. The one left freely: does not lite up because it is wet. The one that put inside a plastic bag: can lite up because it does not wet.

Science Process Skills:

Observing, communicating

Eliciting of ideas (10 minutes)

Some object can absorb water; for example: a. b. c. d. e. Table cloth Tissue paper Old newspaper / paper Sponge Cotton wool

Pupils will be given a worksheet, which included list of object and a table of object that can absorb water and object that cannot absorb water. Pupils are asks to predict and classify object according to the table given.

Science Process Skills:

Making inference,
Teaching and Learning Aid:

Mahjong paper and marker

Some object cannot absorb water for example: a. Plastic

b. c. d. e.
Restructuring of ideas (20 minutes)

Rubber band Coin Pebble Zinc Pupils carry out simple experiments. They are given a basin of water, rocks, plastic wrapper, pieces of table cloth,balloon,tissuepaper, old newspaper. Arrange the object in an increasing order according to the least absorbent to the most absorbent. Use and handle science apparatus and substances carefully.
Teaching and learning aids: a set of experiment Science Process Skills:

Pupil will understand which obejeect absorb water and which object is not absorbing water. After the experiment, teacher will discuss with pupils on their predicting answer and the tested answers.

Interpreting data, Observing, experimenting

Thinking skills:

Analysing
Manipulative skills:

material for each group.

Application of ideas ( 20 minutes)

The table cloth is made of cotton wool. Cotton wool can absorb water. That is why, table cloth can absorb water. Raincoat and umbrella is made from plastic(PVC), that is why they cannot absorb water.

Teacher asks pupil what they are used to dry up the table if the table is wet? Why? Answer: table cloth. Because table cloth can absorb water. Teacher shows 2 object that are an umbrella and a raincoat. What is the function of umbrella and raincoat? Umbrella: To protect ourselves during sunny days or rainy days. Raincoat: To be protect ourselves from wet during rainy days especially for those who are using motorbike.

Science Process Skills: Teaching and learning aids:

Umbrella, raincoat, a tissue that still sealed.

Closure ( 5 minutes)

Q & A: Both of object that can absorb water and cannot absorb water are important to human. We cant live Does both abject can absorb water and cannot absorb water important Science Process Skills &Thinking skills:

without both of it.

to us? Yes, because both are related and interdependant with human live.

Grouping and classifying,

SA & NV:

Being thankful to God appreciating the contribution of science and technology.
