Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

Welcome to the Science – Grade Three Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on

Classifying Materials on its Properties: Liquid!

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators both
from public and private institutions to assist you, the teacher or facilitator in helping
the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum while overcoming
their personal, social, and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also aims to help
learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into consideration their
needs and circumstances.

As a facilitator, you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module.
You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to manage
their own learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

For the learner:

Welcome to the Mathematics 7 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on

 Lesson
Classifying Materials on
1 its Properties: Liquid

Learning Goals:
• Describe materials as liquid;
• Identify properties of liquid; and
• Classify materials as liquid based on its characteristics

What’s In
Name at least three examples of solid. Write its property and characteristics.

SOLID PROPERTY SHAPE SIZE COLOR TEXTURE

What’s New

Activity 1
Let us find out the characteristics of liquid.
Prepare the following materials:
1 empty drinking glass, 1 empty small mineral bottle, 1 empty coffee mug ,
water, catsup
Then, do the following:
1. Fill the bottle with water. Observe the flow of the water and its shape
when poured into the bottle.
2. Pour the catsup into the glass. Observe the flow of the catsup and its
shape when poured into the drinking glass.
3. From the bottle, pour the water into the coffee mug. Observe the
shape of the water now.

8
 4. Finally, pour the water back into the original bottle. Observe the
amount of water and compare it to the amount of water in the original
bottle.
Write your observations.
1. What is the shape of the water in the bottle?
_____________________________________________________________________
2. How does the water flow?
_____________________________________________________________________
3. What is the shape of the catsup in the drinking glass?
_____________________________________________________________________
4. How does the catsup flow?
_____________________________________________________________________
5. What is the shape of water in the coffee mug?
_____________________________________________________________________
6. Did the amount of water remain the same?
_____________________________________________________________________
7. Does the water have a definite volume?
_____________________________________________________________________

What is It

Liquid is everywhere. In fact almost 75 percent of the surface of

the earth is liquid water.

Liquid
Liquid is a state of matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape
It takes the shape of its container
Molecules in liquids are farther apart.
It always move, roll, silde or bump each other reasons why it can
change its shape.
Examples: juice, water, fresh milk, alcohol, oil, glue, shampoo
Other characteristics of liquids:
1. Liquids take up definite amount of space.
2. Liquids expand when heated and contract when cooled.
3. Liquids may dissolve some solids. When sugar is placed in water, it melts or
dissolves.
4. Some liquids like water, flow easily. Other liquids like oil flow very slowly. Liquids that
flow very slowly are described as viscous.
Viscosity a property which is described as the resistance of liquid to flow.
the molecules are strongly attached to each other
