Review: Recall previous lesson:
 Light is a form of energy that allows us to see the world. The main
source of light on Earth is the sun.
Light travels in a straight line when going to a single medium or any
substance through which a light wave can travel.
Light travels quickly in air but it travels slowly in water or glass.
Luminous objects- objects that can produce light.
Non- luminous objects- objects cannot produce light.
Light can be blocked by opaque objects and can pass through
transparent and translucent objects.

Let the students read the objectives.

At the end of the topic the learner;
1. Describe how sound travels in solid, liquid and gas materials
2. Infer that sound travels through different media.
3. Show through various activities that sound has the ability to
B. Establishing a purpose for the travel through solids, liquids and gases.
lesson
Let the students recite the following phrases (2x) while putting
the right hand on the neck near the throat.
Learning Science is fun.
Science is for everyone.
Come! Let’s learn Science.

C. Presenting Activity 1
Examples/Instances of the New
Direction:
Lesson
1.Get a plastic ruler and place one end to the edge of the table by
holding it down firmly.
2. Push or press down the free end then release it suddenly. Observe
what happens when you release the free end of the ruler. Write your
observation in your Science notebook.
3. Hold the ruler while it is in motion. Repeat #2 and 3 several times (at
least 3 times). Observe what happens.
Ask the following questions:
1. What happened to the ruler when you suddenly released it?
2. How do you describe the movement of the ruler?
3. Did you hear a sound?
4. Did the sound coming from the moving ruler suddenly stop
when you hold it? When you released it again?
Activity 2
Direction; Ask two (2) students to hold both edges of a jumping rope.
Stand as possible with each other without stretching the rope too
tightly. Create a wavy movement with the rope while the other students
clap their hands. The wavy movement of the rope must go with the
 flow of the students clapping, instructing students to slow their clapping
or make it faster. Stop moving the rope when clapping stops. Observe
the different waves created . Record your observations
Ask the following question;
1. How do you describe the motion of the rope when the clapping
gets slow?Draw the wave produced.
2. How do you describe the motion of the rope when clapping
gets fast? Draw the wave produced.
3. Are waves still produced when the rope stopped moving? Draw
the rope when stopped moving.

When objects make sound, they move back and forth. This movement
is called vibration. A sound wave travels at different speeds through
different media. As it travels, sound waves are created in response to
a variation and how easily they move back to their original position.
D. Discussing New Concepts and Another cause is how strongly the particles are attached or attracted to
Practicing New Skills #1 each other.
In activity 2, the waves produced by the rope are compared to the
sound waves of a vibrating object. When a vibration is slow, slow
moving waves are produced. When the vibration is fast, a fast moving
wave is produced until such time that the vibration stops.

E. Discussing New Concepts a Group Activity 1 ( Travel of sound through Air)

Practicing New Skills #2
Direction;
1. Begin by testing how well you can hear sounds in the air. Stand ½
meter away from your group mates and speak one word in a normal
voice.
2. Record the word you said. The listener will also record what she or
he heard. You will compare results with your partner at the end of the
experiment.
3. Move to a distance of one meter and say different words at the
same volume, record the word in every move you said ( following the
given data table) while your partner records the word she or he heard
in every distance.
4. Do the steps until you reach the 20 meters.

Group Activity 2 ( Travel of sound through solid materials)

materials- 2 tin cans, yarn, scissors
Direction;
Making a tin can telephone
1. In the provided tin can, insert one end of the string into one of
the tin can.
2. Tie a knot at the end of the string so it doesn’t slip out. Insert
the other end of the string into the other tin can, and also tie the
knot at the end of the string so it doesn’t slip out.
 Activity
1. Stand one meter apart from your partner.
2. Pull string until it is tight between the two cans . The string must
come out of both cans. The open part of the can must serve as
receivers where both pairs will speak to and listen with.
3. Speak one word into the open part of the tin can, have your
partner listen by placing the open part of the can against his or
her ear . Record the word you said on the corresponding
column.
4. Move to a distance of the three meters and repeat steps #3.
5. Compare the results you have recorded.
Group Activity 3 (Travel of sound through water)
Materials; small pail half filled with water, two pieces of medium size of
stone.
Direction
1. Tap two medium sized stones in a pail half with water.
2. Let your partner listen and record the number of
tapping of stone that you made.
3. Instruct your partner to move to a distance of 3 meters
and then 6 meters and repeat the 1 and 2 steps.

Remind the students;

In every group activity every member must cooperate and help each
F. Values Integration other to accomplish the given task. It is also important to obey or follow
the rules or direction in every activity to accomplish the activity right.

G. Developing Mastery (Leads to Activity

Formative Assessment 3)
Direction: From the group activity ( 1,2,3) answer the following
questions.
1. Do you have the same lists of words with your partner? If not,
what do you think might have caused the difference? In activity
3, do you have the same recorded number 0f stone tapped
under the pail of water?
2. In which activity do you think is it easy for you to hear the words
clearly , in air or solid?
3. In which material\place do you find it to speak very easily? find
it easy to listen to the words being said?or sound being
produced?
4. How does the type of materials/place affect our hearing?
5. Refer to your record. At what distance do you think the words
said are easily heard in Activity 1?
and Activity 2?
 6. How does the distance of the speaker and the listener affect
the clear hearing and understanding of words? sound of the
tapping stone?

Ask following question:

H. Finding Practical Application
and Skills in Daily Living 1. In your daily life, what do you think is important when
communicating as a speaker and as a listener?

Remember
The sound travels through solids and the vibration of the particles
occurs fast. Sound travels through air very slowly, particles in gas are
not attracted to each other. Sound waves tend to travel more slowly
I. Making Generalization and in liquid than in most solid, particles in liquids are not attracted as
Abstraction About the Lessons strongly to each other as in those solid particles.
In the different activities we could conclude that sound travels
differently in different types of materials solid, liquid and gas.

b. Sound travel faster in air than in liquids
c. Sound travels faster in solids than in air.
d. The travel of sound is not affected by the medium through which it

Activity B Answer the questions briefly.
1. A bird perching on the tree hears the chirping of another bird. A
whale hears the songlike sound made by another whale
swimming near it. Which sound travels faster, the bird’s
chirping or the whale’s singing? Explain how you decided.
