I. CURRICULUM CONTENT, STANDARDS, AND LESSON COMPETENCIES

A. Content Standards The learners learn that the particle model explains the properties of
solids, liquids, and gases and the processes involved in changes of state.

B. Performance Standards By the end of the Quarter, learners recognize that scientists use models
to describe the particle model of matter. They use diagrams and
illustrations to explain the motion and arrangement of particles during
changes of state. They demonstrate an understanding of the role of
solute and solvent in solutions and the factors that affect solubility.
They demonstrate skills to plan and conduct a scientific investigation
making accurate measurements and using standard units.
C. Learning Competencies The learners should be able to recognize that scientists use models to
explain phenomena that cannot be easily seen or detected.
D. Learning Objectives At the end of the lesson, the learners should be able to:

a. identify the different models used by the scientists to explain

phenomena that cannot be easily seen or detected.
b. describe the different models used by the scientists to explain
phenomena that cannot be easily seen or detected.

Based on opinion
Jumping to conclusion
Always the same answer
Kept as a secret knowledge

Ask the learners if there are words that are not familiar and what they
think they could mean. Keep in mind what misconceptions they may
harbor and have them realize what the nature of science is by citing
examples on how scientists “do” science.

APK 2:
Have the learners guess what each picture shows. The learners will
arrange each picture puzzle. After arranging the puzzle, the learners will
answer the guide questions below.

Picture 1

Answer: globe

Picture 2

Answer: stuffed toy

Answer: Map

Once the learners have figured out what these photos are, ask them the
following questions?

1. What do these pictures have in common?

2. What do we use them for?
3. Which one do we use if we want to find where a country is?
4. Which should we use to identify the parts of a mammal?
5. What do these objects represent and what do we use them for?

Have the learners state what has been highlighted in the two tasks –
the nature of science and the use of models in “doing” science.
Lesson Purpose/Intention With their prior knowledge activated, ask the learners to complete the
lesson purpose for this session:

The lesson is all about the ________used by the __________to

___________phenomena that cannot be easily seen or detected.

Answer key:
models, scientists, explain
Lesson Language Practice The learners will be given an article to read, and they will be asked to
mark any unfamiliar terms, phrases, or sentences as well as describe
any that may be confusing.

(See attached LAS 1)

Activity 1: Close Reading of an Article on the Use of Models

The learners will perform a close reading activity as they silently go over
the material for five minutes, encircle the words that are not familiar to
them, and underline terms they think are important.

Then, the teacher will facilitate a short discussion on unfamiliar terms,

phrases, or sentences identified in an operational manner.
During/Lesson Proper
Reading the Key Idea/Stem ACTIVITY 2: MODELS IN SCIENCE

The teacher will prepare a video on the different kinds of models used
in science, their descriptions, benefits, and limitations to be watched by
the learners.

VIDEO LINK:
Scientific Models
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGauq57P5Bg&t=66s

As they watch the video, the learners will work as a group in completing
the graphic organizer in LAS Activity 2. The teacher will direct the
learners to consider the graphic organizer that will guide them in
watching the video.

Pre-Watching Questions:
The teacher will pose the following questions to the learners:

1. Can you name some of the models used in science that you are
familiar with?
2. What benefits can we get from using these models?

The teacher will take note of the answers and then play the video.
Developing Understanding Afterward, the learners will be given 10 minutes to discuss what they
of the Key Idea/Stem have watched and to complete the graphic organizer provided.

After 5 minutes, the teacher will call on each group to share their
answers on each part of the organizer (for example Group 1, on the first
part). Invite the other groups to comment on the answers shared by
each group by citing as a reference what they have written on their
own graphic organizers.

Once they have completed LAS Activity No. 2, the learners participate in
a discussion facilitated by the teacher.
The teacher will ask the learners the following questions to develop
understanding:
1. What examples of models have we seen from the video?
2. Can you cite other examples for the following:
a. Physical model
b. Mathematical model
c. Conceptual model
3. Based on the discussion, why do you think scientists use
models?
Deepening Understanding The learners are then given time to refine the graphic organizers that
of the Key Idea/Stem they have worked on as a group.
The teacher will then present the following scenarios and ask the
learners what they think is the most suitable type of model to be used:

1. Your classmate would like to show how the blood flows

through the organ.
2. You have been tasked to design a bridge that can withstand a
certain weight.

During the pandemic, scientists would like to describe how COVID-19
spreads by taking into account the infection rates, recovery times, and
population movement.
After/Post-Lesson Proper
Making Generalizations Ask the learners to complete LAS Activity 3: The 3 Kinds of Models
and Abstractions

Evaluating Learning Written Task

The learners will be given a set of questions that will serve as a
formative assessment.

Read the questions carefully. Write your answers on a separate sheet

of paper.

A. For each of the following scenarios, describe the model that might be
suitable and briefly explain why:

1. A rocket scientist is designing a rocket launch. What model can he

use to calculate the trajectory of the rocket, the amount of fuel needed,
and the forces acting on a rocket?

Answer: a mathematical model to incorporate the factors

2. Your teacher wants you to describe the water cycle in class. Which
type of model can you use to explain this?

Answer: a conceptual model to explain the cycle

3.Suppose you want to help your friend figure out which of his running
shoes helps him run the fastest. What model will help you?

Answer: a mathematical model to help predict his run times based on

his shoes

B. Why do scientists use models?

Sample answers:

Since science must be communicated, models help represent complex

concepts.

Since science is evidence-based, models make predictions and test

hypotheses.

Since science explains phenomena, models help visualize complex

concepts, systems, and processes.

Additional Activities for Answer the question below in your notebook.

Application or Remediation
(if applicable) Did this lesson help you better identify the models scientists use to
explain phenomena that cannot be easily seen or detected? If yes,
how?
