Homework: Let the learners watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5TFJ-y8aVk on Separating Mixture through Hand Picking. Let the learners do the attached activities. Activity: The teacher will divide the class into three groups. Group 1 – Name each material/component shown in the mixture and tell whether the material can be separated through picking or not. (Attachment A) Group 2 – Given set of pictures, the group will identify the name of the materials/components of the mixtures and separate them from each other (Attachment B) Group 3 – Giving sets of mixtures out of the given sample materials (Attachment C) Giving of Instructions: 1. Each group will choose a leader and a reporter. 2. Each group will be given an activity card. 3. The activity card serves as your guide on the activity that you are going to perform. 4. All the members in the group must work as a team. 5. After the activity write the results of your activity in the manila paper to be reported by the reporter. The teacher will let the pupils report their work in front of the class. Analysis: The teacher asks the pupils the following questions: 1. For Group A, what are the materials found in the mixtures? (Ans. Beans and rice grains, different fruits) Will it be easy for us to separate them? (Ans. Yes) Can we separate them through picking? (Ans. Yes) 2. For Group B, what are the materials/components of the mixture? (Ans. pebbles chalk mongo seed candies marbles stones beans marshmallow) How did you separate them? (Ans. Through picking) 3. For Group C, what are the mixtures you came up with using the given materials? (Ans. corn and marshmallows, soybeans and stones, rice and mongo seeds) Can we separate them using picking or manual separation? (Ans. Yes) Abstraction: The teacher will discuss the concept. In everyday life, we use several mixtures and one need to separate useful components from the mixture. Thus, the separation of substances is performed by various methods like hand-picking. Mixtures are combinations of two or more substances not chemically bonded where each substance retains its chemical entity and properties. One of the techniques of separating mixtures is through picking. For instances, a mixture of grains and corn can be separated through picking by using our bare hands. When the components of a mixture are slightly larger in size, it is easier for us to pick and separate them. Direct the pupil’s attention to the PowerPoint Presentation. Application: Let the pupils give a particular situation in their houses especially in the kitchen where separation of mixtures through handpicking is being done. (Ans. When you want to separate rice grains from stones or pebbles before cooking.) C. Generalization: 1. What method of separating mixtures is being used when materials in a mixture are slightly larger in size? (Ans. Picking) 2. When do we use picking as a method of separating mixtures? (Ans. When we separate the components of a mixture that are slightly larger in size) 3. What are the examples of mixtures that can be separated through picking? (Ans. Sliced fruits, vegetables and fruit mix) 4. Why is separating of mixture through picking important? (Ans. It is important because it allows us to separate components of heterogeneous mixture and will help us identify each component from the other.) D.

Our lesson this morning deals with separating of dry mixtures through sifting or sieving. Dry mixtures can be separated through sifting or sieving. Sifting is defined as to pass through a sorting device like a screen to sort, separate the coarse from the fine particle, or to break up lumps, as o flour. Sieving is separating bigger dry mixtures such as sand and gravel. Sifting or sieving is another technique of separating mixtures. To separate the components of a dry mixture sifting is done. Sifting - is used to separate smaller solid particles from larger solid particles. Used to separate a dry mixture which contains substances of different sizes by passing it through a sieve, a device containing tiny holes. - For example, the mixture of different sized solid particles can be put into a container that has a screen material at the bottom with holes of certain size. - When the mixture is shaken, the smaller particles go through the screen leaving the larger particles in the container. - Cooks, for example, sift flour to get a smaller particle size for backing leaving larger particles of flour in the sifter above the screen. - Sand and gravel companies, for example, separate rocks into different sized particles for road building and other construction projects using this method. Application: Put a √ beside the mixtures that can be separated through picking. 1. Sliced fruits ________ 2. flour and sugar ________ (Ans. √) 3. beans and corn _______ 4. sand and gravel _______ (Ans. √) 5. salt and pepper _______ (Ans. √) Let the pupils give a particular situation in their houses especially in the kitchen where separation of mixtures through sieving/sifting is being done.

Yes) Let the learners watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AxxyAKTZ-g on Separating Mixture through Winnowing. Let the learners do the attached activities. This morning we are going to study about separating mixtures through “Winnowing” Activity: The teacher will divide the class into three groups. But before having the activity, present first the Standards for Science Simple Activity Group 1 – Observe how the person separates the materials using the process of winnowing. Refer to the activity/task card for the instructions on what to do. (Attachment A) Group 2 – Describe how mixtures are separated through winnowing (Attachment B) Group 3 – Draw the winnower and describe how it is being used (Attachment C) Giving of Instructions: 1. Each group will choose a leader and a reporter. 2. Each group will be given an activity card. 3. The activity card serves as your guide on the activity that you are going to perform. 4. All the members in the group must work as a team. 5. After the activity write the results of your activity in the manila paper to be reported by the reporter. The teacher will let the pupils report their work in front of the class. Analysis: The teacher asks the pupils the following questions: 1. For Group 1, What did you do? (Ans. Demonstrating how winnowing is done based on the picture provided) What happened to the palay and hull after winnowing? (Ans. They are separated) 2. For Group 2, what are the materials/components of the mixture? (Ans. Mongo seeds and mongo pods, rice grains and hulls How did you separate them? (Ans. By using a winnower) 3. For Group 3, how did you separate the components of the mixtures? (Ans. Through winnowing and by using a tool called a winnower) Abstraction: The teacher will discuss the concept. Winnowing is another way to separate mixtures. It is the process of freeing (grain) from the lighter particles of chaff, dirt, etc., especially by throwing it into the air and allowing the wind or a forced current of air to blow away impurities. Winnower is a tool used in this process of separating mixtures called winnowing. Winnowing is the method in which heavier components of mixture are separated from the lighter substances with the help of the wind. This method is used for separating grains from husk after the process of threshing. It is a farming method developed by ancient people for separating grain from chaff. It is also used to remove weevils or other pests from stored grain. Threshing, which is the loosening of grain or seeds from the husks and straw, comes before winnowing. In its simplest form it involves throwing the mixture into the air so that the wind blows away the lighter chaff. The heavier grains fall back down for recovery. This method is called "wind-grading". Other methods include using a winnowing fan (a shaped basket shaken to raise the chaff). Yet another is using a tool (a winnowing fork or shovel) on a pile of harvested grain. Winnowing can also describe the natural removal of fine material from a coarser sediment by wind or flowing water. This is like separating wheat from chaff. Application: In your own words, describe briefly how winnowing is done in separating mixtures. ______________________________________ ______________________________________ (Ans. The is a process of separating lighter particles from heavier particles; with the help of wind, Farmers drop the mixture of wheat and husk from a height.) Practical Application. Let the pupils give a particular activity where the process of winnowing on separating components of mixture can be used. (Ans. When you’re in the farm, you use winnowing in separating rice grains from rice hulls) C. Generalization: 1. What is the other technique/way of separating mixture? (Ans. Winnowing) 2. What is winnowing? (Ans. The process of separating lighter particles from heavier particles; with the help of the wind.) 3. How can mixtures be separated in winnowing? (Ans. With the help of the wind, lighter component will be separated from the heavier one and by dropping the mixture from a certain height) 4. How important is the process of winnowing in our daily living? (Ans. Winnowing is very useful especially in agriculture, the farmers will be able to separate rice grains from lighter impurities such as husk, hulls, stones to have a clean and quality agricultural product) 4 Content Standard: Different techniques to separate mixtures Separating Mixtures Through Filtration D.

Through filtration) Abstraction: The teacher will discuss the concept. So, our lesson this morning deals about separating of mixtures through filtering or filtration. Filtration is the process of separating solid substances from a liquid using a filter paper or any cloths that can be used as a filtering medium. These solid residues are trapped by the filter paper or cloth, which allow the liquid substances to pass through in the process. It is the process of separating an insoluble solid from the liquid substance by allowing the liquid to pass through a porous material. The porous material is usually a filter paper. The method of separation applies only to suspensions because solute and colloidal particles are too small to be retained on the filter paper. In this process, the filter paper allows the liquid to pass through it and retains the solid particles. The solid is called the residue, while the liquid is called the filtrate. Application: Underline the mixtures that can be separated through filtration. Sand and water oil and water Soybeans and water water Rice grain and sugar milk soil and water salt solution pepper and grated coconut and coconut General Application: You noticed that your water has small particles of sand. What method can you use to make it clean and safe to drink? ______________________________________ ______________________________________ . (Ans. The method that can be used to make the water clean and safe to drink is filtration.) C. Generalization: Therefore, what do you mean by filtration? How do you describe filtration as one of the techniques in separating mixture? (Ans. Filtration is a process used to separate insoluble solids from the liquid in a solid-liquid mixture like sand and water.) (Ans. It uses a porous barrier to separate solid from the liquid. The liquid passes through leaving the solid in the filter paper.) 5 Content Standard: Different techniques to separate mixtures Performance Standards: Answer questions in the Summative Test D.
