Introductory Message
Welcome to Research 7
The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of
the Schools Division of Roxas City and Deped Regional Office VI - Western
Visayas through the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD).
This is developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers, parents and
responsible adults) in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to
12 Basic Education Curriculum.
The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials
aimed to guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and
time using the contextualized resources in the community. This will also
assist the learners in acquiring the lifelong learning skills, knowledge and
attitudes for productivity and employment.
For learning facilitator:
The Research 7 Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the teachinglearning activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency
(MELC) with minimal or no face-to-face encounter between you and learner.
This will be made available to the learners with the references/links to ease
the independent learning.
For the learner:
The Research 7 Activity Sheet is developed to help you continue
learning even if you are not in school. This learning material provides you with
meaningful and engaging activities for independent learning. Being an active
learner, carefully read and understand the instructions then perform the
activities and answer the assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator
on the agreed sched

Observing
I.
Learning Competency with Code
Explain the importance of observation in the empirical nature of science
(SSP-RS7SPS-Id-2)
Demonstrate the skills of observing a given event and/or object
(SSP-RS7SPS-Id-3)

Background Information for Learners
Observing is the fundamental science process skill. You observe
objects and events using all your five senses which are sense of sight, touch,
hearing, smell and taste. By observing, you are able to describe the colors of
the rainbow, the feeling of your mother’s warm hugs and embrace, the sound
of your childhood toys, the smell of your favorite foods and the taste of the
sweetest candies and chocolates you have tasted. As you would notice, through
observing, you were able to learn about the things around you, its properties,
characteristics, similarities and differences and appreciate its wonders and
beauty.
The
ability
to
make
good
observations is also important to the
development of the other science process
skills:
communicating,
classifying,
measuring, inferring, and predicting. The
simplest observations, made using only the
senses, are qualitative observations. For
example, the leaf is light green in color or
the leaf is waxy and smooth. Observations
that involve a number or quantity are
quantitative observations. For example, the
mass of one leaf is five grams or the leaves
are clustered in groups of five. Quantitative
observations give more precise information
than our senses alone.
Observation is important in the
empirical nature of science which refers to
the idea that science is based on or derived

lOMoARcPSD|29541242
from observations of the world around us from which interpretations and
meanings are made. Just like in a scientific method, scientists use observation
to collect and record data, which enables them to construct and then test
hypotheses and theories. Scientists observe in many ways – with their own
senses or with tools such as microscopes, scanners or transmitters to extend
their vision or hearing. These tools allow for more precise and accurate
observations.
Like most skills, observation improves with practice and
knowledge. You learn to observe more scientifically when: observations are
prompted by appropriate questioning, observations are connected with growing
background knowledge on the subject or object under observation and if you
are given the opportunity to share, discuss and debate your observations. For
example, you are so familiar with water because it is a common substance and
utilize it every day. However, have you observed it in a scientific manner? Like
asking, “does water have a shape?” or “can you squash water?” The
opportunities to experiment with water and discuss our experiences with
shaping or squashing it are likely to change your idea of this familiar
substance.

Activity Proper
Activity 1: HOW IMPORTANT IS OBSERVATION?
Directions: Below is an illustration of the steps of scientific method which
scientists and researchers follow to answer their questions and solve their
problems about the world. Analyze the illustration and explain the importance
of observation in the empirical nature of science by answering the guide
questions that follow.

Activity 2: SHOW ME WHAT YOU HAVE
Directions: Get something you can find in your house that can be described
through observation. It may be an object, a food, a toy, an appliance, a furniture
or whatever that is interesting and valuable to you. Introduce what you’ve got
by demonstrating your skills of observing. Write your observations in the table
in each category. Please be specific and write facts that can be proven.

Activity 1:
1. Through observation, we are able to discover things round us and some
of these things make us curious and make us create questions that
need to be answered systematically through a scientific method. There
are things around us that need to be studied and investigated deeper
to be understood. Our curiosity makes us inquire more and look for
more information.
2. No. A scientific method or a scientific investigation will never be
successful without a careful and systematic process of observation.
Observation is the starting point of a scientific method so there is
nothing to be studied on or investigate without it.
3. Observation is very much important in the empirical nature of science
which refers to the idea that science is based on or derived from
observations of the world around us from which interpretations and
meanings are made. Just like in a scientific method, scientists use
observation to collect and record data, which enables them to construct
and test hypotheses and theories.
