WHAT I KNOW?
Matter is anything that
has weight and takes
up space. Everything
you can see and touch
is made up of matter.
Matter exists in three
main forms: solids,
liquids, and gases.

WHAT'S NEW?
There are things or materials around
us that have their characteristics that
make them different from each other.
One characteristic of materials is the
ability to absorb. The property that
enables materials to absorb water is
the liquid’s special ability called
capillarity.
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1
WHAT'S NEW?
CAPILLARITY-IS THE ABILITY OF LIQUID TO PASS
THROUGH NARROW SPACES WITHOUT THE
ASSISTANCE OF AN EXTERNAL FORCE
LIKE GRAVITY.
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1
WHAT'S NEW?
CAPILLARY ACTION- THIS IS WHEN
MATERIALS CAN SOAK OR
ABSORB WATER. IT IS THE
MOVEMENT OF LIQUID ALONG A
SURFACE OF A SOLID CAUSED BY
THE ATTRACTION OF MOLECULES
OF THE LIQUID TO THE MOLECULES
OF THE SOLID.
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1
WHAT'S NEW?
Identify
if the object shown can
absorb water, write the word
ABSORB, but if it does not absorb
water write REPEL.

WHAT IS IT?
There are two kinds of materials, absorbent and
non-absorbent materials.
Absorbent materials are normally seen in objects
with a lot of holes that allow liquid to get inside the
materials and occupy the spaces in it through
capillarity. Absorbent materials are able to absorb
liquids because it is made of materials that are
permeable or porous. Examples of absorbent
materials are cotton, cloth made from cotton and
sponge.

Cotton towels
ABSORBENT
MATERIALS ARE
MATERIALS THAT CAN
ABSORB LIQUIDS SUCH
AS WATER.
Cotton buds

diaper
Gauze pads
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1
WHAT IS IT?
While non-absorbent materials do not
allow water to pass though. Nonabsorbent does not allow liquids to sip
in because it is made of materials that
are waterproof. These materials repel
the entry of water. Examples of these
materials are plastic cups, rubber
gloves and polyester.

ASSIGNMENT: DO AN EXPERIMENT
After learning about the ability of some materials to
absorb water, have a short experiment on plants’ ability
to absorb liquid. Rain is important to plants because it
allows nutrients to be distributed all over the plant
evenly.
Performance Task: Experiment on the
capillary action of plants in relation to the
ability of materials to absorb water.
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY: PERFORMANCE TASK
DO AN EXPERIMENT
First, prepare the following
materials:
1. plant stalk like celery stalk or
any stalk of plants with thin
leaves or flower
2. any transparent container like
plastic coke bottle or drinking
glass,
3. food coloring or any dye you
have at home like hair dye, ink
of printer, water based liquid
paint) and
4. a cup of water.
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1
DO AN EXPERIMENT
Second: Follow the following steps and
observe.
1. Get a plant stalk with leaves/flowers.
2. Get a bottle of transparent drinking glass or
transparent plastic container.
3. Put water into the transparent container.
4. Color the water with coloring.
5. Soak the plant stalk into the transparent
container with colored water.
6. Let it stay for 2 to three days.
7. Look what happened to the talk
CCMALECDAN_SCIENCE4_SSES_WK1

Third: Answer the following questions in
complete sentences. (5 pts each, 10pts)
What happened to the plant stalk after
several days?
