IV. PROCEDURES
A. Reviewing previous lesson or
presenting the new lesson
Ask learners on what they
remember about grade 6
science?
Recall some scientific
methods
Review on science technology
and society.
Laboratory Apparatus
Recall steps involved in
investigatory process
B. Establishing a purpose for
the lesson
Ask the learners:
Teacher ask the question:
“What is science and what
does it do?
Name a hobby or something
you enjoy doing (sports,
cooking, school work,
carpentry, etc.) What
equipment or tools are
necessary for you to do this?
List as many as possible.
Ask the learners, how they
solve their problems?
Ask the learners on how they
cook their food at home? Do
they have some preparatory
steps before doing it? Do they
follow some rules?
Tell them that aside from
their usual techniques in
solving problem, they can
explore the world and solve
everyday problems using
scientific method.
Let the learners try to tell how
they prepare a coffee or milk
for themselves or for their
family?
How do you conduct an
investigation?
(5 minutes)
C. Presenting
examples/instances for the new
lesson

One of the distinct traits that
separate man from animals is
his/her ability to answer
questions and solve problems
that are present in his/her
environment. The same trait
is also contributory factor for
his/her survival and evolution
through a period of time.
How do we solve problems?
Explain what science is and
what does it do?
Compare the life during the
19th century and the 20th
century.
Ask learners about the
recent developments in the
technology.
Science is also something that
requires lots of tools and
equipment, and you have to
know what they are and how
they’re used. You are
constantly observing things
and measuring things in
science, and the equipment we
use makes us more effective.
Today you’ll learn several
different pieces of equipment,
and you’ll describe how
certain things are used.
(5 minutes)
D. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skills # 1
Learners Perform Activity 1
– Growing Tomatoes Using
Nitrogen Fertilizers

pages 3 - 6
Group Activity
“Collage Making” different
pictures of positive effect
of technology in the
society.
Learners will be asked to
classify the lab apparatus
Enumerate the steps in
conducting scientific
investigation.
“Collage Making” different
pictures of negative effect
of technology in the
society.
Presentation of Collage
Identify the variables in the
experiments.
G. Finding practical
applications of concepts and
skills in daily living
Relate scientific process in
solving real life situation.
H. Making generalizations and
abstractions about the lesson
Teacher will emphasize the
utilization of scientific
process to determine the
effect of fertilizer on the
growth of tomato plants.
How do science improve
and degrade our way of
life?
Output will serve as
evaluation
Collage Outputs will serve
as evaluation.
I. Evaluating Learning
3|Page
Cite other examples of
benefits of technology to
the society.
Teacher present the basic
steps involved in the
investigatory process.
G1: Measuring Volume
G2: Measuring Mass
G3: Measuring temperature
G4: Lab equipment
Group Activity
E. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skills # 2
F. Developing mastery
(Leads to Formative
Assessment 3)
Group Activity

and demonstrate the proper
handling of apparatus while
guided by the teacher.
Jingle presentation
“Steps in Scientific Process”
Naming and giving the uses of
Laboratory apparatus.
Learners design a simple
experiment following steps
involved in investigatory
process
(40 minutes)
.
Integrate some safety rules in
the laboratory.
Have a game on use and
function of lab apparatus.
Group Activity
Emphasize the steps in
scientific process.
What is the advantage of using
the scientific process in
solving problem?
Teacher will give suggestion
on how to improve the write
up if needed.
Describe what fair test in
investigation and its
importance
Prepare a 15 item quiz
Prepare a 10 item quiz
Write up will serve as
evaluation
J. Additional activities for
application for remediation

1. Remind students to check
the plants every day and
record all the observation on
the growth of the plants.
2. Bring pictures of positive
and negative effects of
technology
Learners will discuss the
result of the activity after 10
days.
