Task 2: OOPS, I DID IT AGAIN!
Using the following materials allow them to check their answer by
changing the shape of the materials.
Directions:
a. Observe the solid materials given in column A.
b. Change the shape of materials found in column A by applying
force.
c. Fill out column B with what you did to change the shape of
materials.
d. Fill out column C with changes that took place after you have
applied force on the materials.

material?
Guide Questions:
1. Look at your answers in column B. What are the common ways
you did to change the shape of the objects? For each way, what did
you see?
2. Listed below are also other ways to change the of objects. What do
you think will happen to an object if you will
a) Pound b) Bent c) Stretch d) Crumpled or e) Press
it?
3. From your answers in the question above, what do you think can
force do to object?
D. Analysis
Based on the lesson, let the students answer the questions that
follow.
a. What did you apply when you hammer, bend, stretch or crumple
an object?
b. What happened to an object when force is applied on an object?
Why?
Task 3: PUSH OR PULL?
Direction: Put a circle on the blank on pictures that shows pushing
of an object and put a square on the pictures shows pulling of an
object. Write your answers in your paper.

E. Abstraction
Force is either a push or pull on an object. It occurs when two or more
objects interact with each other. For instance, when you stretch a
rubber band, you apply a pulling force. When you press a sponge, you
exert a pushing force. Magnets, gravity, and friction can also cause
things to move. Force can also change the shape, size, or movement of
an object.
The shape of an object may change when force is applied on it.
Pushing pounding, compressing, bending, twisting, stretching, or
squeezing are some ways of changing the shape of an object. The size
of an object or may also change when force is applied. For example,
cutting a cardboard to make it smaller. Sharpening a pencil makes
the pencil shorter. What do you think will happen to a toy car if you
apply a strong force to it to make it moves compared to a lesser force
exerted on it? The toy car will move faster if greater force is applied,
and it will move slower if lesser force is given. The force applied to an
object affect the movement of an object, whether it is push and go or
hang and pull.
Ask:
a. What do you call to the movement that uses force to move
something away from you?
b. What do you call then the movement that uses force to move
something towards you?
c. What are the ways of changing shape of an object?
F. Application
