B. Developmental Lessons 1. Motivation Have you experience playing outside at night? What do you usually play? How about playing if theres no electricity at night? What do you usually play Are you enjoying playing shadow during brownout? pupil's answer may vary hide and seek. pupil's answer may vary playing shadow yes!

2. Presentation Now class I prepare an activity playing shadow? But before that, what are the standards to be followed while having group activity. The teacher will give an activity to Cooperate with your group Work quietly Follow instruction correctly pupil's do as told

be done by the pupils then, they will answer the following questions. Write on it.

1. Focus the flashlight on the book then observe if the shadow is formed. Do you see a shadow? 2. Focus the flashlight on cellophane. Do you see a shadow? 3. Do the same on the piece of colored cellophane. Do you see a shadow? 4. Fill out the following table. Check the appropriate column. 5. Which materials cast a shadow?
Materials Casts a dark shadow Casts a light shadow Does not cast a shadow at all

Book Clear cellophane Colored cellophane 6. Which did not cast a shadow? 7. Describe the shadow cast by the piece of colored cellophane.

3. Discussion (The leader of the group will explain their work in the front.) Now, class based from the activity that you have done which material casted a shadow? Very good! Why do you think that book casted a shadow? Very good! If the light cannot pass through on that object. Do you have any idea about kind of material is that? Very good! And aside from that, in opaque materials you cannot the things behind of it.

Book Because the light cannot pass through

Opaque materials

Now class, based from those materials, which material casted a light shadow? Very good! When you focused the light on the clear cellophane what have you notice on the light?

Colored Cellophane

Only small amount of light can pass through the object

Very good! So since that only small amount of light can pass through on that materials, what do you call that? Very good! Class, from those materials, Is there any material that do not cast a shadow? What is that? Very good! Why do you think that clear cellophane did not cast a shadow?

Translucent materials

Yes, teacher

Clear cellophane Because most of the light pass through the object.

Very Good! So what do you that material? The teacher will ask the pupils to give examples of opaque, translucent and transparent materials.

Transparent materials

4. Generalization What are the three groups of materials according to their ability to allow lights to pass through them. What is opaque materials? How about translucent? transparent?

opaque, translucent and transparent

opaque materials these are the materials cast a shadow because light cannot pass through then. translucent materials are materials that allow some light to pass through and they cast a lighter shadow. transparent materialsare materials that allow must light to pass through and they do not cast a shadow.

5. Application Now class, we will have another group activity. I will divide you into two groups but before that let us set get again the standard in doing group activity. Class, I have here envelopes each envelope has an activity card where the instructions are written.

Cooperate with your group. Work quietly. Follow instructions correctly.

Activity Card No. 1 Directions: Classify the objects as to opaque, translucent, transparent by checking the appropriate column.
Objects Translucent Transparent Opaque
