Introductory Message
For the facilitator:
Welcome to the Science Grade 4 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM)
Module on Change My Looks.
This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by
educators both from public and private institutions to assist you, the
teacher or facilitator in helping the learners meet the standards set by the
K to 12 Curriculum while overcoming their personal, social, and economic
constraints in schooling.
This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and
independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore,
this also aims to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while

 What I Need to Know

This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help
you master the properties of matter. The scope of this module permits it to
be used in many different learning situations. The language used
recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are
arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in
which you read them can be changed to correspond with the textbook you
are now using.

The module has only one lesson:

Lesson 1 – Changes in solid materials when they are bent,

 Lesson
Changes in Solid Materials
1
We are surrounded by solid materials that are very useful in our life
such as books, tables, computers, etc. We can easily hold a solid material
because it has definite shape and volume. It also has different
characteristics such as size, color, and texture. Though solid is definite, it
can be changed through many ways by bending, pressing, hammering and
cutting which result in the change of the material’s appearance. This
process is called physical change. This will be further discussed in the
succeeding activities of this module.

What’s In
Before proceeding, let us review the past lesson which is related to
the topic. You can relate to it very much since it has already been
discussed.
Are you ready to begin?
Good!

Note to the Teacher

A separate sheet may be given to the learners to

write their answers.

12
It’s Sort Time!
Classify the materials based on their characteristics when placed in
water. Write the names of the materials in its correct group.

FLOAT SINK

balloon rubber duck

chalkboard scissors
eraser

leaf spoon

magnet stone

plastic tin can

bottle

13
What’s New

What is this solid

material I am holding
up?

It’s a paper, teacher.

Very good! What are some

ways on how to change their
physical appearance?

We can bend and cut it,

teacher.

That’s right! Do you know the

other ways to change the
physical appearance of a solid
material without forming a new
one? What characteristics are
changed? Let’s find them out in
this lesson. Come and join me!
14
 What is It

What characteristics of a
solid material change
during physical change?

The SHAPE of a solid material

can change. It refers to figures
such as geometric figures like
square, triangle, rectangle and
circle.

Moreover, the SIZE of a solid

material can also change. It
refers to the tallness or
shortness of a solid material.

The VOLUME of a solid material can

height
also be changed. It is the amount of
space occupied by a solid material.
Basically, it talks about the length,
length width, and height.

The TEXTURE of a solid

material can also change. It
refers to the smoothness or
roughness, and softness or
hardness. smooth and soft rough and hard

pressing Did you know that there are

hammering
many ways to change these
characteristics without forming
a new material? Come on!
bending cutting Let’s explore them.

15
 What’s More

Activity 1: Yes or No?

Hi learners!
I believe that you gain helpful insights from the readings in the previous
page, so now let us test your learning.
The solid materials below can be bent. Apply force to the materials to form
a curve. Observe them then answer the questions by encircling the correct
answer.

1. Does the shape of the cooper wire change when bent?

YES NO

2. Does the taste of the metal spoon change when bent?

YES NO
3. Does the size of the paper clip change when bent?

YES NO

16
4. Does the odor of the soft rubber eraser change when bent?

YES NO
5. Does the texture of the straw change when bent?

YES NO

17
Activity 2: How do I Bend?
Are you ready for more activities?
You do? Great!
In this activity, there are different materials inside the boxes. You have to
describe what will happen to the material when bending it.
Draw a line that connects the material inside the box to the circle which
best describes the material when bending it.

cooper wire

It changes
shape then
hotdog
goes back to
how it was.

slippers
It changes
shape but
DOES NOT
go back to
how it was.
wire mesh

marshmallow

18
Activity 3: Pressing Time!

There are solid materials that can be pressed. This action flattens the
solid material thus changing its looks.

What changes happen in each solid material? Use yellow to color

the circle of your answer.

Materials Changes in the Material When Pressed

change change
in size in taste

balloon
change change
in color in
shape

doughnut

change
change

texture
plastic bottle

change change
in size in taste

sponge

19
Activity 4: Press Be with You

Look at the items below. Which items can be pressed? Put a check mark
( ) inside the box of those items.

hotdog mug

paper cup soap

wood

20
Activity 5: Surrounded by Changes

Solid materials can be hammered. However, there are other things that
cannot be hammered because they will likely break.

Complete the semantic web below. Write the changes that happen when
you hammer a wood. You can choose your answer from the box.

change in size change in shape

change in color change in weight
change in taste change in texture
change in smell change in substance

21
Activity 6: Can It Be Hammered?

Look at the materials below. Describe if they can be hammered or not.

Then, underline the correct word/s to complete the sentence.

The chalk (can be, cannot be)

hammered because it will (break, not break).
chalk

The flower pot (can be, cannot be)

hammered because it will (break, not break).

flower pot

The metal fork (can be, cannot be)

hammered because it will (break, not break).
metal fork

The mirror (can be, cannot be)

hammered because it will (break, not break).

mirror

The tin can (can be, cannot be)

hammered because it will (break, not break).

tin can

22
Activity 7: The New Me

Solid materials can be cut, however, no new material is formed because

the materials were only cut into portions or parts.

The following solid materials can be cut. Draw the changes you see in
the box after you cut the solid materials. Color your drawings afterwards.

Before After

marshmallow

paper

plastic bottle

shirt

straw

23
Activity 8: Smile… 1, 2, 3 Cut!

Draw a smiley face beside the picture if the solid material can be cut
using scissors.

candy wrapper chalk

leaf magnet

paper cup

24
 What I Have Learned

Great Job! You finished all the activities.

Now, you learned that:

A solid material can be changed in many

ways: by bending, pressing, hammering
and cutting.
Bending, pressing, hammering and cutting
change only the physical appearance of a
solid material without forming a new one.
Bending is curving the solid material.
Some materials change shape then go
back to how it was, while others do not.
Pressing is flattening the solid material.
Like bending, some materials change
shape then go back to how it was, while
others do not.
Hammering is hitting or beating a solid
material without breaking.
Cutting is making two or more portions of a
solid material.

25
