Desired Learning Outcomes (DepEd Order No. 31, s. 2012) SCHOOL OBJECTIVES
At the end of Grade 10, the student is expected to SO1 SO 2 SO 3 SO 4 SO 5 SO 6
The learners demonstrate an understanding of basic science concepts and the application of science-inquiry skills. They exhibit scientific attitudes and values to solve
problems critically, innovate beneficial products, protect the environment, and conserve resources, enhance the integrity and wellness of people, make informed decisions, and
engage in discussions of relevant issues that involve science, technology, and the environment.
Students learn how many physical phenomena that they observe in their everyday lives can be explained through an understanding of physical science concepts.
Recognize that matter can be changed from one state to another by heating or cooling; describe changes in the state of water (i.e., melting, freezing, boiling, evaporation, and
condensation). Identify properties of metals (i.e., conducting electricity and conducting heat) and relate these properties to uses of metals (e.g., a copper electrical wire, an iron
cooking pot). Recognize that human behavior has negative and positive effects on the environment (e.g., negative effects of air and water pollution, the benefits of reducing air

and water pollution); provide general descriptions and examples of the effects of pollution on humans, plants, and animals, and their environments. Recognize and explain that
some living things in an ecosystem compete with others for food or space. Recognize that forces (i.e., pushing and pulling) may cause an object to change its motion; compare
the effects of these forces of different strengths in the same or opposite directions acting on an object; and recognize that friction force works against the direction of motion
(e.g., friction working against a push or a pull makes it more difficult to move an object along a surface). Recognize that s imple machines, (e.g., levers, pulleys, gears, ramps)
help make motion easier (e.g., make lifting things easier, reduce the amount of force required, change the distance, change the direction of the force). Recognize that the Earth
has a moon that revolves around it, and from Earth the Moon looks different at different times of the month. Describe how weather (i.e., daily variations in temperature, humidity,
precipitation in the form of rain or snow, clouds, and wind) can vary with geographic location (TIMSS 2019 Science Framework, n.d.)
At the end of Grade 6, learners recognize that when mixed, materials may not form new ones thus these materials may be recovered using different separation techniques.
They can prepare useful mixtures such as food, drinks and herbal medicines. Learners understand how the different organ systems of the human body work together. They can
classify plants based on reproductive structures, and animals based on the presence or lack of backbone. They can design and investigate on plant propagation. They can
describe larger ecosystems such as rainforests, coral reefs, and mangrove swamps. Learners can infer that friction and gravity affect how people and objects move. They have
found out that heat, light, sound, electricity, and motion studied earlier are forms of energy and these undergo transformation. Learners can describe what happens during
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions and demonstrate what to do when they occur. They can infer that the weather follows a pattern in a year. They have learned about the solar
system, with emphasis on the motions of the Earth as prerequisite to the study of seasons in another grade level.
The learner is expected to develop functional understanding and application of science and health concepts, basic process/thinking skills, and acquire values, attitudes and
practices related to one's sense organs, personal health, food, nutrition, growth, and development, characteristics of plants and animals, states of matter, heat, light and sound
energy, force and motion, earth resources and their conservation, weather, and the sun as a source of light and heat. The learners should have developed the essential skills of
scientific inquiry – designing simple investigations, using an appropriate procedure, materials, and tools to gather evidence, to observe patterns, determining relationships, drawing
conclusions based on evidence, and communicating ideas in varied ways to make meaning of the observations and changes that occur in the environment. The content and skills
learned will be applied to maintain good health, ensure the protection and improvement of the environment, and practice safety measures.
The Science Learning Module for Grade 6 Science is a new paradigm for teaching and learning. This module is based on the basic goal on Grade Level Standards for
Grade 3-12 of the K-12 Science Guide in Science. This material is also based on the MELCs (Most Essential Competencies) in response to the call of SDG 4 to develop resilient
education systems, most especially during emergencies. This material aims to learn to become productive, worthy, and competitive young scientists in the country. Aims to acquaint
the pupils with the basic biological and physical sciences will help them understand and explain natural phenomena and increase awareness of human beings' role in caring for
themselves and preserving and protecting the environment.
2. Interaction
- The teacher discusses the lesson for Acquisition of Knowledge & Skills and Make meaning.
- The teacher provides practices and formative assessments for mastery
- Consultations through social media platforms (Facebook Messenger, Gmail, and Text Messaging))
Synchronous Learning
• Real-time interaction with the pupils through web conference (Google Meet)
Google Meet- This the real-time or virtual meeting/class with the learners
• Teachers discuss lessons, check understanding if the pupils read and understood the lesson, and if they answered the formative assessment
• Teachers can give immediate feedback
