- 1. 1 2 ENGLISH 3 ACTIVITY SHEET 1 The Science of Planting Seeds Emma and her brother Max are going to learn how to plant seeds in their garden. They have all their materials ready: seeds, soil, water, and small pots. First, they pull out the weeds from the garden bed. It’s important to keep the soil clean so that the new plants can grow better. Next, they fill the pots with soil and make small holes in the soil. Both Emma and Max try to make the holes the same size to ensure the seeds will grow well. Then, they place one seed into each hole and cover it lightly with soil. Together, Emma and Max carry the watering can and gently water the seeds. It’s important to water the seeds regularly, but never too much, or they might rot in their place from being too wet. Finally, they place the pots in a sunny spot where the seeds can get plenty of sunlight. Sunlight is crucial for photosynthesis; the process plants use to make their food. After a few weeks, they see the first sprouts coming up. Emma and Max feel proud of their work and try to take good care of their plants every day. They learned that with proper care and patience, they can grow beautiful plants together. Read the following words: pots weeds sprout watering can photosynthesis 1.

- 2. 4 ENGLISH 3 ACTIVITY SHEET 3 USEFUL METALS Thousands of years ago, stones were necessary for survival. Early humans used stones, depending on how they were shaped, as tools or weapons. Without stones, they could not hunt for food, defend themselves and build structures. They also used stones to light fire. After several years, everything changed when metals were discovered. Metals improved many aspects of their lives. Up to this day, many of the things that we see and use every day are made of metal. Are you familiar with some of them? Let us learn more about metal! Iron: Iron is a shiny, sturdy metal that is often used to make tools, machinery, and structures. Its color is silver-grey. It is the main component in steel, which is used in buildings, bridges, and vehicles. When you see a construction site or a car, you are looking at iron and steel at work! Surigao, Mindanao has the biggest iron ore deposit in the country. Aluminum: Aluminum is soft, lightweight and corrosion-resistant, and is extracted from bauxite ore. Its color is silvery-white. It is used in many things, like beverage cans, window frames, and even airplanes. Next time you sip from a soda can or look out of a window, think of aluminum! The largest bauxite mine is found in Western Samar Province on Samar Island. Copper: Copper is reddish-brown and conducts electricity really well. It is flexible but tough. It is used in electrical wires, plumbing pipes, and coins. So, when you turn on a light switch or drop a penny into your piggy bank, you are dealing with copper! South Cotabato has the largest copper mine in the Philippines and one of the largest in the world, too. Our country is truly blessed with different resources that play essential roles in our daily lives; from the utensils we use to the buildings we live in! Evaluating Learning Read the story and complete the graphic organizer by identifying the step-by-step procedure of the experiment. In a cozy kitchen, Cora and Jun decided to grow their own crystals. They gathered a glass jar, string, water, sodium borate powder, and food coloring. First, they boiled water and mixed it with sodium borate until dissolved. Next, they suspended a string in the jar and left it overnight. Each day, they checked for crystal formation. Gradually, colorful crystals began to form on the string. Excitedly, they watched as their crystal garden grew. Lily and Ben learned that crystals form when dissolved substances cool and solidify, leaving behind intricate structures. Their crystal project became a shimmering success! 3
