Let us check what you have learned from this lesson. Answer each item with either YES or NO by
ticking on the corresponding box of your choice. If your answer is YES, explain why. If NO, justify your
answer by writing on the columns provided.
Indicators Yes No WHY?
1.) In teaching science, is it appropriate to
make learners master and practice the basic
  Yes, It is appropriate for the learners to
science processes first? master and practice the basic science
processes, because you can’t proceed to the
higher level if you don’t know about the basic
process.
One must start on basic or in the simplest
before proceeding to the high and next level.
The basic is the foundation and guide to step
on.

2.) Does teaching the basic science


processes require sophisticated laboratory
equipment?
  No, It is because the basic science
processes can be done by using our senses.
Using of laboratory equipment is not
necessary to used it takes time for the basic
processes.

3.) Are all science activities called


experimenting?
  No, Experiment is a procedure carried out
to refute and validate a hypothesis. It
provides insight into causal by demonstrating
what outcome occurs when particular factor
is manipulated.

4.) Will teaching science in the elementary


grades provide a good foundation for
learning science in the higher grade levels?
  Yes, In Elementary level they teach basic
processes which serve as the first step to
lead us to higher grade levels. And if teaching
science in the elementary is not good to the
learners then every student will not go to
elementary grades that teaches science.

5.) Is there only one method of teaching


science?
  No, There are many methods in teaching
Science. We all know that science really test

our strategy because science is a big field
that we need to give our best and should find
ways to learn our learners and discover. We
are surrounded by Science.

6.) Are higher order thinking skills


developed if one teaches the integrated
science skills?
  Yes, Higher order skills will be developed
since integrated skills are involving mental
operations, reasoning, and to reach the
conclusions and involves application of
criteria which can lead to develop HOTS.

7.) Does inquiry-based science approach


include always asking questions?
  Yes, In my side, every time I inquire it is
always asking question. When we tackled
science we create lots of question in our mind
and by inquiring and asking questions we can
gather and acquire information regards to the
question asked. This is all about curiosity.

8.) Does science learning in the lower grade


also lead to discovery?
  Yes, I really believe that children from
lower grade are very curious of everything
and eager to learn, science is one way of
giving chance to the children discover more
things and gather new information.

9.) Will learning the content and the


processes of science make you prepared
teachers in the future?
  Yes, By learning the content and the
processes of science it gives a larger
comprehension not only to science but to
other subject as well, since science contains
a lot of contents that lead to understanding of
other subject.

10.) Do you like to teach learners in


elementary science?
  Yes, Aside from loving to teach
elementary schoolers, I want to teach the
science which they are interested because it
is full of discovery and learning. Where their
curiosity of the world would be given answer
by their own work. Also, I also love to see
learners who are happy by their own
discovery and enjoyment.
