    This document contains a science lesson about weathering for 5th grade students. It begins with a prayer and attendance check, then defines weathering as the breaking down of rocks. It describes the two main types of weathering as mechanical and chemical. Mechanical weathering involves physical processes like temperature changes, water, wind, plants, and animals. Chemical weathering involves chemical processes like oxidation and carbonation that alter the composition of minerals. The lesson concludes with examples for students to identify as mechanical or chemical weathering.

    SCIENCE ONLINE CLASS
    FOURTH QUARTER
    Heavenly Father, creator of all things
    We thank you Oh Lord for such a wonderful day
    We ask for your Heavenly knowledge Oh Lord
    as we study our lesson today
    Guide us Dear Father and protect us from all matters of
    harm and danger.
    Thank you so much Dear God for hearing and answering
    our prayers.
    Please forgive us from our sins.
    All these we ask and pray
    In Jesus name
    Amen.
    Checking of
    Attendance
    I want you to stay focused as we go
    on with our lesson.

    Do not do unnecessary things while


    our class is still going.

    Listen carefully.
    Science

    Have you seen a marble
    floor?
    A stone
    carving?
    or simply a rugged
    stone?
    Can you describe
    them?

    smooth usually smooth but has many sharp


    some are rough and rough edges
    How about a construction on the
    What happens toroadside?
    rocks when a construction
    worker operates his jackhammer?

    in Burgos, Ilocos Norte
    Rocks are hard, compact, and
    solid.

    Weathering
    It is the process of
    breaking down of
    rocks into small
    fragments.
    Weathering

    Types of Weathering

    Mechanic Chemical
    al Weatherin
    Mechanical
    Weathering
    Physical Weathering
    It is the breakdown of rock where no chemical
    change takes place, and no new substances are
    produced.
    The rocks may change their size, but they are still
    the same kind of rock.
    a.
    Temperature
    alternating hot and
    cold temperatures
    weaken the rock as
    it expands and
    contracts
    The strong waves
    b. Water that hit the rocks.
    b. Water

    Frost Action /
    Frost Wedging
    c. Wind
    As the wind blows, it carries sand or small rock
    particles that scratch the rock’s surface.
    c. Wind
    d. Plants
    Plant roots uplift and fracture rock.
    d. Plants
    Lichens and mosses grow on
    rocks.

    They wedge their tiny roots


    into spores and crevices.

    When the roots grow, the


    rock splits.
    e. Animals
    As burrowing animals such as rabbits, moles, and badgers dig
    deeper, they cause rocks to break into pieces.
    f. Humans

    Quarrying

    Chemical
    Weathering
    The process by which chemicals
    breakdown rock through a change in
    the mineral’s composition, happens
    fastest in a hot, moist climate.
    a. Oxidation
    It occurs when oxygen
    from the air combines
    with iron-rich minerals of
    the rock,
    oxidation = RUST.
    b.
    Carbonation
    It occurs when water combines with
    carbon dioxide in the air to form
    carbonic acid. This acid attacks and
    dissolves mineral called calcite.
    Rocks made up of calcite such as
    limestone, sandstone, and marble
    can be broken down this way.
    In what ways can
    weathering affect
    us?
    Quarrying operations in a certain
    province has been stopped by the
    Department of Environment and
    Natural Resources or DENR.
    Why do you think so?
    Weathering is one of the Earth’s
    natural ways of shaping the land;
    however, certain human activities can
    hasten these process. How can you
    help lessen the activities’ harmful
    effects on people and the
    environment?
