A LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE IV (PHYSICS)

I. OBJECTIVES:
         
      Through varied  instructional materials, the fourth year students with at least 75% of accuracy are expected to:
          a. differentiate series circuit from parallel circuit
          b. identify the basic parts/components of an electric circuit
          c. connect the parts/components of an electric circuit properly
          d. appreciate the importance of observing proper wiring installation

II. SUBJECT MATTER:

      Topic: Electric Circuits
      Skills: cooperation, listening, analysis.
      Reference:  Science and Health 4 (Physics) 3rd Edition by Lourdes Buenaventura Lopez- pp. 401- 405
      Materials:

• Multimedia: PowerPoint presentation of the topic
• 2D Materials: Visual aids with schematic diagrams

      Subject Integration: T.L.E. and Art
      Values Integration: participate in class activities and develop sense of awareness about safety

III. PROCEDURE:

      1. Preparation:
           a. Preliminaries: Prayer (to be done by the teacher )
           b. Motivational Activity: A game called SPOT the "MO". given a picture in the board, the class will be group into four groups (namely A, B, C, and D). They are going to spot the things that are found in the picture which names starts with "Mo". The group who spotted more "Mo" things will be the winner.
      2. Introduction:
           The teacher will ask this question to the class: "What can you say about the picture?" (any answers will be accepted).
      3. Lecture Proper:

ELECTRIC CIRCUITS 

The teacher will show a PowerPoint presentation to the class:

      4. Conclusion:

                  It is more preferable to use Parallel connection than Series connection in wiring installation because Parallel Circuit are connected in such a way that any single one completes the circuit independently of all the others. So, there is no power interruption when one component is shut down/damage.

IV. APPLICATION:

      The class will be group into four groups once again. Each group will be provided with a circuit board (not yet assembled) complete with its basic components/parts. Their outputs will be judge according to:

• Proper Installation                     ---  40%
• Cleanliness/presentation            ---   30%
• Speed                                      ---   30%

V. EVALUATION:

      Direction: In a 1/4 sheet of paper, answer the following questions briefly and direct to the point.

      

      1. Why do we need to be familiar about the parts of the Electric Circuit?

      2. Discuss the importance of having basic knowledge in proper wiring installation.

      3. Give at least 5 reasons why do there are cases of accidents related to electricity.

VI. ASSIGNMENT:

• Read in advance about "The Ohms Law".
• In your notebook, define the following terms:

1. Voltage
2. Electric Resistance 
3. Current
