Before we go on to our new
lesson, let us first review our lesson
yesterday. Who among you can still
remember the formula of the plane
figures? Again, what is the formula of
square?
 Yes ___________. Sir, the formula of square is
A = S2
Excellent!
How about the formula of the
circle? Sir, the formula of circle is
A = πr2
Excellent!
How about the formula of the
Trapezoid? Sir, the area of the trapezoid is

Excellent!

4. Checking of Assignments
Class, let us check your
assignment. Did you bring a model of an
electric meter?

Where is the leader of group Yes, Sir!

one? Did you bring the materials?

How about group two? Yes, Sir!

Did you bring the materials?

Very Good! Yes, Sir!

A. Lesson Proper
1. Motivation
What appliances do you have at
home? What makes these
appliances work?
Do you know how much
electricity your household
consumes in a month?
(The student will answer)
2. Presentation
(The teacher will present a
model of an Electric meter)
What do you call this
device?
Yes, Roselyn!

Very Good! Sir, that is an electric meter.

Where can you find it?

 Yes, Mona! Sir we can find electric meter in
our home.
Very Good!

What does this device

measures?
Yes, Georgia! Sir electric meter measures
how much electricity we consumed.
Very Good!
(The teacher will explain that
the basic unit for measuring
electricity is watt. Large quantity
of electricity is measured
kilowatt-hour.) (The pupils will listen and
observe)
Let the pupils observe closely
the model of an electric meter.
Direct their attention to dials
(1’s, 100’s, 1000’s) the numbers
(0-9) and the pointer in each
dial. Lead them to see that the
pointers in the First and third
dials move counterclockwise,
while the second and fourth
dials move clockwise.
Demonstrate the movement by
manipulating the pointers. Point
out that the dials would show
how many kilowatt-hour
electricity were consumed.

3. Discussion
If the pointers in the
dials move very fast, what does
it mean?
Yes, Cecil! Sir if the pointers in the dials
move very fast that means there are
Very Good! many appliances being used.
What should one do?
Yes, Melanie! Sir one should turn off the
appliances which are not in use.
Very Good!
What measures should
a household do to conserve or
save energy?
Yes, Mark! Sir as much as possible each
member of the household should only
use electric appliances to the most
Very Good! important task in the house.
 Why do we need to
conserve/save energy?
Yes, Jonahbabe Sir we need to conserve/save
energy to lessen the bill that we will
pay, and also to lessen the heat
produced by the machine of the
Very Good! appliances.

4. Generalization

Did you understand the

things that we have tackled this
afternoon? Yes, Sir!
Again, what is the basic
unit for measuring electricity? Sir, the basic unit for measuring
electricity is called watt.
Very good!
What do we use to
measure large quantities of
electricity? Sir, to measure large quantities
of electricity, we use kilowatt-hour.
Very good!
How do we read an
electric meter? Sir, we read electric meter from
right to left and from the numbers
passed by the pointers.
Very good!
5. Fixing Skills
Give the reading in kwh.

6. Application

After the discussion the

teacher will group the students
into two groups and give the
direction.
 7. Valuing

What do you think the reason

why electric bill A has higher
amount of kilowatt-hour
consumed than electric bill B?
Group A, what is your idea?

Very good!
How about your idea group B?

Sir after our discussion we

learned and realized that the reason
why consumer A gets higher amount of
electric bill may be the consumer uses
electricity unwisely.
Very good!
Sir after our discussion we
(The teacher will enhance the
learned that the reason why consumer
values infused in the topic)
B gets lower amount of electric bill may
be the members of their family use
their electricity wisely and just enough
IV. Evaluation
on their needs. Our group realized that

using and saving electricity wisely will
help us to lessen the bill we pay.
