DATE & SECTION LEARNING AREA LEARNING COMPETENCY
SCIENCE 8
Electrical Connections Explain the advantages and
and Safety in Using disadvantages of series and parallel
Electricity connections in homes (S8FE -li –
31)
Explain the functions of circuit
breakers, fuses, earthing, double
insulation, and other safety devices
in the home (S8FE -li – 33)
LEARNING TASK MODE OF DELIVERY
 LET’S LEARN (Pre-Test 1- 15)
- Multiple Choice: Read and answer the Send outputs to FB
questions carefully. GROUP/MESSENGER account
- Pp. 4-6 provided by the teacher. Have
the parent hand-in the output to
Lesson 1: Electrical Connections the teacher in school for modular
or send screenshot using FB
 LET’S RECALL messenger.
“EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED”
- Using a concept diagram is one of the
best methods to summarize the concept
of a certain topic and to show the
connection of the words based on your
own understanding.
- Pp. 6

 LET’S EXPLORE
“TIE THE KNOTS”
- Connect the ammeter (Figure 1) and
voltmeter (Figure 2) properly. Use blue
pen to connect the negative terminals
(dots) and red pen for positive terminals
(dots).
- Pp. 7

 LET’S ELABORATE
- READ the lecture. DEFINE words in
bold and italicized form based on how
they were used in the module.
- An electric circuit is a conducting loop
in which current can transfer electrical
energy from suitable source to a
 functional and useful load.
- Series and parallel connections are
governed by the rules in terms of total
current, total voltage and total
resistance.
- Series and parallel circuits can be
described and illustrated using
diagrams called schematic diagrams. It
uses symbols for the components of the
circuit.
-
Lesson 2: Safety in Using Electricity

- Electricity has offered the human race

with tremendous convenience in life, on
the other hand it can also bring people
into great danger if not used properly
such as electric shock and or fire that
would vanish everything people have,
even lives
- Pp. 8 – 11

 LET’S DIG
“CIRCUIT SCHEMATICS”
- This activity will help you practice your
skills in constructing a schematic
diagram.
- Pp. 11

 LET’S DIG IN
“STATIC vs CURRENT?”
- This activity consists pictures that have
something to do with static and current
electricity. It aims to enhance your
visualization of the worded discussion
about static and current electricity.
- Pp. 12

 LET’S REMEMBER
A. COMPARING SERIES AND PARALLEL
CONNECTIONS”
This activity will sum up your knowledge about
Series and parallel connections. Copy and fill out
 the table of comparison for series and parallel
connections.
- Pp. 13

B. WORD BANK
- This activity will also help you
strengthen your knowledge on the terms
and vocabularies used in this module.
What you are going to do is, copy the
descriptions then select from the list the
word it is referring to. Have Fun!
- Pp.13

 LET’S APPLY
“MY VIRTUAL SERIES AND PARALLEL
MODELS”
- This activity will train you further in
constructing your own electrical circuit
virtually using a cellphone application
that can be downloaded from play store
and this application does not require
internet connection to use it after
downloading
- Pp. 14

 LET’S EVALUATE (Post Test 1 -15)

- Multiple Choice: Read and answer the
questions carefully
- Pp. 22-24

 LET’S EXTEND
- Practice makes BETTER! Take some
more exercises to strengthen your
knowledge Reflect by answering the
scenario. “A battery causes electric
charge to flow through a circuit. The
flow of electric charge is of central
importance to modern way of life.
Consider a vital organ of the body which
is the heart. Why can we say that the
heart acts like a battery?”
- Pp. 17
