Quarter 3 – Module 2
Force in Action
Introductory Message
For the facilitator:
Welcome to the Science-Grade 1 SSES Alternative
Delivery Mode (ADM) module on Force in Action.
This module was collaboratively designed,
developed and reviewed by educators both from public
and private institutions to assist you, the teacher or
facilitator in helping the learners meet the standards set
by the K to 12 Curriculum while overcoming their personal,
social, and economic constraints in schooling.
This learning resource hopes to engage the learners
into guided and independent learning activities at their
own pace and time. Furthermore, this also aims to help
learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while
taking into consideration their needs and circumstances.
In addition to the material in the main text, you will
also see this box in the body of the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies
that will help you in guiding the learners.
As a facilitator, you are expected to orient the
learners on how to use this module. You also need to
keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to
manage their own learning. Furthermore, you are
expected to encourage and assist the learners as they do
the tasks included in the module.
