Surname2
6. Not following instructions (from the general directions) will have corresponding demerit
of 2 points for each violation even if it is not included in the rubrics provided for the
activity.

OBJECTIVES:

1. Students will be able to identify the parts of curve mirrors.

2. Students will be able to differentiate concave and convex mirror.
3. Students will be able to draw a ray diagramming showing how image formation in curve
mirrors.
4. Students will be able to describe the image formed in curve mirrors at different location.

PROCEDURES:
INSTRUCTION: This task involves the printed answer sheet for you to gather information that you need to answer
the guide questions. But you can also draw the activity on a separate sheet of paper if printed
answer sheet is not available. Accomplish all the specific steps that follow and refer to the scoring
rubric below in answering the questions.
PART A: PARTS OF CURVE MIRRORS
