I. OBJECTIVES 1. describe in words the position of an object;
2. define point of reference;
3. describe motion through visuals – diagrams and graphs;
4. describe the motion of an object in terms of the distance it travelled;
5. differentiate distance and displacement.
A. Content Standards The learners demonstrate an understanding ofmotion in one direction.
B. Performance Standards Conduct a forum mitigation and disaster risk reduction.
C. Learning Competencies Describe the motion of an object in terms of distance and displacement, speed or velocity and acceleration.
- Let the students define point of reference in their own words and - A point of reference is something that seems steady that is used to
its importance. compare the position of an object.
- Question C:
- Let the students answer the following questions: The position of the dog is at -10 m.
C. What is the position of the dog? - Question D:
D. What is the position of the tree? The position of the tree is at 5 m.

F. What is the position of the tree with respect to the dog? The dog is 25 meters to the left of the house.
- Question F:
The tree is 15 meters to the right of the dog.

F. Developing Mastery EXPLAIN - Encourage the students to answer the following questions and use
these questions as points for discussion.
A. What have you noticed about the distance and the A. Displacement always follows a straight line. Distance does not always
displacement in the given examples? follow a straight line.
B. When can displacement be equal to distance? B. When the path travelled is a straight line.
C. Can displacement be greater than distance? Why? C. No, it can be shorter but it cannot be greater than the distance. Because

distances? What will be their displacement? D. Their total distances will increase two times (will double) but their
displacements will become zero.
G. Finding practical - Define distance and displacement.
applications of concepts & o Distance refers to the length of the entire path that the
skills in daily living object travelled.
H. Making generalizations
o Displacement refers to the shortest distance between the

lesson object’s two positions, like the distance between its
point of origin and its point of destination, no matter
ELABORATE what path it took to get to that destination.
- Discussion of distance-time graph and displacement-time graph.
o When a graph is plotted in terms of the distance
travelled by the object and the time it took to cover such
distance, the graph can be called distance-time graph. If
the graph is plotted in terms of displacement and time, it
is called displacement-time graph.
- Refer to the graph.
- What is the displacement of the object after 2 seconds? - 2 meters
- What is its displacement after 6 seconds? - 0
- How will you describe the motion of the object between 0s and - Between 0s and 2s, the object is moving.
2s, between 2s and 4s, and between 4s and 6s? Between 2s and 4s, the object is at rest.
Between 4s and 6s the object returns to its original position.
I. Evaluating Learning EVALUATE Checkup quiz!
- The arrows represent the different distances covered by the
students.
1. Who among the students covers the longest distance?
2. And who has greatest displacement?
Answer:
1. Student C (12 meters)
2. Student C (8 meters)
