III. LEARNING PROCEDURE

Teaching Hints Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
I. Preliminaries
a) Greetings Good morning, Grade 7 - Earth learners! Good morning, Sir
Arrogancia!
b) Prayer Before we start can someone lead the prayer? (The learners will pray
the "Our Father")
c) Checking of Mrs./Mr. Secretary, Is there any absent today? Good morning, Sir
Attendance Arrogancia! Good
morning classmates,
I’m glad to tell you that
Ok! Very Good! all of my classmates
are present.
d) Review (The teacher will ask) (The learners will
answer)
Okay class as a recap, so who can still
remember our topic yesterday? Our topic yesterday is
about the Heat.
So, heat as a form of energy that can be
transferred through what? The heat can be
transferred through
Okay Very Good Learners! conduction, convection
and radiation.
e) Motivation (The teacher will ask)

Before we proceed to our discussion for today,

let us first have a short game. The game will
be called "Piclue". Are you familiar with that
game?

Okay, Class I will post the pictures on the

board then I will call several students to guess
the words.

Are you ready class? Yes, Sir!

(The teacher will present the picture on the

screen)
Anyone who would like to answer?

Coin-duck-tion
CONDUCTION!

Yes Jack
You’re correct

How about the next one?

Coin-vec-tion
Yes, Avria? CONVECTION!
You’re correct

Next
You, Jane you were raising your hand?

Rat-di-tion
RADIATION!

You’re correct

Next One, Anyone? Yes, Francis

Smile – Battery?
Smile – Charge?
POSITIVE CHARGE!

THAT’S A LOT OF ANSWERS but the last one

is correct HAHAHHA

Ok next picture, You at the back. Devon

NEGATIVE CHARGE!

Woah you got it Right too. Ok Last 2, Please

answer Viy

NUETRAL CHARGE!

Woah you got it also. And for the last One. Yes
Kiana
 Election, Number
three, city. I think the
Word is Electricity.

Thank you, that is Correct

Now you have it, so anyone of the class know

what’s our topic for today based on the answer
from Ice Breaker?
Based on what I
Yes, Daniel observed, our topic for
today is Electricity.

Yes, Exactly

Now we can proceed to our lesson.

II. Lesson Proper
A. Activity The Class will be divided into 2 Groups and (The learners will count
(Group) their going to answer / perform the activity 1 and 2)
entitled “Charged interactions”

Is that clear class?

Yes Sir!
Materials Needed:
 Strong adhesive tape (transparent)
 Smooth wooden table
 Meter stick
 Piece of wood (~1 meter long) to hold
tape strips
 Moistened sponge
Procedure:
1. Using a meter stick, pull off a 40- to 60-
cm piece of adhesive tape and fold a
short section of it (~1 cm) to make a
nonsticky "handle" at that end of the
tape.

2. Lay the tape adhesive side down and

slide your finger along the tape to firmly
attach it to a smooth, dry surface of a
table.

3. Peel the tape from the surface

vigorously pulling up on the handle you
have made on one end. Make sure that
the tape does not curl up around itself
or your fingers.

4. While holding the tape up by the handle

and away from other objects, attach the
tape to the horizontal wooden piece or
the edge of your table. Make sure that
the sticky side does not come in
contact with other objects

5. Bring your finger near, but not touching,

the nonsticky side of the tape. Is there
 any sign of interaction between the
tape and the finger?

6. Try this with another object. Is there

any sign of interaction between the
tape and this object?

7. Prepare another tape as described in

steps 1 to 3.

8. Bring the nonsticky side of the two

charged tapes you prepared near each
other. Do you observe any interaction?

9. Drag a moistened sponge across the

nonsticky side of the tapes and repeat
steps 5, 6 and 8. Do you still observe
any interaction?

10. Record your observations.

You have 10 minutes to work on your tasks

and afterwards a representative of each group
will present your work. Do you understand the
activity?
Yes Sir!
Okay, you may now start.

Activity Proper:
On a piece of bond paper, the group will write
their observations and explanations based on
the given activity.

Post Activity:
Each group will choose their representative or
reporter and share their observation in class. (Each group will do
their task)
B. Analysis (The teacher will gather the work of the (Group 1
learners and she will check if each group got representative
the correct answer.) will present their work)

Job well done Group 1. Clap your hand for (Students will clap their
them. hands)

Next group 2. (Group 2

representative
will present their work)
Job well done Group 2. Clap your hand for
them.

I am so glad that all of the group got the (Students will clap their
correct answers. It seems that you have an hands)
idea about the lesson.

You all deserve a big round of applause! (Students will clap their
hands)
C. Abstraction Types of Charges

The varying atomic composition of different

materials gives them different electrical
properties. One of which is the ability of a
material to lose or gain electrons when they
 come into contact with a different material
through friction.

In activity “Charged interactions”, when you

pulled the tape vigorously from the table,
some of the electrons from the table’s surface
were transferred to the tape. This means that
the table has lost some electrons so it has
become positively charged while the tape
has gained electrons which made it
negatively charged. The process involved is
usually referred to as charging up the material,
and in this particular activity the process used
is charging by friction.

It is important to remember that during the

charging process, ideally, the amount of
charge lost by the table is equal to the
amount of charge gained by the tape. This
is generally true in any charging process. The
idea is known as: The Law of Conservation
of Charge. Charges cannot be created nor
destroyed, but can be transferred from one
material to another. The total charge in a
system must remain constant.

Class, did you understand the lesson?

Yes Sir!
Any Questions clarifications regarding the
topic? None Sir

That’s good to hear class.

D. Application Since we are done discussing Charges, how (The student will copy
its abilities to lose and gain electrons etc. Get and answer the
your paper, copy and answer the question. questions.)

1. What type of charge does a proton

carry?
2. What type of charge does an electron
carry?
3. How does a negatively charged object
react when it comes into contact with a
positively charged object?
4. Can charges be created or destroyed?
5. What happens when two objects with
the same charge come into contact with
each other?

I will give you 20 minutes to finish. And submit

it to me when your finish.
