ACTIVITY 1: Electromagnetic Wave Model

Learning Competency: Compare the relative wavelengths of different forms of

electromagnetic waves (S10FE-IIa-47) S10FE-IIa-47.2

Objectives: At the end of the activity you should be able to :

1. create a model of EM Wave; and

2. demonstrate patience in doing tasks.
II. MATERIALS:

Two colors of drinking straws (red- Electric field, blue- Magnetic field)
Cartolina ( red – Electric field, blue Magnetic field )
Scissors Bamboo stick ( 1meter) Stapler Staple wire
III. PROCEDURES:

1. Cut the straws with their corresponding sizes following the shape and color of the
Electromagnetic wave.
2. Make (2) strips of paper from cartolina ( red and blue ) ( 1meter in length and 6 cm
in width ).
3. Staple strips of paper to the straws ( end cut ).
4. Attach the straws to the bamboo stick.

REFLECTIVE ACTIVITY

Activity 3: Safety with Gadgets

Learning Competency: Compare the relative wavelengths of different forms of electromagnetic

waves (S10FE-IIa-47)

Objectives: at the end of the activity the learner should be able to realize the importance
of proper utilization of electromagnetic waves.

Make a short reflection about the issue presented below: Write your answer on a
separate sheet of paper.
Worry or worry not on
Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Exposure?

Most of us are used to the

conveniences of modern life. But few of us
are aware of the possible health risks
presented by the gadgets that make our
world work.
It turns out that our cell phones, Wi-
Fi routers, computers, and other appliances M
send out a stream of invisible energy (EM)
waves that some experts are concerned
about. Should we be concerned?
Several studies on low-frequency
EMFs suggest that these energy fields may
cause various neurological and psychiatric
problems in people. Studies found a link
between EMF exposure and changes in
human nerve function throughout the body,
affecting things like sleep and mood.
According to the latest research, EMFs are
unlikely to cause any adverse health effects.
You should feel safe using your cell phone,
and appliances.

Closure: Suggest ways on how you can be protected with EMF’s exposure and be prevented
from any adverse health effects.
