A. Engage
Good morning grade 10 students! Good morning teacher!
Before we start our lesson for today, let’s
have our prayer. Prayer leader please lead in
front. (Students do as told)

How are you feeling today, class? I've

included images of emoji’s to help you rate
how you feel today. So, make the right facial
expressions in my count. Are you ready for Yes, teacher!
this?

(Teacher does the counting) (Students do as told)

Now class, before we start our formal

discussion, I want you to clean up your area,
pick up pieces of paper and arrange your
chairs properly. In a count of 5. (Students do as told)
(Teacher does the counting)

Alright! As this is our first meeting, allow me

to introduce myself. My name is Gleneise
Mae D. Ponce, and you can call me
Teacher Glen or Gleneise.

Now, everyone say my name, altogether.

Teacher Gleneise/ Teacher Glen
Very good, so as we go through our
discussion I want all of you to remember my
only rule for this class. These are abbreviated
as G. L. E. N., G stands for be gracious. L
stands for listen. E stands for enthusiasm and
N stands for No loitering inside the
classroom.
Yes, teacher!
Are we clear on this class?

1. Review
Very good! So last meeting you’ve discuss
about the earthquakes and faults.
Now to test if you really understand the topic,
let us have an activity. “Quakes and Quacks”

Directions: Write “Quake” if the statement is

correct, otherwise, write “Quack” if the
statement is incorrect. You only have 1min to
answer.

Is the direction clear, class? Yes teacher!

1. Reverse fault produces a horizontal Possible Answers:

displacement. 1. Quack
2. The ‘break’ between the grounds is a 2. Quake
“fault”. 3. Quack
3. A fault is described as the sudden 4. Quake
shaking and trembling caused by the 5. Quack
sudden release of energy from inside the
earth.
4. A normal fault is a response to
extension.
5. Normal faults are caused by
compression stress

Very good! Class, you scored 5/5 that means

excellent! This clearly shows that you really
understood the previous discussion. So,
because of this, all of you deserve a 5 Big
claps. Ready, begin. (Students do as told)
Do you have any questions about the
previous topic? None, teacher.

2. Motivation
I have here art pictures.

(Students do as told)

What do you
observe in all the pictures?
That’s right, wave are disturbances that There’s a wave
travels through either a medium or a vacuum
in space.
Just like the water in a swimming pool, when
you dive in through it, you are generating
little waves that moves outward from your
position.

Now, do you want to learn more about

waves? Yes, teacher!

3. Statement of the Subject

Matter and Aims
That’s great to hear, now for today’s
discussion we’re going to talk about waves.

I want you to listen and follow the rules so

that by the end of the discussion, you will
have achieved the following goals:
a. differentiate transverse from
longitudinal waves, and
mechanical from
electromagnetic waves;
b. illustrate the characteristics of
a wave propagating
c. examine the applications of
wave types in real-world
 situations
Are the objectives clear to you, class?

B. Explore Yes, teacher!

To achieve our objectives, let us have our
first activity. The title for this activity is,
“Waves in Slinky”

Mechanics:
1. The class will be group into 2 groups.
2. Each group will perform the different
types of waves.
3. After performing, answer the
following questions.
4. The class would be given 3 minutes to
finish the activity.
5. Assign one representative and one
support person to perform the activity
in front and answer the following
questions. Possible Answers;
1. Wave 1 refers to a longitudinal

type of wave is wave 2? Whereas, transverse wave moves
2. How these waves do move? perpendicular to the direction of the
wave.
Are the mechanics clear, class?

Alright! In a count of five, everyone should Yes, teacher!

be in there group.
(Student do as told)
C. Explain
Wonderful! Thank you everyone for the
insightful presentation. So, for that lets give a
good job clap for each one of you.

Alright! So, based on the performance earlier (Student do as told)

waves travel along the slinky in parallel or
perpendicular direction. With the used of
medium on traveling the waves that is called
the mechanical waves. Which defines a wave
that requires a medium or any matter in order
for its energy to travel.

But how about these kind of waves?

A person is using their cellphone to make a
call. Student is watching TV at the
classroom. Or a doctor is performing an X-
ray on a patient. What category does this
wave belongs to?

That’s correct! Electromagnetic waves is Electromagnetic waves teacher.

formed to the interaction of electric and
magnetic fields. Let’s give angel clap to
(student’s name). Begin!

Considering the waves in a medium. Waves (Student do as told)

are described based on the measurements of
their amplitude, wavelength, phase, period
and frequency.
So, let’s analyze a longitudinal wave
travelling through a spring. This
characteristic of a wave that refers to the
distance between the normal line and the tip
of a crest or trough, is refer to? The distance between the normal line
and the tip of a crest or trough is called

between the two crests or two troughs?
The distance between the two crests or

points that are travelling with the same speed,
displacement, and height in the same
direction? The two wave points that are travelling
with the same speed, displacement,
and height in the same direction is

that one crest or trough completes one cycle?
A wave that refers to the time that one

A wave that defines the number of full
wavelengths is called the frequency.
D. Elaborate

Excellent work everyone! Based on our

discussion who can tell me the definition of a
wave?
Very good, Now, who can give me the two
types of a wave?
A wave are disturbances that travels
through either a medium or a vacuum
in space.
The two types of a wave are
What do you mean by longitudinal wave? longitudinal and transverse waves.

Wonderful! How about the transverse wave?
Excellent! Now, we need to categorize the
different waves. Give me the two categories
of waves?
Give me one example of a mechanical wave?
Very good! How about the electromagnetic
wave?
Perfect! Lastly, in measuring the wave, give
me all the characteristics of a wave?
Magnificent! Give our self a love clap, since
we love our self. Begin!
Do you have any questions about our topic,
class?
Value Integration
Longitudinal wave moves parallel to
the direction of the waves travels.
Transverse wave moves perpendicular
to the direction of the wave.
The two categories of waves are
mechanical and Electromagnetic
waves.
Possible answer:
An example of mechanical wave is
strumming the guitar.
An example of electromagnetic wave
is microwave.
The characteristics of a wave are
amplitude, wavelength, phase, period,
and frequency.
(Student do as told)
None, teacher.

Alright! Now learning about the topic, what

application can you think of when we think
about waves?

Can you give me an example about this The waves in the ocean, teacher.
certain applications?

So, what type of wave is the ocean wave It is the mechanical wave, teacher.
refers to?

So, remember, class, that studying about

different sorts of waves can help you grasp
other concepts in life, such as why the sky is
blue. Or how come the blackboard appears
green rather than black?
As a result, everything in our environment is
made up of waves. We may not be able to see
it with our eyes, but others may have a
medium that can incorporate its energy. The
mechanical wave is one example of this.
 So, do you have any questions about the
topic, class?
None, teacher!
If none, to check your personal mastery on
our topic let us have an activity. The title of
our activity is “True- Waves, False-Waves”.
Please read the directions.

E. Evaluation
Direction: Write the capital letter
“TW” if the statement is correct, or write
“FW” if the statement is incorrect and supply
the correct word/phrase to make the
statement correct (e.g., FW - fault). You only
have five seconds for each item.

1. Waves can only travel through a

medium such as air, water, or a solid.
2. The frequency of a wave is the
distance between two adjacent peaks
or troughs.
3. The wavelength of a wave is the time
it takes for one complete wave cycle
to pass a given point.
4. Light waves are transverse waves
5. The amplitude of a wave is the
distance between its peak and trough.
6. Electromagnetic waves require a
medium to travel through.
7. Example of electromagnetic wave is
microwave.
8. Example of mechanical wave is X-
ray.
9. Longitudinal waves travels
perpendicular.
10. Transverse waves travels in a
vacuum.

IV. Assignment
“Wave Sort”
Directions: With the same group earlier, create your own set of wave cards (limit to 5), including
different types of waves and properties, and then exchange them with other groups to sort and
evaluate. Present your answers for our next meeting.
