RPH ON SIMULATION

Lesson Plan

YEAR : Form 1

DATE :

TIME  : 10.20 – 11.00 a.m (40 minutes)

NO. OF. STUDENT   : 30

THEME: Matter In Nature

 LEARNING AREA: 1. Matter

LEARNING  OBJECTIVE: 1.3 Understanding the concept of density.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

At the end of the lesson, student is able to:

1. Define density
2. Explain why some objects and liquids float
3. Solve simple problems related to density
4. Carry out activities to explore the densities of objects and liquids

PRIOR KNOWLEDGE:

1. Students have learnt on what is mass is about.
2. Students have learnt about volume of an object.

Teaching and Learning Resources.

APPARATUS	AMOUNT
1. Simulation tool	1
2. LCD/Screen	1

Phase/ Time	Lesson Content	Teaching and learning activity	Note
Eliciting of Ideas    (5minutes)	1. Predict whether an object will     sink or float when placed in a     liquid, given densities of the     object and liquid 2. Short video is about mass,          volume and density	1. Teacher play a video to elicit student ideas. 2. Students are required to watch the video. 3. Teacher and students discuss about the video.	Teaching Resources (TLR): - video SPS : - Observing - Communication - Making inferences - Defining   Operationally
Restructuring of Ideas (20 - 25 minutes)	1) Relate the buoyant force on an         object to the weight of liquid        it displaces 2) Describe how the buoyant      force is related to an object's         relative density to the fluid 3) Predict the weight of a       completely or partially       submerged object of known     mass and volume 4) Describe the forces that act on      a completely or partially     submerged object Simulation tool is about: Buoyancy and density	1) Teacher give explaination        about buoyant force of an      object  and relate it to      object density to the fluid      by using simulation        software. 2) Student listen to the        explaination given by      teacher and responds        during the lesson.	Teaching Resources (TLR): - Simulation     Software - Text book SPS : - Observation - Communication - Classifying - Measuring and     Using Numbers - Inferring - Predicting
Application of Ideas (5minutes)	Test student’s understanding by: Ask student to explain how an          object that is more dense than water can be kept a float by placing it on an object that is less dense than water.	1) Teacher ask student the     answer. 2) Students discuss the        question with together.	Teaching Resources (TLR): - Simulation    Software - Text book SPS : - Communication - Interpreting Data - Hypothesising
Conclusion (5 minutes)	Student will be ask on what they     have learn after using the     simulation software.	- Teacher concluded the     lesson by summarize     about concept of density. - Students together with    teacher summarizes the    lesson	SPS : - Communication - Making conclusion Science attitude and noble values : Thanked God for His creating balance of nature.
Extension and Reflection	Exercises were given as   homework.	-Teacher gives exercises for students. -Students will finish the exercises as homework.
