III. Learning Strategies

Teacher’s Strategies Student’s Response

1. Daily Routine

a) Greetings “Good morning Teacher Aira!”

“Good morning class!"

b) Checking of attendance “None ma’am.”

“Secretary, do we have any absentees?”

2. Review
“’Last time, we have discussed
Centripetal Force and Rotational
Kinematics, to check if you really
understand the lesson yesterday, I have
here a short activity.”

“Direction: Read the statement and

identify if it is true, if false, rephrase the
statement to make it correct.”

“Is that clear?” “Yes, Ma’am!”

“Okay! Let’s start.”

“1. According to Newton’s second

law of motion, acceleration is
produced by a net force. The net force
and the acceleration must be in the
same direction.”

“What should be the answer?” “TRUE”

“Correct. Next.”

“2. If second law of motion is applied

to uniform circular motion, the
acceleration becomes the centripetal
acceleration and the net force.”

“What should be the answer?” “TRUE”

“Correct. Next.”
“3. Action is a push or pull acting
upon an object.”

“What should be the answer?” “FALSE. Force is the push or pull

acting upon an object.”

“Very good! Next.”

“4. The centripetal force is the force

that maintains the circular path of the
object.”

“What should be the answer?” “TRUE.”

“Correct. Next.”

“5. If the centripetal force is zero, the

object will not move in a straight
line.”

“What should be the answer?” “FALSE. If the centripetal force is

zero, the object will move in a straight
“Correct! Last question.” line.”

“6. Distance is the length of path covered

by a moving object.”

“What should be the answer?” “TRUE.”

“Correct! Very good everyone! It seems
that you really understand the previous
lesson.”

“Is there any other question regarding the “None, Teacher Aira.”
previous lesson?”

3. Lesson Proper
A. Engage
“Is there someone who is working here?” “students will answer the question…
some may answer that they are
working and some may not”

“Do you have any idea about work? Will “students will give their opinion…”
you share your thoughts about it?” “work – activity involving mental and
physical effort done in order to
achieve a purpose or result.”
“work – a task or tasks to be
undertaken, something a person or
thing has to do.”

“Class, in physics, you all probably

worked at some point of time, but you
just don’t know it.”

B. Explore
“Now, I have here an activity. Read the
direction”
“Directions: Describe and compare
the two scenarios shown.”
 “Okay, I am going to show two scenarios “Yes, Ma’am!”
in which you are going to describe and
compare them from one another. Is the
direction clear?”

“Okay, let’s have the first scenario.” “Ma’am, based from the given
Scenario 1: scenario, the boy pushes the block.”

“Correct, so, what the boy is applying

“Teacher, I think the boy is applying
to push the block?”
force to the object.”

“Exactly! Again, based on our

“Force is a push or pull acting upon an
previous lessons about force, what do
object.”
you mean by force?”

“Good! Meaning, the first scenario

shows that a boy is pushing the block
by applying force. How about the
second scenario?”

Scenario 2
“Ma’am, based from the given
scenario, the boy pushes the block
which causes it to move from one
place to another.”
“Very good! Did he also apply force “Yes, Teacher Aira.”
to the object?”

“Okay, the boy also applies force to

the object by pushing the block.”

“You have also noticed that the block “The force applied by the boy to the
or the object move from one place to object causes it to move from one
another when being pushed, what place to another.”
does that mean?”

“Exactly! This means that the force “Distance is the length of path
can move the object to cover a travelled by a moving object measured
distance. So, what do you mean by in meters.”
distance based from your previous
lessons?”

“Correct! So, how will you compare “The first scenario shows the
the first and second scenario?” application of force to the object
without moving the object, while the
second scenario shows the application
of force to the object causing it to
move and cover a distance.”

“Very good!”
“Scenario 2 shows the application of
force to the object causing it to move
and cover a distance which known as
WORK.

“Could we also consider the first “No, Teacher Aira.”

scenario as work?

“Why?” “Because the block that is being

pushed did not move from one place to
another.”

“Very good, we cannot consider as

work because it didn’t travel a
distance when force is applied to the
object.”

“Today, we are going to talk about

Work, specifically, Work where force
and the work done are in the same
direction, and here are our objectives
for today. Kindly read.”

“ Today’s objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the
learners should be able to do the
following:
a. define and calculate work
b. identify situations in
which work is done and
situations in which no
work is done
c. site situations in which
work is done in everyday
life”
C. Explain
“Class, based from the activity, how “Work is the product of force acting
will you describe work?” upon an object causing it to move from
one place to another.”

“Good! Or work is a quantity that

exists whenever a force that acts upon
an object causes it to move and cover
a distance.”

“Understand?” “Yes, Teacher Aira.”

“Okay class, now I have here another

activity, kindly read the direction.”

“Direction: The students will identify

if the given situation shows that work
is done or no work is done.”

“Is the direction clear?” “Yes!”

“Now. Let’s start. Let’s have the first

situation”

1. Throwing a ball to the basket

“Work is done.”
 “Correct. Why?” “Because the boy throw the ball which
means he applied force to the object,
and the ball shoots in the basket, the
ball move from the boy to the basket
that means it travels a distance.”

2. Sleeping on the bed “No work is done.”

“Correct. Why?” “Because the girl only sleeps, maybe,

there is an application of force but the
girl does not move while sleeping
that’s why she did not travel a
distance.”

3. Pushing a toy car forward “Work is done.”

“Correct. Why?” “Because the boy pushed the toy car

which means he applied force to the
object, and the toy car moves forward
that means it travels a distance.”
4. A girl surfing the net “No work is done.”

“Because the girl only surf the net,

“Correct. Why?”
maybe, there is an application of force
but the girl does not move while
surfing the net that’s why she did not
travel a distance.”

“Okay, it seems that you already

knew how to identify situations where
work is done and where work is not
done. Very good class!”

“Now, based from what you have said

earlier, that work is the product of
force acting upon an object causing it
to move from one place to another,
how will you calculate work?”

“Exactly! You just have to multiply

“Work is equal to force times distance
the force acting on an object and the
or W = F x d.”
distance it travelled.”

“Now, let’s have sample problem and

let’s try to answer it. Read.”
1. A block is pushed by a force of
200 Newton. The distance
travelled by the block is 2 meters.
What is the work done on the
block?

“What are the given in the sample

problem?” “The given are force which has 200
Newton and distance which is 2
meters.”
“Correct!” What is unknown in the
sample problem?” “The unknown in the sample
problem is work.”
“Correct! Again, what formula or
equation we are going to use to get “The formula to use should be
work?” Work = Force x distance.”

“Good! Now solve! What is the

correct answer?” “The correct answer is 400 N.m.”

“Correct! 400 Newton.meter or 400

Joules, Joules is also the unit used for
work. That means 1 Joule is equal to
the work done by a force of 1 Newton
acting through 1 meter.”

“The unit Joule for work is named

after whom? Do you have an idea?” “The unit Joule is named in honor of
the English physicist James Prescott
“Very good!” Joule.”
“Now, let’s have another sample
problem. Kindly read.”

2. A person pulls a block of 2 meters

along a horizontal surface by a
constant force of 20 N. Determine
the work done by force acting on
the block.

“Okay, what are the given?”

“The given are force of 20 N and
distance of 2 m.”
“Correct! What is unknown in the
sample problem?” “The unknown in the sample
problem is work.”
“Correct! What formula to use to get
work?” “W = F x d”

“Correct! Now, solve. What is the

correct answer?” “The correct answer is 40 Joules.”

“Very good! The correct answer is 40

Joules.”

“Now, let’s have another sample

problem. Kindly read.”

3. Based from the figure below, if

work done by net force is 375
Joules, determine object’s
 distance.

250 N

“Now, what are the given?”

“The given are work which is equal

to 375 Joules and force of 250 N.”
“Correct! What is unknown in the
sample problem?” “The unknown in the sample
problem is the distance.”

“Correct! So, what should be the

formula to get the distance?” “d = W / F”

“Exactly! How did you derive the

formula to get the distance?” “From the original formula of W =
Fd, I just divide F both sides.”
“Very good! How about if the sample
problem is looking for force, what “F = W / d”
should be the formula?”

“Very good! Now, solve. What is the

correct answer?” “The distance travelled by the
moving car is 1.5 meter.”
“Correct!”

“Now, do you have any question?”

“None.”
D. Elaborate
 “Again, what do you mean by work?”
“Work is a quantity that exists
whenever a force that acts upon an
object causes it to move and cover a
distance.”
“Very good!”

“Now, can you site situations where

work is done?” “Throwing a ball on a basket.”

“Good! What else?”

“Lifting a notebook from the bag to the
desk.”
“Correct! What else?”
“Passing a ball to a team mate.”
“Good!”

“Now, how will you calculate work?”

“To get work, multiply the force acting
upon an object and the distance it
travelled.”
“Definitely!”

“Is everything clear now?

“Yes, Teacher Aira!”
“Do you have any question?”
“None.”
4. Real Life Application

“Alright! Now, I want you to site

 activities that you do every day where
work is done, I am going to call you
one by one. Let’s start.”

“The teacher will call the students

one by one...” “The students will give their own
answer to the class...”
“Very good, thank you class.”

“Now, let’s have your quiz, I am

going to send a five-item quiz, type
the letter of the correct answer. You
only have 5 minutes to answer.”
