Lesson Plan (Demo)

This detailed lesson plan outlines a 60-minute science lesson on electricity and fuses. The lesson begins with eliciting prior knowledge on electric circuits. Students then watch a video on an electrical fire and interpret a graph. They conduct an experiment in groups to model how fuses prevent overheating by interrupting electric current. Groups present their results and the teacher explains that fuses protect appliances from damage caused by short circuits. To evaluate understanding, students answer multiple choice questions about fuses and circuit protection. The lesson concludes by having students research different types of fuses.

Name:
Date Evaluated:
Evaluator: Learning Area/Domain: Force, Motion and Energy

Topic / Title 1.Electricity-Fuse

Time Allotment 60 mins

Learning Competencies/Objectives: explain the function of fuse, circuit breaker, earthing, and double
insulation in the home in the home

S8FE-II-33

At the end of the cycle, the students should be able to:


1. define what is fuse;
2. explain the function of fuse in the home; and
3. show why fuses are important safeguards against electrical fires.

ELICIT (5mins.) MATERIALS


 Review previous lesson about electric circuit, PPT

ENGAGE (10mins.)
 At the start of the session, the teacher will show the teacher show a video Video Clip
clip about a burning establishment. Picture
 Let the students reflect after watching the video.
 Let the student interpret the graph.

-
EXPLORE (15mins.)
Designing the Activity: Materials needed per
 Divide the class into 5 groups. Using the materials that they prepared, let group:
them perform the activity below:
 Read the instructions reflected on your LAS. Balloon , Alumium
 Using the given materials, follow the set up procedure. Foil, Battery, Aligator
Clip, Bulb, and Light
Refer to Learners Activity Sheet. Receptacle

EXPLAIN (10 mins.)LANGUAGE


Group Presentation: Manila Paper
 Each group will present their data to the class. Markers
 Let the four groups compare and analyze their results.
 Ask students to generate a conclusion from their result.

Guide Question:

1. Why fuse is important in a circuit?

1
2. What happens to the alligator clips when short circuit is produced?
3. What does the balloon assembly represents in the activity?
4. What causes the balloon to melt and pop up?
5. What happens to the metal strips as the balloon burst?
6. What is the function of fuse in a circuit?
7.What is an indication that your circuit is complete?

ELABORATE (10mins.)

 Present the PowerPoint on the Fuse Key Concept PowerPoint


 Summarize the concept through discussion. Presentation
 Give emphasis on the following concept:

 Fuse is important because it protects the appliances from being


damaged (due to too much current or flowing electricity), produced
by short circuit, which causes over heating that can blow up the
appliance.
 Fuse breaks circuit connection to avoid overheating and fire.
 Fuse and circuit breaker both serve to protect an overload electrical
circuit by interrupting the flow of electricity.

EVALUATE (5mins.)
Multiple choices. Select the best answer.

1. Which of the followingdevices that can protect an overload electrical


circuit?
a. battery b. bulb c. connecting wire d. fuse
2. What will happen to the bulb, if there is a short circuit?
a. the bulb will still light up
b. the bulb will burst
c. the bulb will not light up
d. none of the above
3. Which of the following are the main characteristics of a fuse element?
a. Low melting point
b. High conductivity
c. Least deterioration due to oxidation
d. All of the above

4. Using a high current fuse in a low current appliance is very


a. safe
b. dangerous
c. necessary
d. complicated
5. Which of the following is NOT one of the purposes of a fuse or circuit
breaker?
a. To protect appliances against power surges
b. To prevent metal cases from becoming electrified
c. To prevent electrocution
d. To allow you to reduce the power going to an appliance

EXTEND (5mins.)VALUES
 Research on the different type of fuses. Pen and paper
