Everybody please stand and let us pray first…. In the name of the Father, the Son, and
B. Greeting the Holy Spirit. Amen! Our Father...
Good morning everybody!
Before you take your seats kindly pick up some Good morning, Sir!
pieces of paper under your chairs and arrange
them properly.
Now, everybody kindly read our classroom
agreement.

attendance.
Who is absent today?
( Checking of attendance)

All are present, Sir.

Very good.

D. REVIEW
Okay, class, before we proceed to our next
topic, who can recall the last topic?
(Students raising their hands)
Yes, Lloyd?

The last topic was all about wave

interaction -Lloyd

That’s right Lloyd takes a set.

What have you learned from the previous lesson?

(Students are raising their hands)

Yes, Anival?

Sir, wave interaction occurs when waves

pass from one medium to another.

Another question, can sound waves and light

waves interfere?
Another hand from the group?

Okay, Jane stand up.

Yes, sir Light and sound waves can

interfere and it occurs when two waves
of very similar frequency and amplitude
occupy the same physical space. -Jane

Very good answer, thank you.

Last question, what are the types of interaction?

Sir! The types of interaction are

reflection, diffraction, and refraction. -
Jenny
Okay, thank you.
I think you have already learned about our last
topic so let us proceed?

E. MOTIVATION
But, before we proceed to our topic this
morning. Since I bring my guitar here, let me have
a bonding with you to sing with me for a while?

What song do you want to sing? Yes, Sir!

(Stuck on you, Sir!)

Okay, let us sing this…

(Singing while playing the guitar)

(Students are singing)

Okay, that’s enough…

Class, what do you think is the reason why when I

strum my guitar it produces sound? It’s logic,
right? But through this topic, you can answer it.

If you are wondering why we have this kind of

bonding now. It is part of our topic today.

Is anyone who can guess what our topic is?

Sir! I guess it’s all about frequency Sir!

-Clark
You hit it Clark, thank you. Take a set.

LESSON PROPER
A. Activity

Okay, class let us have our activity an activity called

‘’PLUCK ME’’, in the count of five you will group
yourselves in the group I assigned you last
meeting, and choose your leader. Understand?

Yes, Sir!
INSTRUCTION: In this activity, I will allow you to
use my guitar. Since Justin also brought his guitar,
the group of Justin will use it as their material and
the other group will use mine.

and this is what you do;

1. Pluck the guitar string twice
from E to e or from thick
strings to thin strings.

2. Reverse Pluck the guitar string

twice from e to E or from thin
strings to thick strings.

3. Observe the different pitches

or frequencies of each string.

4. Is the frequency from thick to

thin strings decreasing or
increasing? Why or why not?
What is the reason why a thin
string has a higher frequency
than a thick string?

5. Collaborate your answer and

choose a presenter to explain.

I will give you 5min. To do it.

Am I clear with my instruction?

Yes, Sir!

Okay, it’s already time.

Now, as a group present and explain
your answers here in front. I will give
you 5mins. Each group to explain.

Your grades as a group are rated as

this rubric.

(students are doing activity)

 Frequency is the rate of the sound which
something occurs over a particular time –
Analysis Marry Cris

Now, from our activity, in your observation what is

the frequency? (applause)

Sir! Frequency depends on the tension,

force, length, and width of an object that
Very good marry… (applause) causes the number of waves that pass.
- Sarah

Another hand?
(applause)

Okay, thank you, Sarah (applause) No, sir! Frequency occurs in all kinds of
waves.

Is frequency only happening on sound?

(answer vary)
Okay, thank you. Take a set.

What is the importance of frequency in our daily

life?

Okay, I think you all understand what is frequency,

now let us go deeper into our topic.

Section C: Content/procedures/sequence
Abstraction

-The source of any sound is a VIBRATING OBJECT.

So that, when you pluck a guitar string, standing
waves will be produced which have NODES AND
ANTINODES.
NODE- a point along with a standing wave where
the wave has minimum amplitude. For example, a
guitarist is changing the position of the node
through frets.
ANTINODE- a region of maximum amplitude
situated between adjacent nodes in a vibrating
body.
- The frequency of vibration in which
standing waves are produced the natural
frequency or resonant frequency.
- Each material has its resonant frequency
which depends on some characteristics.
- Resonant frequency of a material does not
depend on how the material strength is
struck.
The natural frequency of musical
instruments is sometimes referred to as
the harmonics of the instrument. An
instrument can be forced into vibrating at
one of its harmonics (with one of its
standing wave patterns) if another
interconnected object pushes it with one
of those frequencies. This is known as
resonance.

Examples:
1. When somebody strikes one(tuning for A)
of the two similar tuning forks the sound
waves created will reach tuning fork B that
will set its sympathetic vibration.
2. The familiar sound of the sea that is heard
when a seashell is placed up to your ear is
also explained by resonance.

3. Production of sound in a musical

instrument is caused by resonance.

4. A sound from a speaker which matches the

natural frequency of the wine glass can
shatter the glass.
FACTORS AFFECTING FREQUENCY OF SOUND
WAVES

Objects emit sounds when subjected to vibration

at a certain frequency also called a pitch. The
frequency emitted by an object depends on these
factors;

1. Length
Materials with shorter lengths vibrate
faster thus producing higher frequency.
Longer materials produce lower frequency.

2. Diameter
Materials with bigger diameters produce
lower frequencies.

3. Density/kinds of material
Different materials of the same size
produce different sound frequencies.

4. Tension
String with greater tension produces
higher frequency compared to lesser
tension.
Section D: Closure

Application
Now, we will be playing “MESSAGE RELAY.”
MECHANICS:
1. All students must participate in the game.
2. Back to grouping
3. The first person will read a word that I give
on the table and pass the word with the
audible frequency to the next member to
perceive the message clearly and, the Last
person will write the correct answer to the
scratch and post it on the board. The many
answers to correct the more grades to
gain.
