A. Preliminary Activities “Good morning ma’am!”
“Good Morning Class…”
(One student will lead the prayer)
“Everybody stand for a prayer…”
(Students raise their hand and say present
(Checking of Attendance) as the teacher calls in their name)
“Please say present when your name is called…”
“Please pick up the pieces of paper on the floor…” (Students pick up the pieces of paper)
B. MOTIVATION
“One accurate measurement is worth than a
thousand expert opinions” (The Student will share their thoughts/
C. . LESSON PROPER ideas about the given quotes.)
“Class do you know why are units are important?
Okay dear, Can you tell me why units are
important? Yes Ma’am”
(One of the student answered)
Very Good! “Units are important because it gives great
significant to a certain value…”
(The teacher will give an example through printed
pictures posted on the board)
“Which of the following pictures is not a physical (One of the student will answer)
quantity?”
(Through the pictures the teacher will introduce

the meaning of units and measurements)
A measurement is a quantitative
observation that consists of two parts:
a number and a unit.
Any quantity that can be measured is called
a physical quantity. The measurement of a
physical quantity always involved the
comparison of the quantity to be measured
with a reference standard of the same kind.
This reference standard used for the
comparison is called the unit of the physical
quantity.
Scientific notation- is a way of writing very
large or very small numbers. A number is
written in scientific notation when a
number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by
a power of 10.
Okay for example, 650,000,000 can be
written in scientific notation as 6.5 ✕ 10^8.
Another example 12,302 who can write the

scientific notation of this value? (The student goes to the board and write
1.2302x10^4 as the answer)
Significant figures- are the number of digits in a
value, often a measurement, that contribute to the
degree of accuracy of the value. We start counting
significant figures at the first non-zero digit.
For example, 12, 345 ,678 has 8 significant figures
How about 5347.23 and 12.001 how many

significant figures are there? (The student raise his/her hand to answer)
Okay Very good, now I will discuss the types of

system:
Types of System

4. SI
Do you have any question?
Then let’s proceed to “None ma’am”
SI Units: Fundamental and Derived Units
1. SI units (acronym for the French Le Système
International d’Unités, also known as the metric
system), In SI there are seven fundamental physical
quantity namely the following:
SI Physical Unit Symbol

Quantity
1 Length Metre m
2 Mass Kilogram kg
3 Time Second s
4 Temperature Kelvin K
5 Electric Ampere A
Current
6 Luminous Candela cd
Intensity
7 Amount of Mole mol
Substance
In Metric Prefixes we have smaller units

and bigger units we also have here the
basic units serves as the basis in getting
bigger unit and smaller units. For example,
1km to meter? In converting metrics units,
always look for what unit is asked if it is big
units or small units and look as well it’s
given Unit because by observing these you
can easily convert metric prefixes provided
that you already know those metric
prefixes. Therefore, if you have 1 km and its
bigger unit then you will convert it to meter
which is smaller unit then the value of
meter will increase which 10^3 m or 1000
meter. And vice versa.
