2. Motivation
Show pictures of appliances that can be seen at home.
Questions:
What makes these things work?
What is electricity?
Aside from the pictures above, how do you use electricity at
home?
Electricity is both a basic part of nature and one of the most widely used
forms of energy. It was discovered by William Gilbert. All electrical
appliances require electricity to function such as television, electric fan,
vacuum cleaner, and many more. At present, we cannot live without
electricity. Electrical energy is used at home, in industry, in
communication, in transportation, in medicine, and in science.

environment.
Procedure:
Create a prototype of a series or parallel circuit using your schematic
diagram on Activity 1.
1. Screw each end of the exposed wiring of the copper wire to one
terminal of each socket.
2. Screw in the bulbs into the sockets.
3. Individually attach the wires to the switch and the other end is to the
battery.
4. Turn on the switch to test if the circuit is working.
Questions:
1. Turn on the switch. What happens?
2.
3.
Carefully detach one bulb. Observe if the other bulbs are affected.
Record your observation.
V. REMARKS
Indicate special cases including
but not limited to continuation
of lesson plan to the following
day in case of re-teaching or
lack of time, transfer of lesson
to the following day, in cases of
class suspension, etc.
VI. REFLECTION
Reflect on your teaching and
assess yourself as a teacher.
Think about your student’s
progress. What works? What
else needs to be done to help
the students learn? Identify
what help your instructional
supervisors can provide for
you so when you meet them,
you can ask them relevant
questions. Indicate below
whichever is/are
appropriate.
A. No.of learners who ___Lesson carried. Move on to the next objective.
