INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURES

PERIOD 1: Heat and temperature

PRESENTATION

TEACHER’S ACTIVITY

PUPIL’S ACTIVITY

STEP 1

INTRODUCTION

The teacher revises the previous lesson on energy

 

Pupils pay attention

STEP 2

EXPLANATION

She explain the differences between heat and temperature

Heat is the total energy of the motion of the molecules of a substance, whereas temperature refers to the measure of the average energy of the motions of the molecules in the substance.

Differences

1.   Heat is a form of energy that can transfer from a hot body to a cold body. Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of a body.

2.   Heat is the total kinetic energy and potential energy obtained by molecules in an object. Temperature is the average K.E of molecules in a substance.

 

Pupils pay attention and participates

STEP 3

DEMONSTRATION

She enumerates the types of thermometer

  1. Clinical thermometer /medical thermometer.
  2. Laboratory thermometer.
  3. Digital thermometer.
  4. Infrared ear thermometer.
  5. Mercury thermometer.
  6. Alcohol in glass thermometer.
  7. Constant pressure gas thermometer.
  8. Constant volume thermometer.

 

She states the unit and symbols of temperature

The kelvin (K) is the base unit for temperature. Kelvin is called the absolute temperature scale because it does not use degrees.

Pupils pay attention and participate

STEP 4

NOTE TAKING

The teacher writes a short note on the board

The pupils copy the note in their books

PRESENTATION

TEACHEIR’S ACTIVITY

PUPIL’S ACTIVITY

STEP 1

INTRODUCTION

The teacher revisits the previous lesson on physical fitness

Pupils pay attention

STEP 2

EXPLANATION

She further explains what physical fitness is- Physical fitness is the ability of the body to function both effectively and efficiently when performing physical activity without becoming exhausted too quickly.

 

She then demonstrates the components of physical fitness using various activities

1. Agility: It is defined as the ability to move with speed and ease. Activities that build agility are lateral running, jump box drills etc

2. Endurance: It is the ability to put up with strain, suffering, or hardship. Activities that build endurance are long hike, walking briskly, biking, jumping rope etc

3. Strength: It is how strong one is. Activities that build strength are weight lifting, cycling, push-ups, sit ups etc

4. Flexibility: It is the ability to move the joints freely. Activities that build flexibility are yoga, pilates, stretching etc

Pupils pay attention and participates

STEP 3
