Third Quarter Lesson Plan in Science VI
Content:
I
I. Learning Objectives
A. Infer how friction and gravity affect movements of different objects.
B. Understand of gravity and friction affecting movements of object.
C. Produce an advertisement demonstrating road safety.
II. Subject-Matter
Gravity and Friction affects movements of Different Objects.
A. Science Concept:
Force is a push or pull.
Gravity is a strong attractive force makes falling objects goes downward.
Friction is a contact force between two surfaces are in contact with each other.
B. Materials: power point presentation, video clip, pencil/pen, powder, book

Process Skills: observing, describing, explaining, inferring.
Value Integration: Be Cautious (protect oneself from accident)
III. Learning Task
A. Engagement
1. Review: Identify the kind of force that is exerted on the object.
Distinguish if it is a Push or Pull.

3. Science News:
The delivery of 600,000 doses Sinovac Biotech's vaccines, donated by China, arrived.
Aside from Sinovac, 10,000 doses of a vaccine developed by China's Sinopharm will
arrive soon, under a "compassionate use" for Duterte's security detail. Doses from
AstraZeneca will arrive in March, Roque said
Motivation:
Let us Try:
Raise your right hand in front of you. Then, place a book on the palm of your right hand.
Do this for 1-2 minutes. How does it feel after 2 minutes?
Next, apply powder on your hand and rub it. Then, try to grip a pencil. Is it easy to hold?
on or is it slippery?
B. Exploration:
Activity
Materials: rubber bands, milk/juice carton, straw
What to do:
1. Make a long chain of rubber bands.
2. Loop the rubber band chain around the juice or milk carton.
3. Gently pull the rubber band chain. Did the carton move?
4. Gradually pull more strongly until the carton starts to slide.
5. What are the factors that enable or prevent the carton from moving?
6. Try pulling other objects using the rubber band, like books, chairs, etc.
7. Based on the activity, what can you say about the relation between weight and friction?
C. Explanation
Discuss the activity. Check the pupil’s responses to the activity questions.
Clarify misconceptions when needed.
Help the pupils formulate their own ideas/concepts by asking:
What made objects move?
What caused objects to change speed?
What affected the movements of the object?
What can force do?
D. Elaboration:
Have the pupils construct and express their own understanding?
They should be able to say/ understand that:
Force is a push or pull.
Gravity is a strong attractive force makes falling objects goes downward.
Friction is a contact force between two surfaces are in contact with each other.
Friction and gravity affect movements of different objects.
E. Evaluation
Choose the letter of the correct answer.
1. If you push a boy heavier than you, what will you need?
a. Lesser force
b. Equal force
c. Greater force
d. Same force
2. Which of the following shows the presence of friction?
a. cars continuously roll down hills.
b. things fall off on smooth surfaces.
c. people stay in place as they move.
d. cars stop when the driver steps on the brakes.
3. Which affects the motion of an object?
a. Friction and Gravity
b. Speed and Object
c. Distance and Light
d. Motion and Weight
4. What causes an object to move or change its position?
a. Force
b. Speed
c. Acceleration
d. Deceleration
5. You see a flag on a pole. A force is acting on the flag. Where is it coming from?
a. Wind
b. Water
c. Gravity
d. Magnet
F. Extend: Draw an advertisement demonstrating road safety.
