STAGE | TIME | TEACHER'S ACTIVITIES | STUDENT'S ACTIVITIES | ASSESSMENT |
INTRODUCTION | 10 | to assist students to brainstorm how electric current produce magnetic field. | Students to perform an experiment to produce magnetic field due to a current carrying wire | Is the student able to explain how electric current produce a magnetic field? |
PRESENTATION | 40 | to guide students to carry out experiments to investigate the magnetic fields associated with an electric current passing through a straight wire, loop and solenoid. | Students to identify the patterns of the field lines around a straight conductor, loop and solenoid. | Is the student able to identify the pattern of the magnetic field lines around a straight conductor? |
REFLECTION | 10 | to guide students to discuss the right hand rule and the cork screw rule. | to assist students through question and answer technique to determine the direction of magnetic field due to the current flowing through a straight wire, loop and solenoid. | Is the student able to determine the direction of magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor? |
REINFORCEMENT | 10 | to guide students to discuss the right hand rule and the cork screw rule. | Students to listen carefully and take short notes | Is the student able to identify key points form the lesson? |
CONCLUSION | 10 | To give work to students to be done during their free time | Students to copy assignment to work on it on a later date | Is the students able to handle the assignment given? |
90% of students understood the lesson well, they answered all the questions well |
Enough knowledge was given given and most of the students understood the lesson |
The students who did not understood the lesson well will be in the remedial class. Otherwise I will proceed with the topic. |
