Lesson Plan for Science Grade 7

I. Objective
1. Identify the differences between scalar and
vector quantities;displacement and distance.

describing the separation between two points
: distance and displacement.
3. Perform the task given.

B.1 Review
What is your lesson all
about yesterday? (the student will answer)
B.2 Motivation
Before we will go to the
lesson proper, we will a
short activity.
Direction: rearrange the
jumbled letters to form the
word being described by each
statement. Get one half
cross wise.
1. A change in position with
respect to a reference
point?
(OINTOM)(MOTION)
2. A description of how
objects move? (EMKTISNAC)
(KINEMATICS)
3. Deals with how and why
objects move?
(NISYMDA)(DYNAMIC)
4. A quantity that includes
a number and a unit only and
is described by magnitude
alone?
(SLACAR)(SCALAR)
5. A quantity described by
both magnitude and Yes, maam
direction? (ORTEVC)(VECTOR)
Done?
Lets check it then.
(answer the sit work)
B. Lesson Proper (Maam, maam one wrong)
Who got the perfect score?
Now we will go to our lesson
proper. First we will know
what is kinematics. What is
this? Kinematic is a branch
of dynamics that deals with
aspects of motion apart from
consideration of mass and
force.
So that is kinematics, next
is scalar. What is the Maam, Scalar Quantities
meaning of this?
Scalar quantities, are the
measurements that strictly refer to the
magnitude of the medium. There are
absolutely no directional components
in a scalar quantity - only the
magnitude of the medium.

Correct, thank you.

It says that scalar measures
only to the magnitude of
Vector quantities, however, refer to
medium, there is no

Yes, maam

magnitude while vector have it both

It seems that you already
understand now what is

difference.
Distance is a scalar quantity that

Distance and displacement are two Displacement is a vector
quantities that may seem to mean the quantity that refers to "how far out of
same thing yet have distinctly different place an object is"; it is the object's
definitions and meanings. overall change in position.
Now,what is distance and
displacement?
Maam distance as one of scalar so it
only refers to how much ground an
object has covered while
displacement is a vector quantity in
which it measure how far out the
place an object is and its overall
change of position.

Yes, thank you. So what is

the difference between the
two?

Maam, (the student then solve and

explain the answer)
(the students then perform)

Yes correct, thank you.

There is the example:

Ex. If peter walked from his

house 50m east and then
walked back 20m west, his Okey maam,
total distance traveled is
70m. What is Peters distance Maam,( the student then will find
then? the displacement)
Who can perform this
problem?

Peter walked 50m east and Maam by using the formula x=x -
then walked 20m west. What x.
is the displacement then?

Who will answer then?

B.3 Analysis
1.when is the time that we
can say that it is scalar
quantity? Yes maam.

Correct, and including any

unit.
2.How can you find the
displacemet of an object?

Correct.
3.How does vector differ
from scalar?

B.4 Abstraction
What are under the scalar
quantity?name 5 of them.

Yes,correct
How about the vector
quantity?
Very good.
Now did you see the
difference between the two?

V. Evaluation
