IV-PROCEDURES Teacher's Activity Student's Activity


Preliminary activities

Introduction/Prayer Good morning Grade 11! How are you doing today? “Good morning ma’am, we’re
good ma’am”
The teacher will call someone from the class to lead
the prayer.
Greetings ‘In the name of the father …
Before we start our lesson, please arrange the Amen.’
chairs properly, pick up the pieces of paper and
remove unnecessary things from your desk. The students will check their
chairs and pick up some dirt.

Is everybody already here? Monitor, Are there any


Checking of Attendance absences?
‘No, Ma’am”

Okay. Very good!

ELICIT “ SPOT THE INERTIA”


(3 minutes)
To begin our lesson, let’s see if you remember the
topic we discussed yesterday.

In our previous lesson, we talked about the


distinction between Newton’s First Law of Motion
and Galileo’s assertion that force is not necessary to “ Yes ma’am”
sustain horizontal motion, right? We realized how
Galileo’s idea of horizontal motion helped Sir Isaac
Newton formulate his First Law of Motion.

Now, to check your understanding, we will have an


activity called “Spot the Inertia.” On my right is a
collage of images depicting different scenarios. Your
task is to identify instances of inertia—select the
images that you think demonstrate inertia and
transfer them to the left board.

Are you ready?

( Images that will be shown on the board)


( The teacher will check if the image that was
transferred shows inertia.)

ENGAGE Alright! You were able to identify the images that


(5 minutes) demonstrate inertia. Great job!

Now, take a look at the images that were left behind.


We have a rainbow, the reflection of a girl on
different sides of a spoon, and a glass of water with
a spoon that appears bent.

Have you ever wondered why a rainbow


appears after the rain? Or why does your face
look funny when reflected on a spoon? And why
does a spoon seem to bend when placed in a
glass of water?

Today, we are going to unravel the mysteries behind


these fascinating phenomena. We will explore the
beauty and importance of light—how it behaves in
different mediums and how it creates the world of
reflections, refractions, and breathtaking natural
wonders around us.

Are you ready to see the light in a whole new way?

But in order to do that we will be having another ( The students will work in the
EXPLORE activity. This activity is entitled “ Mirror, Mirror on task)
(10 minutes) the wall”.
We have here a plane mirror, protractor and a
laser. Now, our task is to draw the light rays that will
be reflected by this light. I will be needing two
representatives from the class but everyone must
observe. We will also be measuring the angle of
incidence and angle of reflection.

( A guide for the activity)

Guide Question;
What happens when light strikes the mirror?
What is the angle of incidence?
What is the angle of reflection?
What can you say about the angle of reflection and
angle of incidence?

EXPLAIN
(5 minute) (Students will answer the
guide question orally based
on their observation.)

“As the light strikes the


mirror, it reflects and obeys
the Law of Reflection”

Law of Reflection
-The law of reflection defines
that upon reflection from a
smooth surface, the angle of
the reflected ray is equal to
the angle of the incident ray.

Law of Reflection Formula:

The law of reflection formula is given as:

θi = θr

Where,

● θi is the angle of incidence


● θr is the angle of reflection

ELABORATE Understanding light is essential. Light plays a


(30 minutes) significant role in how we perceive the world
around us. We see things when light enters our
eyes. Light interacts with the matter around us.
We begin our understanding of light when we
investigate its properties. One of which is
reflection.
At slow speeds, a curvature of a thrown ball
was easily observed because of the
effect of gravity but at high speeds the ball is
inclined to follow a straight line. According to
Sir
Isaac Newton, light travels in straight lines, thus
its particles must move at very high speeds.
Light can travel straight through empty space
(vacuum) until it hits something else. Once it
has hit another
surface or particle, it is either absorbed,
reflected (bounces off),
refracted (direction and speed changes),
scattered (bounce-off
in all directions) or transmitted (passes straight
through)

Wave Theory of Light


- Christian Huygens, a Dutch physicist,
argued that if light were made of
particles, when light beams crossed, the
particles would collide and cancel each
other. He proposed that light was a wave
similar to that of water waves.
- Huygens’ Principle – each point on a
wave, behaves as a point source for
waves in the direction of wave motion.
Huygens’ wave model of light explains
reflection, refraction, and diffraction of
light.
- Reflection happens when light bounces
off an object. Upon hitting a smooth
surface, light would be reflected. The
waves would bounce back, producing a
reversed image of the wave.
- Refraction – is the bending of a wave
when it enters a medium where its speed
changes.the wavefront approaches the
two media with different densities. Since
the incident wave is travelling as an
angle, a small portion of the wavefront
starts to slow down upon impact to the
boundary while the rest are maintaining
their speeds. This condition makes the
wavefront bend while entering the
second medium with higher density.

Reflection

● Follows the law of wave reflection.


● Angle of Incidence= Angle of Reflection
● Reflection of light waves results in image
formation.

Diffuse vs. Specular Reflection

Specular Reflection
- Reflection off of smooth surfaces such as
mirrors or a calm body of water leads to
a type of reflection known as specular
reflection.
- Smooth surfaces bounce light in one
direction creating a clear and vivid
reflection of the image.

Diffuse Reflection
- Reflection off of rough surfaces such as
clothing, paper, and the asphalt roadway
leads to a type of reflection known as
diffuse reflection.
- Rough surfaces reflect light in various
directions due to uneven orientation of
the surface which will result in a hazy or
unclear image of the object.
Question to Ponder:
Why is it that we can see our full
image in the mirror but not on the
paper?

Refraction

● When a light wave passes into different


mediums, it will experience bending.

Mirage
- A mirage is an optical phenomenon in
which a distant object appears to be
present, even though it is not actually
there. The refraction of light rays causes
this optical illusion as they pass through
layers of air with varying densities,
resulting in a deceptive appearance

Question to Ponder:
● Why does a pencil appear bent when
dipped in water?

EVALUATE To test your knowledge for today’s lesson we will be
