Lesson Plan On Motion: Acceleration

The lesson plan is a very important tool for teaching. Today we are going to discuss the lesson plan on Motion: Acceleration

Lesson plan on Motion: Speed and Velocity

Name of the Teacher: XX
Roll No: 00
Class: IX
The average age of the students: 14 + years

Subject: Physical Science
Lesson Whole: Motion
Lesson Unit: Speed & Velocity
Duration: 40 Minutes
Date: DD/MM/YY

General Aims

To create interest in the students to study the subject Physical Science
To develop a scientific attitude among the students

Specific Objective

To enable the students to recall the term acceleration
To enable the students to differentiate between uniform and non-uniform acceleration

Teaching Aids

Blackboard, chalk, duster, chart, and pointer

Step-I Preparation

Motivation: In order to motivate the students the following questions will be asked

Questions	Expected Answer
1. when a train starts moving from a platform, what does its speed increase or decrease	Increase
2. what happens when an airplane land at the airport	speed decrease gradually
3. A cyclist moving through a busy street, when his velocity increase, what does it call?	He is said to acceleration
4. what does it call when the cyclist’s speed decreased	De-acceleration or retarding

Announcement

So class, today we are going to learn about “Acceleration”

Step-II Presentation

Teaching Points	Instructional Objectives	Teaching Methods	Teacher’s activity/ Discussion	Blackboard work	Testing-Learning outcomes	Learning Outcomes
1. Acceleration	Students are able to define acceleration	Lecture Method	The rate of change of velocity of a body with respect to time is called its acceleration	Acceleration: Change in velocity/Time taken to change =Final velocity-Initial Velocity/Time taken to change =v-u/t where Time=t, Initial velocity=u, Final velocity=v, acceleration=a	1. Define Acceleration. write down the formula of acceleration	students are able to define acceleration
2. units of acceleration	Students are able to identify the SI unit	Lecture method	The SI unit of acceleration is Meter per second square	SI unit of acceleration is m/s-2	2. write down the SI unit of acceleration	Students learns the SI unit of acceleration.
3. Uniform acceleration	students able to recognize the uniform acceleration	Lecture and Discussion Method	When a body undergoes equal changes in velocit in equal intervals of time, the body is said to be moving with uniform acceleration Ex. A freely falling body under the pull of Earth	-It is an equal change in velocity in an equal interval of time	3. what is uniform acceleration?	students able to define uniform acceleration
4. Non-Uniform or Variable acceleration	Students able to differentiate between uniform and non-uniform acceleration	Lecture cum Discussion Method	When a body undergoes unequal changes in velocity in equal intervals of time, the body is said to be in non-uniform motion. Ex. when a car push breaks frequently on a crowded road	A body is said to have non-uniform acceleration when it undergoes unequal changes of velocity	4. Define variable acceleration	students able to differentiate between uniform and non-uniform acceleration
5. Definition of Retardation	Students are able to recall the term retardation	Lecture method	If the velocity of a body decrease then the rate of change of velocity is negative and it is called retardation. In this case final velocity of the body is lesser than the initial velocity	Final Velocity is lesser then the Initial velocity Retardation=v<u	5. What is retardation?	students learn about retardation

Step-III Recapitulation

In order to test the pupil’s understanding of the lesson just taught, the following question will be asked

Define the term acceleration
What is the SI unit of acceleration
What is called retardation?
What do you mean by uniform acceleration?
What is non-uniform acceleration?

Step-IV Remedial Teaching

Remedial teaching will be done if found necessary

Step-V Home Assignment

The following questions will be given for homework

Distinguish between acceleration and Retardation
What is acceleration? Give example
what is variable acceleration. Give example

Conclusion: Well class, Today we have learned about “Acceleration”. In the next class, we will learn about “Force”.
