Phase Introduction/ Eliciting Ideas (10 minutes)

Scientific Concept/ Content

Teaching and Learning Activities Teacher Activities Student Activities Revised back what Students student had learned respond to before on how to use teachers the vernier calipers. questions and answer Give 1 exercise for the problem evaluate. given. Elicit students ideas about the unit that use in their daily life such as how they measure something to know the quantity needed.

Notes Strategy/Technique: Whole class Q&A Skills: Generating ideas. Attitudes/values: Being confident, wellmannered

Structuring/ Restructuring of Ideas (30 minutes)

Ask two central guiding questions: Do you know how to use micrometer screw gauge?

Students make prediction, inference, observation and Show example on how conclusion to use micro meter screw gauge.

Strategy/Technique: Interactive Whole class Q&A and demonstration Resources: Physics Simulation Courseware, Teaching courseware, LCD, Computer. Skills: Predicting, Inferring, & Observing. Attitudes/Values: Being creative Thinking rationally Being confident and independent.

Application of Ideas (20 minutes)

Give students exercise on how to measure using micrometer screw gauge. Lets student measure some objects using micrometer screw gauge. Discuss the answer together.

Students solve the problem given base on what they had learned. Students show the answer in front the class.

Strategy/Techniques Self assessment Resources : Micrometer screw gauges , LCD, computer, Physics Simulation Courseware. Skills: Problem solving, use and handle science apparatus and laboratory substances correctly , observe , record and measure accurately. Attitudes/Values: Having critical and analytical thinking Thinking rationally Being confident and independent Being cooperative

Reflection/ Closure (10 minutes)

Micrometer screw gauge is use to measure diameters of wires and thicknesses of steel plates to an accuracy of 0.01mm.

Lets student show step on how to use the micrometer screw gauge . Giving exercise for their Chinese New Year holiday.

Students show step on how to use the micrometer screw gauge in front of the class and show an example.

Strategy/Techniques: Whole class Q&A Resource : Micrometer screw gauge. Skills: Making conclusion, use and handle science apparatus and laboratory substances correctly, store science apparatus correctly and safely. Attitudes/Values: Being confident ,
