After this lesson, students should be able to

- know different types of oscillating systems;

- explain the causes of oscillations in various oscillating systems;

- investigate the dependence period of the oscillation of the pendulum on various parameters.

Success

criteria

Students have achieved if  they:

- know different types of oscillating systems;

- explain the causes of oscillations in various oscillating systems;

- investigate the dependence period of the oscillation of the pendulum on various parameters.

Language

objectives

Period of the oscillation, frequency of the oscillation, equilibrium position, displacement, amplitude, angular frequency, simple pendulum, mass-spring system, length of the pendulum, spring constant.

The time taken for one complete oscillation is referred to as the period of the oscillation. The number of oscillations per unit time is the frequency.

Values instilled

at the lesson

Students’ achieve of specific learning objectives, and get a certain amount of knowledge, but also develop the ability to apply their knowledge in solving learning and life problems.

- explain the causes of oscillations in various oscillating systems;

By using video clip (video_1) discuss with class different types of oscillating systems

Investigate the dependence period of the oscillation of the pendulum on various parameter through inquiry-based learning

Students are divided into small groups.

One group will investigate the dependence period of the oscillation of the simple pendulum on the length of the pendulum and the amplitude of the oscillation.

Simple

Pendulum

Another group will investigate the dependence period of the oscillation of the mass-spring system on the mass and the spring constant.

Mass-spring systems

Students based on the study will draw conclusions.

Solving problems

Problem _1_Alternative to practical

Students work  independently

The teacher checks and evaluates problem solving.

Gives feedback. If necessary, helps to the students.

Generalization: Students will be asked if they have achieved the lesson’s objectives.

Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners?

Assessment – how are you planning to check students’ learning?
