Theme of the Lesson

Magnetic properties of Substances

Learning objectives that are achieved at this lesson (Subject Programme reference)

10.4.1.3 – to describe modern scopes of using magnetic substances (neodymium magnets, sensors, seismographs, metal detectors) and to discuss the tendency of their application;

Lesson Objectives

Learners can predict the direction of the force on a charge moving in a magnetic field

Evaluation Criteria

Students have achieved the objective if they are able to describe modern scopes of using magnetic substances (neodymium magnets, sensors, seismographs, metal detectors) and to discuss the tendency of their application;

Language Objectives

Learners can:

use Fleming’s Left Hand Rule to explain to other learners in the class the direction of the magnetic force on a current-carrying conductor (speaking and listening skills)

Subject-specific vocabulary & terminology:

Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule

magnetic field direction

current-carrying conductor

conventional current

Useful sets of phrases for dialogue and writing:

The thumb represents...

The first finger represents...

The second finger represents…

The magnetic force is perpendicular to...

Values instilled at the Lesson

Respect for other’s opinions. Group work. Problem-solving skills. Communication skills. Working with potentially harmful apparatus will help students develop a responsible attitude. And working in pairs and/groups encourages friendliness. Communication skills are encouraged by working with a partner and answering questions.

Cross-curricular Links

Lifelong learning of the topics today by applying their knowledge this day for their SET, SAT, final external summative examination and other examinations they will take in the future.

ICT Skills

Calculations using engineering calculators Ask the students to do further reading on the topic from the internet, especially from the Institute of Physics and PhET Colorado websites.

Previous Learning

Starter: Draw magnetic field patterns around magnetic bars between different poles.

What do you understand by magnetic fields? Discussion

Ppt

5 - 35

Teacher

Explains various uses of neodymium magnets and by the aid of a video clip starts a discussion with the learners about a seismograph.

Students explain in discussion what they observe during the demonstration. This will help to give an understanding of the operation of a seismograph.

The animation is played to reinforce the conclusion drawn.

During each demonstration the learners are engaged in discussion using question and answer method.

Teacher

Gives the worksheet on the concepts studied previously.

Students attempt the questions in groups as they engage in discussion.

The teacher helps the learners with difficulties in answering the questions.

A nice animation giving a clear explanation of seismograph:

Reinforce the LO’s

Answer any questions pupils may have/clarify understanding

Reflect on their learning:

•      What has been learned

•      What remained unclear

•      What is necessary to work on

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?

Health and safety regulations

Weak Learners:

Review the previous lesson.

Revise the topic on key terms used in magnetism benefit of the weak learners.

Strong Learners:

-To research the use of strong magnetic fields in mass spectrometers and in isotope separation (e.g. for radiological dating or for enrichment of uranium).

Checking Students’ Learning:

-Using observation and the Question-Answer strategies at the start, during, and at the end of the lesson.

-Using the computer generated and/or tutor-feedback

-Using self, peer, and group feedback, online quizzes, and formative assessments.

-Checking the quality of their work and understanding from their notebooks, whiteboard work, answers on the active board, group presentations and discussions, developed posters, and responses on the worksheets.

Follow all standard laboratory procedures, rules, and regulations in the Schools’ Laboratory Safety Guide and to remain safety conscious always

Reflection

Were the lesson objectives/learning objectives realistic? Did all learners achieve the LO?

If not, why?

Did my planned differentiation work well?

Did I stick to timings?

What changes did I make from my plan and why?
