Development
Step 1
Eliciting Ideas
( 10 minutes)
|
- Teacher asks the
pupils to set up a
complete circuit
consist of :
1 bulb, 1 bulb holder,
2 D size batteries, 3
pieces of wires with
crocodile clip, 1 battery
holder (2 D size
batteries).
|
- Teacher asks pupils what are the
basic things to make a complete
circuit.
- Teacher asks pupils to connect a
complete circuit with the things
given.
- Teacher shows the sample
complete circuit on the screen.
- Teacher shows some objects to
the pupils. Pupils identify what
the material is made up of?
- Pupils answer the teacher’s
questions.
- Teacher asks pupils to predict
whether these materials can
conduct electricity or not?

Step 2
Restructuring the Idea
( 25 minutes)
|
- Teacher shows a
circuit tester on the
screen.
- Teacher asks the
pupils to make a
circuit tester.
- Allow pupils to try out
their circuit tester.
-List of objects given to
each groups is :
1 plastic ruler,
1 iron nail,
1 chopstick, 1 pencil,
1 paper clip, 1 eraser,
1 metal spoon,
1 1 ¢ coin, 1 wood,
1 zink, 1 leather.
Observation:
- Pupils of each group
present their
experiment
worksheet.
|
- Teacher gives the objects to the
pupils
- Teacher lets the pupils to
discover themselves how to
make the bulb lights up.
-Teacher guides the pupils to do a
hands-on activity.
- Pupils try to connect the object
one by one to the circuit.
- Pupils see whether the bulb
lights up or not.
- Pupils record their observation
one by one on the given worksheet.
- Pupils do experiment in group of
four.
- Teacher distributes the things to
each group.
- Teacher will play music and
pupils have to complete the
experiment before the music ends.
- After the experiment, teacher will
choose the pupils randomly from
each group to come forward and
present their group’s observation.
- Then, the teacher discusses the
observations with the pupils.
