Name: Zeeshan Bais & Farah Benjamin
Class: VIII D
Subject: Science
Topic: Liquid Pressure
Time: 35 minutes
Teachers Intention: To understand pressure in Liquid and relate depth to pressure in liquid, and to relate to
everyday examples.

Specific objective: By the end of the lesson students will be able to write any 3 uses of pressure in liquid and how
to deal with the pressure of the liquid, in their notebook within 5 min, individually.

Recap:

A1: Anything which has weight and

occupie space is called matter.
A2: Solid, liquid and Gas.
A3: Matter is made up of tiny
particles (Atoms & Molecules).
A4: Particles of solids vibrate
constantly due to their internal
energy but they cannot move from
one place to another.
In liquids particles can
move from place to place
bumping into the sides of
the container and into other
particles.
And particles of gases can
move freely from place to
place within a container
bumping against the walls
of the container and
against other particles.

Q1: What is matter?

Q2: What are the states of matter?
Q3: What is matter made up of?
Q4: Movement of particle in
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Q5: Do temperature affects the speed of
the particles?

Introduction
The teacher will introduce the topic by
writing the topic on the board.

Development:
Now teacher will explain with and
perform experiment.
Pressure act in a liquid in all
direction.
The pressure in a liquid is
directly proportional to the
depth. The pressure increases
with depth.
Problem of increasing
pressure with depth.

Teachers Activity
The wall of a dam is much
thicker at the bottom than at
the top because it must
withstand the increased lateral
pressure in depth of the water.

Students Activity

Time

(A)Pressure act in a liquid in all

direction.
(B)Pressure at any depth in a liquid
is the same.
(C)Pressure increases with depth.

Guided Practice:
Student will do the task in pairs.
The teacher will draw diagram on the
board and ask students to explain
diagram with examples that how
pressure is directly proportional to the
depth of the liquid, and give more
examples of liquid pressure which are
used in dailylife.

Feedback:
The teacher will ask the students to
share their responses.

Expected Answers:
A1: Because liquid is exerting
Pressure and pushing it out
A2: Because the water pressure is
greatest at the bottom.

Application:
Students will write 3 uses of liquid
pressure and how to deal with the
pressure of the liquid, in their
notebooks, individually,

Construction of dam
Water supply system
Intravenous infusion.

Feedback:
The teacher will ask the students to
share their answers.

Student will do the task in pairs.

Overall assessment
To assess students learning the teacher
will randomly ask Question.
Q1: Why pressure in a liquid increases
with depth?
Q2: Why a dam wall is much thicker at
the bottom?

Student will do the task in pairs.
