Work Quiz
Power Quiz
Students come in and have the 5 - 10 minutes of class to complete their warm-up.
Warm-ups have been a productive pedagogical strategy I use daily, as it ensures
that students are on task and focused as they enter the classroom. The
classroom is laid out with 13 lab tables and students were assigned to their own
seats. Each table seats two students and it has been customary that students
seat at the same seat from day to day unless I move them due to distractions.
These tables serve as the students’ groups when doing cooperative work, unless I
choose to strategically group them. I walk around the room as students complete
the warm-up, answering any questions and making sure all students are on task.
During each activity, I will use an online countdown timer to grasp students’
Facilitation & Safety attention and administer instructions. I also use this in between transitions, to
maintain classroom management and order in between activities.
For students’ safety I organized the physical space of the classroom for movement
and interaction. I made it easy for students to pull their desks together to do small
group work. Spaces are created on both ends of the tables so that it is easy for
the students to walk around. It also allows my movement around the classroom
to give help to my students and it makes my teaching more engaging. It also helps
with classroom control.
The classroom is also made safe for students to participate and ask questions. No
matter what a student says, I make it a habit to respond with respect. I model
respect for my students, and teach them to show respect to one another.

1. Teacher will hold a tennis ball and ask students, “What kind of energy is this ball
storing”? potential energy
2. Teacher will drop the ball and let it bounce a few times and ask the students,
“What type of energy does the ball gain as it falls? Kinetic energy
3. Teacher ask students, “When does the ball gain potential energy?” As the ball
bounces upward
4. Teacher will ask students, “What happens to the potential energy?” It changes
into kinetic energy when the ball falls again.
5. Teacher will ask students, “Why doesn’t the ball keep bouncing forever? As the
ball bounces it loses energy in the form of heat, friction and sound energy.
Students will put their observations and thoughts on dry erase boards and present
to their classmates. I will ask more probing questions to clear any misconceptions.

Students will work in a group of 4 to read, discuss, come up with a hypothesis and
think about how to setup the experiment to collect/analyze data using guiding
question and drafting the lab report.
There are many examples of situations where energy is conserved. One such
example is a rock falling from a given height above the ground. If the rock starts at
rest, at the moment the rock is dropped, the rock-Earth system only has potential
energy. As the rock falls, potential energy decreases, but the system’s kinetic
energy increases. The sum of potential energy and kinetic energy remains
constant if friction is neglected.
