Domain]
2. Describe the electric energy generation, transmission and distribution setup in the
country. [Psychomotor Domain]
3. Value the importance and benefits of energy transmission in electrical power plants
in our daily living. [Affective Domain]
II. SUBJECT MATTER

 Review
The teacher asks the students about the last discussion of their past lesson.

III. LEARNING ACTIVITIES/ STRATEGIES

Preparation:
Motivation
Ask for volunteers to draw or sketch on the board the equipment or
structures involved in supplying their homes with electric power from a generating
facility. (This activity would show you that your students are not empty when they
enter school.) After that you can show them a video talking about a power grid. [See
video attachment in the folder.] Then ask the students, “Where do we get all the
electric power we need for the community?” After that you can introduce the topic
and the lesson objectives.
 Activity
Group the students into five groups. After the class is being divided, the
teacher shall assign seating arrangement for the groups.

Let them listen to the instruction. All of the members of the group shall
assign an expert in any of the given power plants in the Philippines. Let them choose
a secretary and a reporter. [The Secretary, writes down his/her group members.
The Reporter, reports his/her group’s conclusions or results, as recorded on the
worksheet.] Give each of the groups an envelope that contain worksheets and
handouts. Written in the handouts are the information that the students would
need, to answer the questions in the worksheet. The assigned experts in the power
plants shall proceed to a new group with the same experts in the same power plant.
When the students are through answering the first worksheet let them go back to
their original groups to discuss and answer the group worksheet. After answering
execute a nice clap. Before they start the activity let them read the rubric for the
activity for them to be guided.

The students have only eight minutes to answer the activity.

Analysis
The teacher would ask the following questions after the presentation of the
different groups.
1. How do you feel, while doing the activity?
2. What made you come up with your answers in the activity?

Abstraction
Let us now proceed to our discussion about our new topic.
[The teachers starts on discussing the lesson.]

Application
Let us proceed. In our daily living, how important is energy transmission in
electrical power plants? And what are its benefits?
[Elicit answers from the students and don’t forget to acknowledge and
appreciate their answers.]

Generalization
After the discussion that we had a while ago, identify the equipment used in
power generation and transmission.

What are the types of power plants used in our country?

What are the benefits of power plants?

What type of power plant is ideal to lessen dangers and pollution in our
environment?

[Elicit answers from the students and don’t forget to acknowledge and
appreciate their answers. And try to add some important details that the students
failed to stress.]
Evaluation
1
Get a 2 crosswise sheet of intermediate paper. Answer the following
questions. Write your answers in your answer sheet.
1. Using what you have learned from the discussion, sketch the flow of electricity from
the generation, transmission, up to the distribution on your house.
