d. Presenting examples/
instances of the new lesson
The learners demonstrate an understanding of Newton’s
three laws of motion and uniform circular motion.
The learners shall be able to develop a written plan and
implement a “Newtons Olympics”
The learners should be able to investigate the relationship
between the amount of force applied and the mass of the
object to the amount of change in the object’s motion.
At the end of the session, the learners should be able to:
1. describe the Newton’s First Law of Motion,
2. demonstrate Newton’s First Law of Motion,
3. appreciate the importance of Newton’s First Law of
Motion in our daily lives.
NEWTON’S FIRST LAW OF MOTION
10-11
10-12
Observing, Describing, Demonstrating, Valuing, Making of
Inferences and Communicating
Let the learners recall their previous lessons about Forces.
Say: How do you compare balance and unbalance forces?
-Introduce the new lesson (Let the learners read the
objectives of the new lesson)
-Show to the learners a video clip depicting the Newton’s
First Law of Motion then ask:
1. What can you say about the video?
2. Do you have any idea of our new lesson today?
-Group the learners into 6.
-Group 1- 3 will perform activity no. 1
( Coin Drop)
-Group 4 - 6 will perform activity no. 2
( Stock of Coin)
-Distribute to the learners the activity sheets.
-Give time for the learners read and analyze the
instructions in the activity sheets.
-Ask the learners for any clarifications.
-Allow one member of the group to get the materials
needed for the activity.
-Present to the learners the rubrics for the presentation.

Let them modify it if necessary.
Rubrics for presentation:
-Let the students perform the activity. (15 minutes)
-Let each group present their output giving emphasis on
the following:
 Object is acted upon by balanced forces, its motion
or its velocity will not change.
 An object will stay at rest or move at constant
velocity unless an unbalanced external force acts
on it.
 Discuss the effect of mass on inertia: the greater
the body’s mass, the greater will be its inertia.
 Relate the concept of inertia to student’s
experiences while riding a vehicle.
 Discuss the importance of using safety gear.
Show again to the learners a video clip presented
previously and analyse it.
(The teacher will explain to the learners the concepts as
presented on the video.)
The teacher will further explain the Law of Inertia.
Ask:
 Based on the activity that you conducted, how
would you describe the first law of motion?
 What are different situations applying the Law of
Inertia?
Ask: Do you think that discussing the law of inertia is
important? Why?
Ask: Describe the law of inertia.
 the lesson
TRUE or FALSE: Write TRUE if the given statement is
correct and FALSE if wrong.
1. A body will remain at rest or move at constant
velocity unless acted upon by external unbalanced
force.
V. EVALUATE 2. Object is acted upon by balanced forces, its motion
or its velocity will change.
3. A more massive object has lesser inertia.
4. The object will change its state of motion only if
there is balanced force acting on it.
5. An object in the law of inertia does not accelerate.
Say: Research situations related to the acceleration. Write
VI. EXTEND
your answer in your notebook and submit it next meeting.
