6. SUMMARY OF THE CONTENT TO COVER IN THIS LESSON
(Briefly summarise the content (see 7.2) that you will be presenting in this lesson)

Learners will explore what energy is, the different sources of energy and the process of transferring energy.

7. LESSON OBJECTIVE(S)
7.1 PRE-KNOWLEDGE
(Write down learners’ existing knowledge, skills and values)

The learners should already know the concept of energy and can differentiate between non-renewable and
renewable sources.

7.2 CONCEPTS and NEW KNOWLEDGE

(Write down the new knowledge, skills and values that you are going to teach)

The learners should know how to define energy and the different forms of energy. They should understand
sources of energy.as well as the importance of energy conservation.

7.3 LESSON OBJECTIVES

 (Own lesson objectives based on General and Specific Aims from CAPS, written in your own words)
By the end of the lesson the learners should be able to…

 How to define energy

 The different types of energy
 How energy is transferred.

7.4 FUTURE LEARNING

(Briefly describe what the learners will learn in the lesson that follows this one)
In the next lesson, the learners will learn about the dept of energy sources in more details e.g. solar energy.

10. LESSON PHASES

10.1 INTRODUCTION OF THE LESSON
(Time allocated: 10 min)
(Give a detailed description of how you greet the learners, how you set the atmosphere for the new lesson, how you awaken the learners’
prior knowledge, and how you create a link between what the learners already know and the new knowledge that you will be presenting.)

As the learners are coming into the class , as a teacher I stand at the door with a smile, and I ensure that I
make eye contact and greet them by their names. I can ask them about their weekend or how they are
feeling.
To set the atmosphere for the new lesson, I would ask random questions related to the topic that I am about
to present, and hear their opinion.
To awaken my learners I would play a short video of the topic of the lesson, or do a hands on activity.
To create a connection between what the learners already know and the new knowledge that will be
presented, I would ask them questions based on the previous lesson, then create a link with the days topic.
 10.2 DEVELOPMENT – PRESENTING THE NEW KNOWLEDGE
(Time allocated: 15 min)
(Give a detailed description of WHAT content you are presenting, HOW you will be presenting it, and WHAT THE LEARNERS WILL BE
DOING.):

In this lesson we will look at what energy is, how it is formed, as well as how it works. We will start our lesson
by looking a video that will show what energy is and the examples of energy, this will help us understand
energy better. If time allows us we will do a hands on activity and talk about the importance of energy in our
lives.
The learners will be watching the pictures, and reading from their school text books. They will have the
oportunity to ask questions.
10.3 CONSOLIDATION
(Time allocated: 5 min)
(Give a detailed description of how you will consolidate the new knowledge, as well as how you incorporate assessment of the objectives
and how you will wrap up. Please also mention here any HOMEWORK that you will give the learners.):

To ensure that every learner knows and understands energy, we will talk about it again, draw pictures and paste them
around the class , so that the learners will not forget.
To see if everyone has learnt about energy we will ask questions during the lesson or conduct unprepared test about
energy.
To wrap up the lesson, we will talk about what we know discuss it as a class. Foe homework, I will ask them to go home and
look for pictures of examples of energy in their homes.
11. DIFFERENTIATION

11.1 LEARNER ENRICHMENT

(Indicate what measures are in place for learners who grasped concepts quickly. How will you challenge them and keep them from
getting bored?)

 I would give them books or articles to read once they have completed their work.
 As them to help to my struggling learners.

11.2 LEARNER SUPPORT

(Indicate what measures are in place for learners who struggle to grasp the concepts. How will you support them and keep them from
getting negative and frustrated?)

Peer my struggling learner with a learner who can grasp quickly , always check their work, make them sit
next to my table.

12. REFLECTION
Briefly reflect on your lesson by discussing its strengths (what went well), its weaknesses (what did not work), what did you find
challenging, if the lesson objectives were met and what would you improve if you had to teach this lesson again. Use the following
questions to guide your reflection:

1. Describe aspects of your lesson that worked really well.

2. Which areas of your lesson did not go according to plan? Explain why you think this may have happened.
3. Re-examine your lesson objectives. Did you meet them? Why/why not?
4. This is what I learnt about the learners in my class today:
5. What was my most challenging moment in this lesson and why? How will I respond next time?
6. To what extent were the learners productively engaged in the learning process? Discuss.
7. If I had the opportunity to teach this lesson again to this same group of learners, what would I do differently? Why?
8. What evidence/ feedback do I have that the learners achieved an understanding of the lesson objective(s)?
