OUR LADY QUEEN OF MARTYRS SCHOOL WEEKLY LESSON PLAN
Teacher’s Name: Mrs. Ramsey Subject: Science Grade: 8th
Week of : November 24th, 2013 Unit: II -6 Weeks Week: 6
Unit Title: Forces and Energy Essential Question: How is energy conserved?
| CCSS Code e.g. RL.K.5 | OUTCOMES (Lesson Focus) What will the students know or be able to do at the end of the lesson? | ASSESSMENT How will the students demonstrate that they have accomplished the desired outcome? Please state the question that will be asked during your formative assessment. | STRATEGIES In what activities will the students be engaged to accomplish the desired outcome? Please list in the order that you will implement. | 3 HOTS QUESTIONS e.g. one should be on knowledge, one on application, and one on synthesis or evaluation. |
Mon
11/24
| Students will learn how force exerted on an object cause acceleration. | What is force? | 1. Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the argument presented. 2. Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts. 3. Distinguish among facts, reasoned judgment based on research findings, and speculation in a text. | 1. Have students write down in their journals some way to describe the phenomena that they have observed in words. 2. Define Newton’s Third Law of Motion. 3. Identify the action-reaction of the activity. | |

| Students will gain an understanding of Newton’s third law of motion: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction | Explain the difference between potential and kinetic energy. | 1. Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the information or explanation presented. 2. Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts. 3. Use appropriate and varied transitions to create cohesion and clarify the relationships among ideas and concepts. | 1. 2. Write and/or illustrate what they did during this activity and what they learned from their participation in the activity. 3. Discuss other ways in which potential and kinetic energy are transferred. |
