I. Objectives:
Learning Competency : Perform activities to demonstrate conservation of
mechanical energy.
Content Standard : The learners demonstrate an understanding of
conservation of mechanical energy.
Performance Standard : The learners shall be able to: create a device that shows
conservation of mechanical energy.
Objectives : a. Define what is Potential and Kinetic Energy.
b. Engage cooperatively in calculations for potential and kinetic
problem solving; and

III. Procedure
A. Preparatory Activities
1. Prayer
2. Checking of Attendance
3. Recalling of Classroom Rules
4. Motivation
The teacher will present two baskets labelled as “Moved or At Rest.” The
teacher will choose a volunteer student to put the picture that shows either moved
object or object at rest to the basket where it belongs.
The teacher will present two baskets
labelled as “Moved or At Rest.” The students
will put the picture that shows either moved
object or object at rest to the basket where it
belongs.
The teacher will present two baskets
labelled as “Moved or At Rest.” The students
will put the picture that shows either moved
The teacher will ask the following questions after the activity.
1. What kind of energy is being used by an object at rest?
Very good! Potential energy. (The teacher will
label the second basket as Potential Energy.
(The teacher will label the first basket as Potential Energy)
After the students answer the two questions, she will ask them to read the
objective of the lesson.
a. Define what is Potential and Kinetic
Energy;
b. Engage cooperatively in calculations for
potential and kinetic problem solving;
and
c. Value the importance of the existence of
potential and kinetic energy.
a. Define what is Potential and Kinetic Energy.
b. Engage cooperatively in calculations for potential and kinetic problem
solving; and
c. Value the importance of the existence of potential and kinetic energy.
B. Developmental Activities
1. Activity
The teacher will group the class into three. Each group will be assigned to
perform different activities.
Group 2 – Act and perform at least 5 scenarios that show whether Gravitational or
Elastic Potential energy.
Group 3- Act and perform at least 5 scenarios that show Kinetic Energy.
The rubric will be discussed by the teacher before the students perform their
assigned activities.
Rubrics in Reporting
3. Clarity & Clearly and Mostly clear and Some instances of Unclear or
Communication effectively effective unclear or ineffective ineffective

information
2. Analysis
After each group finalize their output, they will report/present their assigned
task in front of the class. After each group has presented, the teacher will ask
the following questions:
Guide questions:
1. What are the energy being calculated based on your report?
2. What do you call with the unit of energy?
3. What are the examples of scenarios in life that we can apply Kinetic
energy? Potential energy? (The teacher presents her further discussions by
PowerPoint presentation.)
3. Abstraction
Introduce topic lesson.
There are two basic forms of mechanical Energy: Potential
energy which is defined as the energy associated with height or
position (PE = mgh) and kinetic energy which is associated with
motion (KE= 1/2mv2). Potential energy is type of energy that is
waiting to be used or considered a stored energy.
4. Application
C. Concluding Activity
Evaluation
Classify whether the description pertains to Potential Energy (PE) or
Kinetic Energy (KE). Write PE or KE in the space provided.
1. Energy possessed by a moving tricycle.
2. An energy of motion, observable as the movement
of an object, particle, or set of particles.
3. Energy due to the position of an object
4. Energy waiting to be used
Agreement
Study the different activities which can be easily performed and
then explain how energy is conserved.
Activity Explain
1. Hammering a nail
3. Biking in a mountain
4. A mother dancing with a baby in
her arms
5. A man stretching a bow string
Flying arrow
