Grade Level Grade 7

Time allotment 60 minutes
Learning Competencies and Objectives S7FE-IIIc-5
Within the specified period, learners should be able to:

1. Differentiate transverse from longitudinal waves; and
2. Demonstrate the motion of a transverse and longitudinal wave
ELICIT (Access Prior knowledge) Materials

Key recall questions: LCD projector
1. Do you remember playing with a slinky as a child?
2. How many of you here tried playing with a skipping rope?
ENGAGE (Focus on the Topic)
The students will be divided into four 4 groups. Each group will LCD Projector
perform a short activity. The first group will be named as Group W, Video
second group will be named as Group A, third group will be named as
Group V and the fourth group will be named as Group E.
CLASS DEMONSTRATION A
Group W: have the students form a line. While seated, ask the students to
stand up and sit down in succession.
Group A: Starting at one end of the line, have the students do a traditional
stadium wave. If they don’t know how, have them all start slightly bent
forward with hands on knees. Explain that the student on the end will lift both
arms all the way over their heads and then put both down again. Each
student should do the same motion as soon as they feel the student beside
them do it.
Questions:
1. What have you formed as you do the activity?
2. Did the disturbance travel up and down or back and forth?
CLASS DEMONSTRATION B
Group V: Have one student gently push the back of the student in front of
her, and then pushed student unto the person in front of her and so on.
Group E: Have the students start with their arms out straight in front of them.
As the wave goes by, each student will swing both arms first toward and
then away from the next student in line.
Questions:
1. What have you formed as you do the activity?
2. Did the disturbance travel up and down or back and forth?
EXPLORE (Provide Common Experience)

 Unlocking of terms Rope
 Precautionary measures Slinky spring
 Rubrics criteria Ribbon
 Activity Proper (Up, up and a wave) Activity sheets
 Organize five groups among yourselves
 First read through the procedures. If there are points that you do not
understand, ask help or clarify from your teacher.
 Follow the directions in the activity with your group mates.
EXPLAIN (Post Activity)
 How did you find the activity? Manila paper
 While doing the activity, what have you produced?
 How can you produce wave? Give examples of waves.
 What do you call the cause of wave or the one that provides the
wave?
 Some waves travel in a material in order for it to propagate or move,
what do you call this material which wave used to propagate?
 How does activity 1 and 2 differ in terms of the motion of the wave
from the source through the medium?
 Before we have started our activity, I have introduced the word
parallel and perpendicular. Now in the activity that you have
conducted which of the two exhibits the perpendicular motion of
wave? How about the parallel motion of the wave?
 Call one student to draw on the board the transverse wave and
another student to draw longitudinal wave.
 Now, how does a transverse wave different from a longitudinal wave?
 Why did we use ribbon in the activity?
 Did you learn something from the activity?
ELABORATE (Applying and Making use of information)

Checking misconceptions LCD Projector
Enumerate real- life examples of waves (sound, light,
electromagnetic)
EVALUATE (Measuring Learning)

a. Move in circles
b. Move in ellipses
c. Move parallel to the direction of travel
d. Move perpendicular to the direction of travel
______2. The substance through which a wave travel is called a
a. Source c. medium
b. Through d. disturbance
______3. A pulse sent down a long string eventually dies away and
disappears. What happens to its energy?
a. The energy is transferred from the wave to the environment
b. The energy remains along the length of the string
c. The energy disappears with the wave
d. The pulse does not carry energy

Think about a gold coin found by Pedro and Ramon on the sea floor. What
kind of wave behavior can bring the gold coin close to the shore?
