LESSON PLAN Date Subject Class Time : 4 July 2008 (Friday) : Science : Form 2 Ilmu : 4.25pm-5.

25pm (60 minutes)

Number of Students : 45 students Students Ability Topic Sub-topic : Good : 5. Water and solution : 5.3 Evaporation of water

Prior Knowledge : Students are being taught the physical characteristics and their effects of impurities on the physical properties of water, composition of water. Learning Objectives : Students are able to analyse the process of evaporation of water. Learning Outcomes : Students will be able to: 1. Explain what evaporation is. 2. Explain through examples the factors that affect the rate of evaporation of water with reference to the kinetic theory. 3. Compare and contrast between evaporation and boiling. 4. Describe the application of the examples of evaporation in daily life. Teaching Approaches Teaching Aids Noble Values : Discovery learning

: Power point presentation, LCD screen, textbook, marker pen, teaching courseware : Cooperation, having an interest and curiosity towards the environment, being responsible about the safety of oneself, others, and the environment.

Critical and Creative Thinking Skills : Relating, predicting, making hypothesis, analyzing

Development of Concepts/Skills 1. Teacher assists the students to recall back the prior knowledge.

Students Activities 1. Students will listen to the teachers explanation and clear the misconception. Expected answer: 2. It is the process where the liquid water changes into steam at boiling temperature. 3. No. we will hang it during sunny. 4. Under the sunlight.

Classroom Discourse 1. Teacher will explain the mistakes made by the students in their previous homework. Teachers questions: 2. Class, what do you understand by the boiling process? 3. Good. Do we hang your clothes during rainy day? 4. Do you prefer to hang your clothes under the sun or in the house?

5. Because the sunlight will dry up the clothes 5. Why? faster. Expected answer: 2. Explain through examples the factors that affect the rate of evaporation of water with reference to the kinetic theory. 1. Humidity, surrounding temperature, surface environment and air movement. 2. It means slightly wet. 3. Humidity is the amount of water

Teachers question: 1. Class, what do you think the factors will affect the rate of evaporation? 2. Fantastic. Do you know what is meant by humid? 3. So, how do we define the word humidity? 4. Why do you think the

vapour in the air. 4. Humidity decreases, evaporation rate increases. 5. During raining season, the air around us is wet/ there is a lot of water vapour in the air. So, our clothes will dry slower if compare to the dry air during the sunny day. 6. It will decrease the rate of evaporation. 7. Surrounding temperature rises, evaporation rate increase.

amount of water vapour in the air will affect the rate of evaporation? 5. Can I have any example?

6. Good. That is the first factors. If the humidity in the air is increases, how does it affect the rate of evaporation? 7. All right. How surrounding temperature will affect the rate of evaporation? 8. Can I have any example, Jackson?

8. If we hang clothes 9. How surface areas affect under the strong the rate of evaporation? sunlight, the clothes will dry faster if compared to the rainy 10. Class, why dont we day. fold our shirts first before we hang it 9. Surface area instead of let it hang increases, openly? evaporation rate increases.

10. The shirts will become smaller and thicker if we hang our cloth by folding it. Our cloth will dry slower. In other word. It decreases the surface area of the clothes exposed to the sunlight. 11. 100cm3. This is because the mouth of the beaker is larger. The total water molecules at the surface are more. Hence the rate of evaporation is higher. 12. To make it cold.

11. If I fill a 100cm3 beaker and 50cm3 beaker with the same amount of alcohol, which one do you think will dry first? Why? 12. Class, why do you think when you drink a hot tea/ soup, you need to blow first before you drink it? 13. What are you blowing off? Soup/tea? 14. So, how air movements affect the rate of evaporation? 15. Can I have any daily life example?

13. The hot water vapour at the surface of the tea/soup. 14. Air movement increases, evaporation rate increases.

15. Our shirts will dry faster in windy day. Expected answer: 3. Compare and contrast between evaporation and boiling 1. No. They have its similarities and the differences? Students are required to discuss in their respective group regarding to the differences between the similarities and the differences between the evaporation and boiling, give 4 examples on the application of evaporation. Expected answer: a.) similarities Both processes involve changes from liquid state to the gaseous state. Both process involve absorb of heat energy.

Teachers question: 1.Class, do you think the evaporation process and the boiling process are the same? 2.All right. Discuss in you group a.) the similarities and the differences between the evaporation and boiling. b.) give four examples of the application of the evaporation in our daily life.

b. application Cooling the body, drying hair, drying clothes, drying agricultural products, drying fish and prawns and producing common salt. After 10 minutes, selected groups will ask to present their discussion to the class. Closure Feedback from students. 1. Evaporation is a process by which a liquid changes into its vapour. 2. Humidity, surface area, surrounding temperature, air movement. 3. Humidity is inversely

1. Class, can anyone tell me what is meant by evaporation? 2. What are the four factors that will affect the rate of evaporation?

proportional to the rate of evaporation/ humidity decreases, rate of evaporation increases. 4. If the surrounding temperature, surface area and the air movement increases, it will increase the rate of evaporation. Students have to do check point 5.3 in the textbook. Reflection :

3. What is the relationship between the humidity and the rate of evaporation?

4. How about the surrounding temperature, surface area and the air movement?
