Unit Overview

Main Idea (Claim) Summative Assessment

Acceleration and Speed Test

Guiding Questions Objectives (know/understand/do/value)

Students will know about the Speed and

1. What is acceleration? Acceleration
They will know how to calculate speed and
2. What is Speed? acceleration
They will know Sir Isaac Newton and Newton's
Laws of Motion.

Time Instructional Procedures and Strategies

15 min Beginning the Lesson:

Devotion( short prayer)
Review what was learned before like Speed and
Acceleration questions
First, ask students if the know about speed and
acceleration.
Introduce Speed and Acceleration.

20 min Developing the Lesson:

Practice problem on how to calculate speed and
acceleration.

Introduce Sir Isaac Newton

Born on: December 25th, 1643
Died: March 31st, 1727
Developed Laws of Motion
Described force of Gravity
Famous Mathematician

Then, Introduce Newton's 3 law of Motion

1. Newton's First Law of Motion
"An object at rest or motion stays at rest or motion
 unless acted on by an unbalanced force".

2. Newton's Second Law of Motion

"Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a
mass. The greater the mass (of the object being
accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed
(to accelerate the object).

3. Newton's Third Law of Motion

For every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction

10 min Closing the Lesson:

Tell students to memorize the vocabulary
words and Newton's Laws of Motion

Formative Assessment Differentiation

Ask students to write the

definition of speed and
acceleration, see students works
on their notebook
