This lesson plan outlines a 45-minute physics lesson for 8th grade students on the concept of force. The teacher will begin by posing a puzzle question to inspire learning. Students will then work in groups on activities and discussions applying the concept of force to examples like rolling a ball and pushing a door. They will also complete a worksheet and watch a video with more examples. The teacher will explain that force changes the state of rest or motion of an object, with the unit being Newton. By the end of the lesson, students should be able to define force, explain examples of it, and realize its importance. They will also be assigned extended activities involving classifying forces as push or pull in diagrams.

CLASSROOM INTERACTION PROCEDURE EXPECTED RESPONSE
INTRODUCTION
Teacher begins the class by asking a puzzle
question
A student entering the HM’s room happens to see
the writing on the glass door
What do the indicate?
Through the question teacher inspires students to
learn more about force.
PRESENTATION
Teacher splits the students into different groups
Students answer the questions
Students from the group

3. Activity –I
 Applying a force on a rolling ball, slowly
pushing it in the opposite direction with the
leg.
 Pushing a wall
 Pushing a door
 A piece a sponge in pressed
Discussion points
 What do we observe when the ball is
kicked?
 What happens to the sponge, when it is
pressed?
 What happens to the door when it is
pushed?
Discussion
Teacher give instruction to complete the work sheet
through discussion.
Worksheet
Activity Result
 Pulling a cow
 Strikes a cricket ball with a
bat
 Drawing water from a well
 Pushes the drawer of the table
Concept formation
Through completing the worksheet the teacher
explain the concept that force is that which changes
or tends to change the shape, size, volume
Students discuss
Student complete worksheet
Students listen

4. State of rest or state of motion of a body. The unit
force is Newton
VIDEO PRESENTATION
Teacher shows the video of application of force in
daily life activities
Teacher give instruction to find out more examples
of force with the help of internet.
VALUE INTEGRATION
Teacher links the concept with life related values.
Good advices are acted like a fore which can
change the state of rest or state of motion of person.
SUMMARIZATION
Teacher summarize the concept
Review
Teacher ask the following questions to the students
Define force?
What are the applications of force?
EXTENDED ACTIVITIES
Observe the diagrams in the text book and classify
them into push and pull.
