A SEMI-DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE 9

I.OBJECTIVE:
At the end of the lesson, the learners will be able to:
1. relate color with temperature of a star; and
2. explain the factors that may affect the brightness of a star.

II. SUBJECT - MATTER:

A. TOPIC: Constellations
SUBTOPIC: Characteristics of a Star
B. CONCEPTS:
a. The brightness of a star as seen from the Earth depends on two factors – distance
and the actual brightness (or absolute brightness) of the star.
b. The star’s brightness as seen from Earth is its “apparent brightness”.
c. Astronomers consider the star’s “absolute brightness when comparing stars. A star’s
absolute brightness is the brightness the star would have if all stars were the same
standard distance from Earth.
d. Star color ranges from red to blue. The color of the star indicates the surface
temperature.

III. LEARNING TASKS:
A. ELICIT
Let the students sing the song – “Twinkle, twinkle, little star!”

B. ENGAGE:
Ask the Key Questions:

b. How is star described in the song?
c. What other descriptions can you describe about a star aside from the song you have sung?.

C. EXPLORE:
1. Let the students watch a video related to the characteristics of stars. Use the site:
https://youtu.be/d0lp0rhGRzw
2. Ask the Essential Question:
“ What are the characteristics of a star?”
3. Working in groups, students will perform the Activity 1: Characteristics of Stars, and
will follow Guided Activity from the Learner’s Material, pp. 214-215.

D. EXPLAIN:
By group, students will present their answers using manila papers by following Guide
Questions:
1. What is the color of the filament as you dim the bulb?
2. What is the color of the filament as you turn the switch at full power?
3. What happens to temperature of the filament as the bulb becomes brighter and
brighter?

E. ELABORATE:
Ask the following questions:
1. What is one of the characteristics of a star?
2. How does color relate with the temperature of a star?
3. What two factors affect the brightness of a star?

IV.EVALUATE:
Choose the letter of the best answer. Use the table below that presents information about stars
A, B, C and D.
Star Color
A Red
B Yellow
C White
D Blue

1. Which star is the hottest?

a. A b. B c. C d. D
 2. Which star is very similar to our sun?
a. A b. B c. C d. D
3. Which is the coolest star?
a. A b. B c. C d. D
4 – 5. What 2 factors affect the brightness of the star?

V. EXTEND
Ask this question:
“ Do all stars have the same brightness? Why? ”

Below is a text version of the animation How a Geothermal Power

Plant Works.

This animation is meant to convey in simple terms what happens in

the operation of a geothermal power plant. Aspects such as
exploration, resource verification, site preparation, construction,
geothermal fluid processing, and power conditioning are not shown
or described in the interest of simplicity, and so the viewer can
more readily grasp the basic operating concepts.

WELLS ARE DRILLED

A production well is drilled into a known geothermal reservoir.

Typically, an injection well is also drilled to return used geothermal
fluids to the geothermal reservoir. Hot geothermal fluids flow
through pipes to a power plant for use in generating electricity.

STEAM TURNS THE TURBINE

Hot, pressurized geothermal fluid, or a secondary working fluid, is

allowed to expand rapidly and provide rotational or mechanical
energy to turn the turbine blades on a shaft.

THE TURBINE DRIVES THE ELECTRIC GENERATOR

Rotational energy from the turning turbine shaft is used directly to

spin magnets inside a large coil and create electrical current. The
turbine and generator are the primary pieces of equipment used to
convert geothermal energy to electrical energy.

TRANSMISSION - POWER LINES DELIVER ELECTRICITY

Electrical current from the generator is sent to a step-up

transformer outside the power plant. Voltage is increased in the
transformer and electrical current is transmitted over power lines to
homes, buildings, and businesses.
 Chemical energy in the coal converted to thermal energy in the exhaust gases of
combustion. Thermal energy of the exhaust gases converted into thermal energy of
steam through the heatexchanger. ... Mechanical energy of the turbine converted to
electrical energy by the generator, which is the ultimate output.

The turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical
energy.Generator. Connected to the turbine by shafts and possibly gears so when
theturbine spins it causes the generator to spin also. Converts the mechanical
energy from the turbine into electric energy.

Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators,

primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other
means such as the kinetic energyof flowing water and wind. Other energy sources
include solar photovoltaics and geothermal power.

From prehistoric times, humans have utilized thegeothermal energy that flows freely
from underground reservoirs to the Earth's surface. ... Heating and cooling buildings
via geothermal heat pumps that utilize shallow sources; Heating structures with direct-
use applications; and. Generating electricity through indirect use ..
Today, at some locations around the country, geothermal energy is used to generate
electricity, or geothermal heat is used directly for applications such as space heating,
