Calculating Work and Power

In this lesson the teacher will use scaffolding (I do, We do, You do) technique so students will be able to calculate work and power using the work and power equations.

(Intro)
The students will create work and power concept maps. (The following link by the Penn State University Libraries website will provide examples of concept maps and will also help you create a concept map if you are not sure how to create one: https://www.libraries.psu.edu/psul/lls/students/research_resources/conceptmap.html)

(I Do)
The teacher will then model work and power example problems.

(We do)
The students will complete 5 word problems and review answers on board.

(You do together)
The students will complete Power Climb in No Time Activity in groups and answer questions/orally discuss with teacher.

(Formative Evaluation)
The student will create new work and power concept maps and share with the class.

(You Do Independently)
The students will complete a 10 question summative evaluation based on concepts learned in lab and work and power equations.
