Component 1
Renewable & Non-Renewable Energy
Topic: Describe renewable and non-renewable forms of energy
| Strand: Forces & Energy | Sub-strand: Renewable & Non-Renewable Energy |
| Indicator: B8.4.1.2.1 Describe renewable and non-renewable forms of energy | Content Standard: B8.4.1.2 Show an understanding of the sources of renewable energy and how to manage these sources in a sustainable manner |
| Performance Indicator: Learners can describe renewable and non-renewable forms of energy | T.L.R.(s): Small solar panel, Charcoal pieces, Printed photographs of Akosombo Dam and a wind turbine |
Phase 1: Starterpreparing the brain for learning Revise with learners on the previous lesson. | Phase 2: Mainnew learning including assessment Concrete-resource task: Set out these resources for each group: Small solar panel; Charcoal pieces; Printed photographs of Akosombo Dam and a wind turbine. Learners observe and safely handle the specimens or apparatus, using them in the investigation or model below.
Brainstorm learners to explain renewable and non-renewable sources of energy.
guide learners to identify the various sources of renewable and non-renewable forms of energy and classify them e.g. wind, coal, hydro, crude oil, natural gas, solar and biogas. | Phase 3plenary / reflections Use peer discussion and effective questioning to find out from learners what they have learnt during the lesson. |
