Creating Microteaching Lesson Plan

This microteaching lesson plan for Grade 10 Physics focuses on Archimedes' Principle and relative density, with a 15-minute inquiry-based approach. Students will learn to describe the principle and conduct related experiments, including measuring upward thrust and understanding buoyancy. The lesson includes interactive activities to engage students and evaluate their understanding of the concepts.

INTRODUCTION
Introduce the lesson through questions
“what is density?”
“if the density of Aluminum is 2.7 kgm-3,
what is the relative density of aluminum?”
“why does ship not sink in the water?’
“which things are sink or float in the
water.”
Call a pupil in front of class to pick up a Wood

students the following questions
- “why wood is lighter in the water than
in the air?”
- “why does wood float in the water?
