Activity 1: "Think of me wisely"

• Each student will go to Google form and participate in the activity. They will describe every photo presented in one word. There will be four photos to be shared on screen. After everyone has answered, the teacher will show the responses and ask some process questions.

B. Lesson proper

• Discussion will be done on google meet

Instructions:

• The students must follow the instructions presented by the teacher.

• The Students must answer the provided quiz after the lectures for extra points.

The Basics

There are many things to cover when it comes to different parts of a car and what they do, but starting with the basics is key. Having a foundational knowledge of the major components and car functions in your vehicle will serve you well in the long run.

Chassis

Chassis is a French term and was initially used to denote the frame or main structure of a vehicle. The chassis (Fig. 3.1) contains all the major units necessary to propel the vehicle, guide its motion, stop it and allow it to run smoothly over uneven surfaces. It is the main mounting for all the components including the body. It is also known as the carrying unit. The chassis includes the following major components. (i) A steel frame, which is a major part. (ii) In the case of a passenger car, the whole body is also an integral part of the chassis. However, in commercial vehicles like trucks and buses, the body is not a part of the chassis. Therefore, a chassis is almost a complete vehicle except for the body and other accessories, which are not involved in the movement of the vehicle.

Engine

It makes sense to start with the most important part under the hood of a vehicle, which is the engine. Most modern vehicles run on internal combustion engines, which generate energy by igniting a mixture of air and fuel that moves pistons, which in turn move the car.

There are also electric motors, which store energy in rechargeable batteries. Vehicles with electric engines accelerate faster than those with fuel-powered engines. Whether your car has a traditional or electric engine, it can’t run without it!

Brakes

The brakes on your car are used to help slow down and stop your vehicle, as well as keep it in place when parked. Most cars feature either a disc or drum brake system.

Parts in a disc brake system include calipers, rotors and pads. Drum brake systems are comprised of brake drums and shoes. All of these parts have the potential to wear down over time, and any changes to how your brakes sound or feel should lead you to get them checked.

Activity 2: Narrative summary

Instructions:

• Based on what you've learned about the lesson, in a piece of paper draw an illustration of any component part of a motor vehicle and explain its function. You also need to give 3 key importance of the component part you've chosen.

Criteria:

Clarity - 50%

Creativity - 30%

Simplicity - 20%

----------------------------

Total - 100%

D. Generalization

• The teacher will ask someone to wrap up the lessons

VI. Assignment

Instructions:

• .In your own words, discuss the similarities and differences of the component parts of a car and motorcycle. It should have at least 250 words.
