• Description:

  Download editable Grade 10 General Science Term 3 Record of Work 2026 - Mentor in Microsoft Word document format. A PDF version is also available upon your request.

  Aligned with the Mentor General Science textbook (pages 221 through 288), this downloadable Word document provides a rigorous 9-week curriculum delivery record at 5 lessons per week. It accounts for 45 lesson sessions covering rotational mechanics, linear equations of motion, free-fall ticker-timer experiments, wave acoustics, magnetic fields, and electromagnetic power generation.

  This Record of Work tracks curriculum progress across the following core strands and sub-strands:

  • Natural Physical Science:
    • Turning Effect of Force (Pivot Tools, Factors Affecting Moments, Principle of Moments, Balancing Metre Rules, Antiparallel Forces, Practical Applications in Spanners, See-Saws & Beam Balances)
    • Linear Motion (Distance vs Displacement, Pythagorean Displacement Vectors, Scalar Speed vs Vector Velocity, 50 m Field Timing, Unit Conversions [km/h to m/s], Acceleration & Retardation Formulas, Three Linear Motion Equations, Ticker-Timer Free Fall Gravity Analysis [g = 10 m/s²], Slope Hazards & Runway Take-off Calculations)
    • Waves (Transverse & Longitudinal Waves, Amplitude, Wavelength, Period & Frequency [f = 1/T], Deriving Wave Equation [v = fλ], Ripple Tank Velocity Measurements, Laws of Sound Reflection, High Wall Echo Timing, Sound Diffraction Behind Barriers, Coastal Wave Erosion, Sea Walls, Noise Control & Road Reflector Safety)
    • Magnetism (Temporary Magnetisation by Induction & Stroking, Electromagnet Assembly, Hammering Along Magnetic Meridian, Demagnetisation via AC Solenoids & Heat, Field Patterns for Like/Unlike Poles, Induced EMF, Moving Conductors in U-Fields, Dynamo & Wireless Charging Technology, Electric Bell Modeling)
  • Assessment, Review, and Target Setting:
    • Practical Skill Assessments on Moments, Equations, and Induction
    • Summative Written Examination, Model Audit, Script Feedback, and Goal Setting

  Key scientific learning outcomes and laboratory proficiencies logged across the term include:

  • Investigating rotational forces on pivoted uniform beams, balancing unequal suspended masses, and solving multi-force moment problems.
  • Differentiating distance from vector displacement using coordinate measurements and applying equations of motion (v = u + at, s = ut + 0.5at², v² = u² + 2as) to calculate vehicle acceleration and aircraft runway lengths.
  • Setting up ticker-timer apparatus with falling masses to measure acceleration due to gravity on paper tape strips.
  • Determining wave velocity in ripple tanks, deriving v = fλ, verifying the laws of sound reflection, and calculating barrier distances from acoustic echoes.
  • Demonstrating diffraction around architectural obstacles, evaluating coastal erosion defenses, and analyzing road safety reflector applications.
  • Constructing electromagnets, tracing field lines with plotting compasses, and exploring induced EMF for dynamos, transformers, and induction cookers.
  • Assembling and troubleshooting working electric bell circuits using batteries, coils, nails, and contact switches.

  Classroom learning activities include ticker-timer analysis, stopwatch field tracks, ripple tank wave generation, high wall echo timing, electromagnet fabrication, and electric bell testing. Evaluative tools comprise data recording matrices, formula recall tests, practical performance scoring, project portfolio checks, and summative examination papers.

  The record provides structured weekly administrative layouts with lesson allocations, textbook reference pages, teacher reflection spaces, and official headmaster evaluation and signature blocks.
