 assignments and pass it in front.” assignments and will pass it in front.)

“Thankyou.”

B. Engage
 Drill
1. Let the students read the word that is
written on the manila paper.

“All together please read”

(Parts of plant and animal cells)
*Cell wall, Cell membrane, Golgi apparatus,
vacuole membrane, chloroplast, raphide
crystal, druse crystal, mitochondrion,
cytoplasm, ribosome, Golgi visicle, smooth
endoplasmic reticulum (no ribosomes),
nucleolus, rough endoplasmic reticulum, large
central vacuole, amyloplast (starch grain).

*Mitochondria, plasma membrane, cytoplasm,

microtubule, centrosome, microfilament,
lysosome, smooth endoplasmic reticulum,
vacuole, secretory vesicle, Golgi vesicle, Golgi
apparatus, chromatin, nucleolus, nucleus,
rough endoplasmic reticulum, ribosome,
intermediate filament.

“What did you observe from the words

that is written on the manila paper?”

“Ma’am I think it’s all about the parts of Plant

cell and Animal cell”

“Very good! It’s all about the parts of

Plant cell and Animal cell.”

1. Review
 The students will be shown of an
environment with different living
organisms. They will be asked to identify
the living organisms in the picture and
what those living organisms usually eat
and consume that can also be found in
the picture.

C. EXPLORE
1. Motivation

“Okay class, I’ll show you the food chain

and food web pictures. And I want you to
take down notes on what you observe
about pictures.”

“We have here (the picture of food chain

and food web).”
“What can you notice about the picture?”

“Ma’am” (raising hands)

“Yes Ms. ______?”

“Ma’am, that is food chain and food web and

it’s structures/process.”

“Okay, bright idea!”

“Who can explain about the food chain?”

 “Ma’am!” (raising hands)

“Yes Mr. ______?”

“In a food chain, there is a straight line from

producers to first consumers to second
consumers to third consumers.”

“What about the food web?”

“Ma’am!” (raising hands)

“Yes, Ms. _____?”

“In food web, each organism eats and is eaten

by 2 or more organisms. So, everything is
connected by a web.”

“Very Good!”
2. Presentation

“I will be showing you the proper

arrangement of food chain and food web.
Are you ready guys?”

“Yes ma’am!”

“So, this the proper arrangement of food

chain.”

“Can someone identify the producer?”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hands)

“Yes Mr.__________?”

“The grass.”

“How about the primary consumer?”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hand)

“Very Good Mr.____!”

“The grasshopper.”

“How about the secondary consumer?”

 “Ma’am!” (Raising hands)

“Yes, Ms. _____?”

“The frog.”

“Very Good Ms.____!”

“How about the tertiary consumer?”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hand)

“Yes, Ms. _____?”

“The snake.”

“Very Good Ms.____!”

“How about the final consumer and

decomposer?”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hand)

“Yes, Mr. _____?”

“The final consumer is hawk and the

decomposer is fungi.”

“Very Good Mr. ____ and class!”

3. Pre-Activity
“I would like you to prepare 1 whole sheet
of paper and I want you to draw the Plant
and Animal cell. Girls will draw the Plant
cells and Animal cells for the Boys.” (Students will prepare 1 whole sheet of paper
and other things needed.)

“But before the activity, I will remind you to

avoid putting many things above your desk
and lessen your noises.” “Yes ma’am!”

“Can I expect that from you guys?”

“Yes ma’am!”
“Very good!”
 4. Activity Proper
Each students will list the functions of Plant
and Animal cells. (Prepare 1 whole sheet of paper)

After that, the Teacher will assign the

classroom President to collect their activity
and pass it in front.

“Ms. President, kindly collect al your papers

and put it in my desk.” (Classroom President will collet their papers
and will put it on Teacher’s desk.)

D. EXPLAIN
1. Discussion
After the Activity, the Teacher will give
comments and feedback to their works.

“As I can see, you did very well class. Very “Thank you ma’am!”
good!”

“Now, let's explain and understand more

about the Plant cell and Animal cell. Are “Yes ma’am”
you ready?

“Very good!”

The teacher will post a written report about

Plant cell and Animal cell on the board.

“Let’s define first what is Plant cell. Who

wants to define cell? Anyone in the class?” “Ma’am!” (Raising hands)

“Yes, ____?”
“Plant cell Is the basic units of all plants.”

“That’s correct, Very good!”

“Meaning they have a membrane-bound

nucleus and organelles.”
“Now let’s define Animal cell”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hands)

“Yes, _____?”

“Animal cell are the basic structural and

functional units of animal tissues and organs.”
“That’s correct!”

“It’s means that, unlike prokaryotic cells,

animal cells have membrane-bound
organelles suspended in the cytoplasm
enveloped by a plasma membrane.”

“Animals are made up of millions of

cells. Animal cells have an irregular
structure and are made up of four key
parts.”

“What are the four key parts? Anyone?”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hands)
“Yes, _____?

*Nucleus
*Cell membrane
*Cytoplasm
*Mitochondria

“Very good!”

 “Plant cells have a nucleus, cell

membrane, cytoplasm and
mitochondria too. Plant cells have three
extra components it also contains
structures.”

“What are the three components?”

“Ma’am!” (Raising hands)
“Okay Mr. ___?
*Cell wall
*Vacuole
*Chloroplast
 “Very good Mr. _____!”

“Now we move now on Eukaryotic cell

“Ma’am!” (Raising hands)
What does it mean?”

“A eukaryotic cell contains membrane-

bound organelles such as a
nucleus, mitochondria, and an endoplasmic
reticulum. Organisms based on the
eukaryotic cell include protozoa, fungi,
plants, and animals. These organisms are
grouped into the
biological domain Eukaryota. Eukaryotic
cells are larger and more complex than
prokaryotic cells found in domains Archaea
and bacteria.”
“That’s right!”

“Eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a

nucleus and organelles, and are
enclosed by a plasma membrane.
Organism that have eukaryotic cells
include protozoa, fungi, plants and
animal. These organism are grouped
into the biological domain Eukaryota.”

“Is that all clear?”

“Yes, ma’am!”
“Very good!”

E. ELABORATE
1. Generalization
“Again, from our discussion, this is the is “Ma’am! (Raising hands)
the basic units of all plants.”

“Yes, ____? *Plant cell

“Very good!”

“Next, this is the basic structural and

functional units of animal tissues and “Ma’am! (Raising hands)
 organs.”

“Yes, ____?

*Animal cell

“It contains membrane-bound organelles

such as nucleus, mitochondria, and
endoplasmic reticulum.” “Ma’am! (Raising hands)

“Yes, ____?
*Eukaryotic cell

“That’s correct! Very good!”

2. Application

The students with their respective groups

will be given a cartolina and drawing
materials. They will be asked to draw their
own food chain and food web.

F. EVALUATION

“Let's do this Activity. Kindly Prepare 1 whole

sheet of paper.”

-A short quiz will be given to the students. They

will be asked to identify the proper arrangement
of food chain and food web.
