A DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE FOR GRADE 7

Depasucat, Jikka Antonette S.

Lluisma, Kresha M.
Quijano, Norreen B.

I. OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson the Grade 7 students will be able to:
1. Classify the organelles of the cell according to the four different major functions;
2. Explain the functions of animal and plant cell organelles;
3. Recognize the importance of cells in the preservation of human life.

A. CONTENT STANDARDS
The learners demonstrate understanding of the difference between animal and plant
cells.

B. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The learners should be able to employ appropriate techniques using the compound
microscope to gather data about very small objects.

C. LEARNING COMPETENCIES
Explain why the cell is considered the basic structural and functional unit of all
organisms; (S7LT-IIe-5)

II. SUBJECT MATTER

a. Topic: Animal and Plant Cells
b. References: Science 7 Manual, Quarter 4, DepEd pp. 285-300
c. Materials: printed materials, chalk, board, powerpoint
d. Concept:
Both plant and animal cells contain nucleus along with similar organelles. One
of the distinctive aspects of a plant cell is the presence of a cell wall outside the cell
membrane. An animal cell is a eukaryotic cell, meaning it contains nucleus and
membrane-bound little organs called organelles, which performs different functions
inside the cell.
e. Process Skills: Explaining, Classifying, Recognizing, Sharing
f. Values: Cooperation, Participation, Teamwork

TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY

A. Activating Prior Knowledge

Good morning, Class! Good morning, Ma’am.

 How are you today? We are fine, Ma’am.

May we all stand for the prayer.

Who can lead the prayer? (Student will lead the prayer)

Okay, you may now take your seat.

Before we start the class, simple house

rules will be imposed all throughout the
session.

(The teacher will read the house rules)

●Checking of Attendance
Let me check the attendance first.
Class officer/beadle, is there anyone
absent for today? None, Ma’am.

Impressive! Everyone is present.

Please keep all the unnecessary things in

your bags so that you can focus and
listen well to our topic.

Kindly pass your assignment in front.

Make sure you already read about it
because it has something to do with our
activity for today.

(Students pass their assignment)

REVIEW
●Review of the past lesson
 Who among you can still recall our
previous topic?
Anyone? Yes, ________?

That’s right! Okay now, let’s recall if

you can still identify the animal and
plant cell and its parts. Our topic last meeting was all about
parts of the plant and animal cells.

Q1. Where is the plant cell and animal

cell here? A B

Letter A is the animal cell and letter B

is the plant cell

Q2. What are the differences based on

their shapes and organelles?

Plant cells are rectangular or angular or

Q3. Now, let’s identify what parts in the
plant and animal cell are shown in the
picture.
rigid in shape and it has chloroplast
and centrioles, while animal cells are
rounded and somewhat irregular or
spherical or cylindrical and a
lysosome.

MOTIVATION

(Guess the Picture)

Let’s have a short game. Are you ready?

The title of this game is “Guess the

Picture”. I have here a stuffed toy which
you will pass to your classmates until
you hear the word “stop”. Whoever
holds the toy shall guess the name of the The centrioles are present in animal
picture on the screen. cells only.

Okay, let’s begin! The cell wall and chloroplast are

present in plant cells only.

Stop!
