Lesson Plan in Science Grade 10
Time Frame: 60 minutes
Competency Code: S10MT- IVC-d-22
Learning Competency: Recognize the major categories of biomolecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acid.
I. Objectives
At the end of sixty minutes, the students will be able to: 1. Identify the major classes of Biomolecules;
2. Classify the different biomolecules according to their category; and 3. Give the importance of biomolecules in our daily lives
Subject Matter:
A. Topic: Biomolecules
B. Strategies: Comprehension and Conceptual Understanding C. Materials: marker , adhesive tape , cartolina
D. References: Grade 10 – Science Learner’s Material pages 443-446 E. Values: Enhance communication skills of the students, class participation
and cooperation
F. Science Concepts/ Key Concepts:
Major classes of biomolecules
a. Carbohydrates- is a very important source of energy b. Proteins - are the building blocks of life.
c. Lipids- better known as fats
d. Nucleic Acids - are very large and complex organic molecules that contain the genetic code.
2. Monomer is a building block that makes up a substance.
II. Development of the Lesson a. Preliminaries 1. Classroom Management 2. Prayer 3. Greetings 4. Attendance b. Review/Recap
The students will have a review on the previous topic. The students will be asked the following questions:
1. What are the types of chemical reaction? 2. What are the evidences of chemical reaction?
3. Give an example of a substance that undergoes chemical reaction.
Motivation
Students will be given chocolates and they will identify the ingredients. The students will be asked about their feelings after eating the chocolate.
III. Presentation of the Lesson
A. Activity
Activity Title: Picture Analysis Materials:
Set of pictures Adhesive tape Manila paper
Procedure:
1. The class will be divided into four (4) groups.
2. The facilitator will give each group a set of pictures and manila paper.
3. The students will classify the set of pictures according to carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids which was written on the manila paper.
4. They will be given only 3 minutes to do the task, after that they will post it on the board.
5. One representative will justify their answer on the class.
Rubrics
Areas to Assess 5 3 1
Cooperation
All members of the group cooperates in the activity Some members of the group cooperate in the activity
Few members of the group cooperate in
the activity
Classification
All pictures are classified accordingly
Some pictures are classified accordingly
Most of the pictures are classified inappropriately Promptness
The output was posted ahead of
time
The output was posted on time
The output posted past the time
required.
B. Analysis
The students will be asked the following questions:
Why did you classify the pictures in the carbohydrates? So how do you define carbohydrates in your own understanding? How about proteins? Lipids? and nucleic acids? Do you think the pictures fit in this category? Which do you think is/are not included in this category?
C. Abstraction
What are Biomolecules?
Biomolecules are large molecules that are needed in life.
1. Each group will be given 3 varied strips of paper about the elements, functions, and monomers of the four classes of biomolecules.
2. They will be given only 3 minutes to brainstorm of what specific biomolecules does each strip belongs base on its composition, function and types of monomer.
3. A group representative will post the 3 strips of paper based on what the group has agreed.
Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids
Functions: 1. Energy production 2. Energy storage Functions: 1.Great source of long term energy 2. Great for insulating through blubber/fat Functions: 1. Protein helps prevent infection and diseases. 2. Repair and maintenance Function: 1. carries genetic information in the cell
Composing Elements: Carbon, Hydrogen , and Oxygen(CHO) Composing Elements: Carbon, Hydrogen , and Oxygen (CHO) Composing Elements: Carbon, Hydrogen , Oxygen, and Nitrogen (CHON) Composing Elements: Carbon, Hydrogen , Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorous (CHONP) Monomer: monosaccharide Monomer: Glycerol and fatty acids Monomer: Amino acids Monomer: nucleotides Source of food: pasta, bread, rice, sweet potato, fruits and vegetables Source of food: Butter, oil, tuna, cheese, nuts, and chocolates Source of food: Fish, egg, grains, legumes, dairy products. Source of food: Seafoods, liver, spinach, mushrooms, and yeast. D. Application
Nutrients are essential to life, these are the substances needed by our bodies for growth and development. Regular consumption of the right amount of these substances can keep our bodies in good health. In order for us to be able to track our consumption of these nutrients, commercial
products put “nutrition facts” embedded on their labels so that consumers will have an idea of the contents they are taking in. On the other hand, too much, and improper consumption of these nutrients may lead to health problems such as obesity, osteoporosis, diabetes, gout, and heart disease.
E. Generalization
Biomolecules are important as they control almost every aspect of organisms. Carbohydrates provide the body with source of fuel and energy. Proteins provide structural support and also defense against germs and infections. Lipids in body are used as energy storage they are very important for they make up all animal cells. Lastly, nucleic acid carries genetic information in the cell.
