A. Preliminary Activities.
1. Prayer.
Everyone please stand up for the prayer,
Ariel please led the prayer.
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be
Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us
not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
2. Greetings.
Good morning class!
How are you today? Good morning sir.
We are fine sir.
3. Preparing the Classroom and Checking of
Attendance.
Before you sit please pick up some pieces of papers
under your chair and arrange your chairs properly. (Students are picking up some pieces of papers
and arrange their chairs properly).
Secretary please give me the list of absent students today.
Thank you
Yes, Sir.
4. Classroom rules
Before we start we start I would like to introduce to you
our classroom rules; first, raise your hands when you want
to speak. Second, participate in every activities. Third,
respect other ideas and lastly, stay in your group. (Students are listening)

Do you understand?
Do you have any questions?
Yes, sir.
B. Review No, Sir.
Now let’s review the lesson we discussed yesterday, Are
you ready?
Yes, Sir. We are ready.
 What was our lesson yesterday all about?
Yes, Mary? (Students are raising their hands).

Yes, Great job Mary, Please have a sit.

Our lesson yesterday is all about the “Causes

of species extinction”.
Now, what are the Causes of species extinction?
(students raising their hands)
Yes, Carmela?
In general terms, species become extinct for
the following reasons:
 *Demographic and genetic
phenomena. First of all, species with small
populations face a greater risk of extinction.
 *Destruction of wild habitats.
 *Introduction of invasive species.
 *Climate change.
 *Hunting and illegal trafficking.

Absolutely yes, that is the causes of species extinction.

Clap your hands to Carmela.
(students clapping)
Do you have any questions?
No, sir.
C. Motivation

Now, I will group you into three groups. I have here a

box and there are three different colors inside. Pick one
and move to your group color. Yellow Group will be here,
Blue group will be here and the Green group will be here. I
will give you 10 seconds to find your group mates and form
a circle and present your yell in class. The first group that
will be able to perform first will receive 20 points, second
(Students Picks their color)
will receive 15 points and third will receive 10 points.
Are you ready?
Ready Go…
Yes, Sir we are ready!

(Students are going to their respective groups

and preparing their Yell)
Yellow group was the first group to perform.

Yellow Group -20 points

Green group - 15 points

corresponding points)

20 points

15 points

10 points

Now, I have three envelops these envelops contains

pieces of pictures that is being cut. All you have to do is to
arrange this pieces of picture to form a complete image
and paste it on the board and perform your yell. The first (Students are listening)
group who can finish the task will receive an additional 10
points. Is that clear?
Ready go. Yes, sir.

(students are arranging the puzzles)

Great job green group. You are the first group who
finished the task. You will receive an additional 10 points.

(Green group paste their work on the board and

presenting their yell)
Keep going yellow and blue group.

Well done class. Please give a round of applause. (Yellow and Blue group successfully finished the
task)
What can you see in the picture?
(Students clapping)
Yes, Mark?

Good job Mark, have a sit, yeah these three things are the
three major components for the plants to make their own I can see a plant, sun and water.
food and the process is called “Photosynthesis”.

Thank you very much!

 E. Discussion

What is Photosynthesis?

Yellow group please read.

Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that

takes place inside a plant, producing food for the
plant to survive.

Carbon dioxide, water and light are all needed

for photosynthesis to take place.

Photosynthesis happens in the leaves of a

Exactly, that is what Photosynthesis is. plant.
Class, Do you ever wonder how this process takes place?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics
Now, I will play a short video and I want you to listen /zvrrd2p/articles/zn4sv9q
carefully because after playing this video I will ask you
some questions. Do you understand? Yes, Sir.

(Teachers Play the video)

Video Link
https://youtu.be/K8OssnSp8ks Yes, Sir.

Based from the video you watched, What are the three
things that are needed for Photosynthesis? (Students are watching the video)

Yes, Amy?

That is Perfect Amy. Thank you! Please sit

Down. Carbon dioxide, water and light are all needed
for photosynthesis to take place.

The process of photosynthesis

Plants need food to respire, grow and reproduce. Unlike

animals, plants are able to make their own food by the
process of photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis takes place in the part of the plant cell

containing chloroplasts, these are small structures that
contain chlorophyll.

For photosynthesis to take place, plants need to take in

carbon dioxide (from the air), water (from the ground) and
light (usually from the sun).

Here is the word equation for photosynthesis:

(Students listening)

Here is the chemical equation for photosynthesis:

 Carbon dioxide enters through the stomata on the
underside of the leaf.

Water is absorbed by the root hair cells and is

transported to the leaf by the xylem vessels.

Sunlight provides the energy needed for photosynthesis

to take place. In this process carbon dioxide and water are
converted into oxygen (a waste product that is released
back into the air) and glucose (the source of energy for the
plant).

Oxygen is released through the stomata on the

underside of the leaf; glucose is transported around the
plant in the phloem vessels.

Class, do you have question with regards with our

lesson?

Yes, Jeffery? Sir I have question.

Good question Jeffrey, What is Xylem?

Xylem is the specialized tissue of vascular plants that

transports water and nutrients from the plant–soil
interface to stems and leaves, and provides mechanical
support and storage.

Do you understand class?

Yes sir.

Yes, Dave? I have another question sir.

How about Phloem sir?

Good question Dave. What is Phloem?

Phloem is living tissue, responsible for transporting food

and other organic materials.
Any other questions?

Great, I guess you all understand our discussion for this

No, Sir.
morning prepare yourself for the activity.

F. Application

This time, I will give each group a marker and Manila

paper. All you have to do is to draw or sketch how the
process of Photosynthesis takes place. If you have some
coloring materials you can also utilize that to make your
work more colorful and attractive and explain your work.

(Teacher’s distribute the materials to the students)

Great job everyone.

Explain your work. Let’s start with the yellow group.

This is our work,

This is the process of photosynthesis where

Good job yellow group, give them round of applause. plants make their own food using the sunlight,
water and carbon dioxide.
Next we have the Blue group. Explain your work. (Students clapping)

Good job, Blue group and last but not the least, the This is our work, the process of Photosynthesis.
green group. The stomata captures sunlight and uses for
photosynthesis together with the water and
carbon dioxide.
 This is the process of photosynthesis by which
plants make their own food using sunlight, water
and carbon dioxide. The leaves of the plant
Good work class. All of you guys did a great job in class. contain green pigment called Chlorophyll.
Give yourself a barangay clap. Chlorophyll capture sunlight and Stomata
captures Carbon dioxide and roots extracts water
G. Generalization and the photosynthesis takes place in the leaves
of the plant.
During the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide
enters through the stomata, water is absorbed by the root (students are clapping)
hairs from the soil and is carried to the leaves through the
xylem vessels. Chlorophyll absorbs the light energy from
the sun to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.
The hydrogen from water molecules and carbon dioxide
absorbed from the air are used in the production of
glucose. Furthermore, oxygen is liberated out into the
atmosphere through the leaves as a waste product.
Glucose is a source of food for plants that provide
energy for growth and development, while the rest is
stored in the roots, leaves and fruits, for their later use.
(Students raising their hands)
What is the importance of Photosynthesis?
Who can Answer?

Yes Delos Reyes? Solar energy, transformed by photosynthesis,

is
The source of countless vegetable, animal and
Organic side products, without photosynthesis
living things unfortunately won’t survive and
eventually die.
What else?
Yes great answer. Sir, It directly or indirectly affects most life on
Earth.
Anyone from the class who can give me another
importance of photosynthesis.
Sir, It serves as the primary energy process for
Yes, Marie?
most trees and plants.
Good answer Marry. Class you are all correct.

Photosynthesis is important to living organisms because

it is the number one source of oxygen in the atmosphere.
Without photosynthesis, the carbon cycle could not occur,
oxygen-requiring life would not survive and plants would
die. Green plants and trees use photosynthesis to make
food from sunlight, carbon dioxide and water in the
atmosphere: It is their primary source of energy. The
importance of photosynthesis in our life is the oxygen it
produces. Without photosynthesis there would be little to
no oxygen on the planet.
