III. Procedure
A. Engagement
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
a. Greetings:
“Good morning class.” “Good morning ma’am.”
b. Opening prayer:
“Mike, please led the prayer.” Earl: “Let us put ourselves in the
presence of the Lord. In the name of the
Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit.
Praise be thy name of our Lord Jesus
Christ”.
Others: “Now and forever, Amen.”
All: “In the name of the Father, and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit Amen.”
“Please be seated.”
c. Checking of attendance:
“Beadle is there any absentees today?” Beadle: “There are no absentees today.
All are present ma’am.”
d. Checking of assignment:
“Leaders of the group, did you “Yes ma’am.”
check the assignment of your group
members?”
B. Exploration
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
“Our topic for today is about this”
(Teacher will present a diagram of
photosynthesis to the class.)
“So who can tell me what the diagram is all Kelpie: “Balancing equation ma’am
about? Moreover, why do you think so? Yes, because there is a chemical equation.”
Kelpie?”
“Okay thank you Kelpie. How about you
Lydia?”
“Thank you also Lydia. So Lydia’s right, this
diagram represents the process of
photosynthesis.”
C. Explanation/ Elaboration
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
“So our topic for today is all about
photosynthesis”
(The teacher will flash pictures.)
“Class what do you think is the Bridgette: “They are important raw materials
significance of those pictures? Yes or the reactants for photosynthesis.”
Bridgette?”
“Is it correct class?” “Yes ma’am.”
“Okay, that’s correct. It is true that Ermine: “Without the presence of light energy
carbon dioxide, water and light energy coming from the sun, plants cannot make their
are the important factors in the process own food.”
of photosynthesis. What do you think is
the role of light in this process? Yes
Ermine?”
“Ermine is correct. The light energy is
very important in the process of
photosynthesis. The captured light “Yes ma’am.”
energy from the sun is used to produce
the glucose/sugar, which is the food of
the plant and the oxygen. Is it clear?
“Based from the explanation that you Jade: “The reactants are the carbon dioxide,
had heard a while ago. What is now the water and light energy while the products are
general chemical reaction/equation of the glucose and oxygen.’
photosynthesis? Yes Jade?”
“Jade is correct. Now the general
balanced equation of photosynthesis is;
6CO2+6H2O+Light energy “None ma’am.”
C6H12O6+6O2
Are there any questions?”
“Okay let’s come now to the process of
photosynthesis. I have here a video
presentation. While you are watching “Yes ma’am.”
take note on how the process occurs.
Okay class?”
(After the video presentation)
“So what is now the first step/place that Elizabeth: “The chlorophyll which is the green
takes place in the process? Yes pigment inside the chloroplast in the plant cells
Elizabeth? captures the energy coming from the sun.”
“Very well said. Who else? Yes, Hatori: “The captured light energy is used to
Hatori?” produce glucose from water and carbon
dioxide.”
“That’s correct last one. Yes, Jemarie?” Jemarie: “The sugar/glucose produce are used
by the plant cells for energy and also oxygen
exits through the stomata on the underside of
the leaf.”
“Yes all that you have been said are “None ma’am”
true. Basically that is how the food
making of the plant happens. Are there
any questions?”
“So much for that get one half sheet of
paper”
IV. Evaluation
Enumeration and Identification
1-3 the reactants in the process of photosynthesis
4-5 the products in the process of photosynthesis
6. It captures the light energy from the sun.
7. It is a process whereby plants manufacture their own food.
8. It is where oxygen exits and it is found underside of the leaf.
9-10 the general balanced chemical equation of photosynthesis
