Phase/Duration Learners Activities Resources
PHASE 1: STARTER Using questions and answers, revise with Whiteboard
learners what was studied in the previous
lesson.
Sample questions:
1. What’s the full meaning of ICT?
2. What is the difference between date and
information?
3. Why is ICT important in modern society?
Share the performance indicators with
learners.
PHASE 2: NEW Step 1: Definition of Hardware (3 mins)
LEARNING
- Define hardware as the physical parts of a
computer that can be touched.
- Give examples: keyboard, mouse, monitor.
Step 2: Classification of Hardware (4 mins)
- Input Devices: Keyboard, Mouse, Scanner.
- Processing Devices: CPU, Motherboard.
- Output Devices: Monitor, Printer, Speaker.
- Storage Devices: Hard Disk, USB Flash
Drive.
Step 3: Functions of Hardware Components
(3 mins)
- Explain how each category contributes to
computing.
- Use real-life examples: Typing a document
(Input: Keyboard → Processing: CPU →
Output: Monitor → Storage: Hard Disk).
PHASE 3: - Display images of different hardware
REFLECTION components and ask students to classify them.
- Students match hardware components with
their functions
Recap the key points.
- Ask students to name two hardware devices
and explain their functions.
Students list and describe five computer
hardware components and their functions.
- Research how hardware components interact
in a typical computer system.
