Setting Classroom Rules

Before we begin, I want to establish my rules
in our classroom to ensure a productive and
engaging learning experience for all of us.
Everyone, please read.
A- Always be Respectful and Kind
B- Be Friendly and Attentive
Y- Yearn for Learning and Enjoy
Checking of Attendance
We’ll now take attendance. Please say
‘present’ and raise your right hand if your
name is called and say ‘absent’ when your
classmate is absent. Understood?

Checking of Assignments
Do we have an assignment? Yes, ma'am.

If you have, pass your assignment notebook

to the center aisle. Yes, Ma’am.

Memory.

(Students who wish to answer are

Okay great. So what are the two types of
Memory? Ma’am, we have ROM and RAM.
ROM stands for Read Only Memory,
Yes, Justine? while RAM stands for Random
Access Memory.

None, Ma’am.
Excellent! So are there any clarification or
questions related to our last discussion?

Okay great. Thank you. It seems like the

lesson is well- understood, and everyone is
ready to move on to our next topic.
B. Establishing a purpose Before we proceed, let’s play a game first.
for the lesson Do you want to play a game? Yes Ma’am.
ENGAGE
Alright! Our game is called SEARCH
WORD PUZZLE. Here’s the mechanic of
the game. Everybody read. - You will be given a grid full of
letters along with a list of words to
find. The words may be hidden in
different directions—horizontally,
vertically, or diagonally—and can
appear forwards or backwards. When
you spot a word, mark or circle it
within the grid.
- Learners who participated will
receive their prize at the reward
station.

Ready? Yes Ma’am.

WORDS TO FIND:
 FLOPPY
 HARD
 FLASH
 OPTICAL
 DISK
 DRIVE
 STORAGE
Alright, before we start, let’s give ourselves a

Based on the words we discovered in the

game, what do you think our discussion will
be about this morning? Any ideas? (Students who wish to answer are
raising their right hands.)
 Yes, Mark?
Ma’am, I think it is all about Storage.
Great guess. Our discussion this morning
will be all about Storage Drives. But before
we jive in, let’s have first our learning
objectives. Everybody read. By the end of the lesson, the learners
will be able to:
1. Identify the different types of
storage drives.
2. Demonstrate how to use different
type of storage drives.
3. Value the importance of storage

Yes, Rhian?
A storage drive is a device that
stores and retrieves digital
information. Think of it as the digital
equivalent of a filing cabinet. It's
where your computer keeps all its
important files, such as operating
systems, applications, documents,
photos, videos, and music. Storage

Cloud Storage. Please read the what is Cloud
Storage, Sandra.

Cloud storage is a service that allows

you to store your digital data online,
rather than on a physical storage
device like a hard drive or USB
drive. Essentially, it's like having a
virtual hard drive on the internet.
So,this one is an icon of Cloud Storage. To
use cloud storage, first choose a provider
(Google Drive, OneDrive,iCloud) and create
an account. Then, access your storage via an
app or web browser, upload your files, and
organize them into folders. You can then
access, manage, and share these files from
any device with an internet connection.

Okay, next we have External Hard Drive.
