Lesson Plan 13
I. Objective
Identify the parts of the Digestive System.
Draw the different parts of the Digestive System.
Explain how Digestive System Functions
II. Content
Subject matter/ topic
The Digestive System - Grade 7
IV. Procedure
A. Preliminary Activity
LO2 Review :
Ask your students about the previous discussion about the circulatory system.
LO3. Motivation
Ask the students a question.
“ Do you ever wonder what happened to the food that we eat? “
“ Do you ever wonder how important digestive system in our body?
“What would happen to the food we digest ?
V. Developmental Activity
Mouth- the mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract; and, in fact, digestion starts here when
taking the first bite of food.
Esophagus- located in your throat near your trachea (windpipe), the esophagus receives food
from your mouth when you swallow.
Stomach- the stomach is a hollow organ, or "container," that holds food while it is being mixed
with enzymes that continue the process of breaking down food into a usable form.
Small intestine- made up of three segments - the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum - the small
intestine is a 22-foot long muscular tube that breaks down food using enzymes released by
the pancreas and bile from the liver.
Pancreas- the pancreas secretes digestive enzymes into the duodenum, the first segment of
the small intestine.
Liver- the liver has multiple functions, but its main function within the digestive system is
to process the nutrients absorbed from the small intestine.
Gallbladder-the gallbladder stores and concentrates bile, and then releases it into the
duodenum to help absorb and digest fats.
Colon (large intestine)- the colon is a 6-foot long muscular tube that connects the small
intestine to the rectum.
Rectum-the rectum (Latin for "straight") is an 8-inch chamber that connects the colon to
the anus.
B. Analysis : group students into two groups and then let them arrange the scramble words
below.
1. OMTHU - anterior opening of the alimentary canal is the
2. ALIVARSY SLANDG - exocrine glands that produce saliva in the oral cavity.
4. LLSMA INSTENINE - is a long tube, which loosely coils in the abdomen area. Here,
enzymes from the pancreas and liver further break down the food.
5. GARLE INSTENINE- The large intestine is a long muscular tube that has different
parts, which are caecum, colon, and rectum.
Q: What is digestion?
Ans. Digestion is the process of converting complex food substances (molecules) into simpler forms
to facilitate absorption.
Q: What are the various organs and parts associated with the Human Digestive System?
Ans. The Digestive System in humans starts with the mouth or oral cavity, leading to the alimentary
canal. The alimentary canal consists of the following – pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small
intestine, large intestine, and anus. The small intestine divides into three parts namely, the
duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, while the large intestine divides into an appendix, caecum, colon,
and rectum. The liver, gallbladder, pancreas, teeth, salivary glands, tongue, etc. also have a role to
play in the digestive system.
D. Application: let the students make their own model or version of the digestive system
and label it.
1. Assessment
Let the students present their work in the class and explain how does each part function.
2. Assignment :
“Do a research about the nervous system and advance reading about it. “

IV. PROCEDURES:
A. Preliminary Activities
ELICIT
Drill : Recall the previous lessons.
What causes the water to evaporate?
Why there are rains?
ENGAGE
Let the students arrange the Jumbled letters.
TIONPITACIPRE – It is where water falls in a form of rain.
DENSACONTION – It is where water vapor turns back to water
POREVAATION – It is where water becomes vapor
Answer: 1. Precipitation
2. Condensation
3. Evaporation
B. Developmental activity
EXPLORE
Students will group themselves into 3 and perform the ff. tasks.
Task 1: Drop a water into the ground and observe what will happen to the
water. Where does the water go?
Our topic for today is about “Water cycle”. Our objective is to explain how Water
cycle occur. The teacher gives the instructions on the activity to be performed by the
students. Please refer to learners’ material in Science 7 pp. 351-353. (Activity 12
“Are there shadows in space?”).
Teaching Part:
Evaporation happens when sunlight or air convert water into a water vapor and rises
into the atmosphere. Afterwards, Condensation takes place when water vapor turns back
into water and forming a dome of cloud due o suspended water droplets. Finally, a
Precipitation occurs due to large mass of water and it drops into the land in a form of rain.
