TEACHER HANDOUT
A. The teacher will check the level of understanding of the learners by unscrambling the letters then giving the
definition of the word.
Direction: Unscramble the letter by placing the correct letter in the second row of boxes to come up with the
correct answer. Use the numbered boxes to complete the answer to the riddle below.

1. The control center of the cell 3. The main site for photosynthesis

B. The teacher will print-out pictures of Biologists with their contributions on the discoveries of the cell.
1. Robert Hooke – discovered cells while looking at a thin slice of cork
2. Anton van Leeuwenhoek – invented the first microscope, known as the father of Microbiology
3. Matthias Schleiden – German Botanist who concluded that all plants are composed of cells
4. Theodor Schwann – stated that all animals are composed of cells
5. Rudolf Virchow- stated that living cells arise from pre-existing cells

C and D. The teacher will ask volunteer learners from each group and they will match the pictures of some
biologists with their contributions on the discovery of the cell. After matching the pictures with their
contribution, a gallery walk follows, where the detailed contributions are given.

Robert Hooke – the first one the apply the word “cell” to describe the basic
unit of life

TEACHER HANDOUT


Anton van Leeuwenhoek – known as the “Father of Microbiology” because he
pioneered in the field of microscopy. The very first scientist to describe and observe
microorganisms and called it “animalcules”. He also studied about muscle fibers,
bacteria, spermatozoa and blood flow in capillaries.



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonie_van_Leeuwenhoek


Matthias Jakob Schleiden – he said that, “every structural part of a plant was made
up of cells”. He is a German Botanist




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_theory#/media/File:PSM_V22_D156_Matthias_Jacob_Schleiden.jpg



Theodore Schwann – a Greman Zoologist who stated in 1839 that, “all animals are
composed of cells

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_theory#/media/File:Schwann_Theodore.jpg

Rudolf Virchow – he stated, “Omnis cellula e cellula” meaning cells come from pre-
existing cells.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Virchow

E. The teacher let the learners create a song by group, based from their knowledge on some of the biologists and
their contributions to the discoveries of the cell. Assigned a biologist for each group to avoid duplication. It can be
one stanza only and they can use any tune that they want to.

F. The thik-pair-share strategy can be applied and let the learners share in front of the class what are their learnings.

G. The learners will answer the questions
1. “ What do you think is the importance of a microscope?”
2. “If microscope was not introduced a long time ago, what do you think would have happen to
microbiology?”

H. Let the learners draw an arrow between the biologists and what they say about the cell.

Robert Hooke plant cells

Theodore Schwann animal cells

Matthias Schleiden pre-existing cells
Rudolf Virchow animalcules

Note: The teacher should remind the students about the time allotted for the gallery walk and the song
writing activity.

ACTIVITY SHEET

I. OBJECTIVE/S:
1. identify the biologists and their contibutions in the discoveries of the cell
2. cut-out pictures of biologists who have contributions in the discoveries of the cell
3. create a song on the Biologists and their contributions in the discoveries of the cell

II. MATERIALS:
Manila paper
Pentel pen
Pair of scissors
Pictures of Biologists

III. PROCEDURES:
1. The learners will be grouped into five. The teacher will assigned an area where each group will stay first
for the gallery walk. After three minutes each group will move by walking in a clockwise direction.
2. Write down important terms that you read in the different stations.
3. After the gallery walk,you go back to your assigned working area.
4. Cut-out pictures of the different Biologist and paste it on the first column on the table below.
5. Fill- out the table below.

Picture of the biologist Name of the biologist Nationality Contribution/s

IV. ANALYSIS:
1. Who was the very first scientist to use the word “cell”?
2. Who was the first one to use the microscope?
3. Who discovered “animalcules”?
4. What are considered as “animalcules” nowadays?
