LESSON PLAN
Date: January 04, 2016

I. Objectives:
At the end of the lesson 85% of the students should
be able to:
1. describe the different types of RNA.
2. compare the three different types of RNA in
terms of functions.
3. develop awareness on the important role of
transcription and translation in genetics.

II. Subject Matter:

A. Topic: Genetics
1. Concepts/ Science Ideas: The Three types of RNA
are Messenger RNA (mRNA) brings information from the DNA
in the nucleus to the protein manufacturing area, the
cytoplasm; Ribosomes, made of ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and
ribosomal proteins hold tightly into the mRNA using its
information to assemble the amino acids in correct order;
and Transfer RNA (tRNA) supplies amino acids to the
ribosome to be assembled as protein. Transcription is the
sequence of nucleotides in DNA directs the order of
nucleotides in messenger RNA. Translation is the process
of converting the information in messenger RNA into a
sequence of amino acids that make a protein.

of Science that deals with
the study of genes and how
it affects to heredity.

during their Grade 9 level.

 Motivation:
Introducing the
intervention which is the
“Carousel Brainstorming”
strategy and giving of the
prepared answering materials.

Teaching Procedures:

 The students are divided

into 5 groups. Each group are
assigned to every station with
a particular topic.

 Students are rotating

around the classroom in

various stations for a
designated amount of time of
