DAILY LESSON LOG

Grade 8 Science (4rth quarter)

I. OBJECTIVES

The learners shall be able to recognize the organisms belong to Kingdom Protista.

A. Content Standards
The learners demonstrate an understanding of the species as being further classified
into a hierarchical taxonomic system
B. Performance Standards
The learners should be able to report difference between the three-domain
systems of classification.
C. Learning Competencies/ Objectives & LC Codes
The learners should be able to classify organisms using hierarchical taxonomic
system. (S8LT-IVh-20)

IV. PROCEDURE

I. PROCEDURE TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY

A. Preparation Checking of attendance. Setting of A simple activity for checking of
Standard. attendance.
B. Reviewing of
previous lesson or
presenting the new ANSWER AND QUESTION:
lesson

We already discuss the 3 Domain of

Classifications.

What are those again? Archae. Bacteria, Eukaryota

Give one example of Archae? Methanogen

Give one example of Bacteria? Cyanobacteria

\\

Yesterday, we tackle the last domain Protista, Fungi, Plantae and

which is the Domain Eukaryota. Now, Animalia.
can you enumerate its 4 types of
kingdom?

C. Establishing purpose
for the lesson
I gave you an assignment last meeting. Student expected answer:
Were you able to find out if they Eukaryotes
prokaryotes or eukaryotes?

Why do you say so?

Protista are multicellular

organisms.
D. Presenting example
or instances of the
PICTURE SHOWING:
lesson

The following pictures are from Kingdom Protista.

Domain Eukaryota. Which Kingdom
they might belong?
\\

Statement of the objectives:

Today, we will discuss the first

kingdom in Domain Eukaryota which
Kingdom Protista.

E. Discussing new
concept of the lesson Based on the pictures that I have
and practicing new shown. Can you define what is Students provides various
skills #1 Protists? answers.

Protista, group of comparatively
simple organisms, called protists, that
have characteristics of both plants and
animals.

Do you have any idea where can we

find Protista organisms?
Students expected answers:
Everywhere
There are a wide variety of protists,
and they inhabit many different
environments—fresh water, seawater,
soils, and the intestinal tracts of
animals, where they perform crucial
digestive processes.

How many Phyla does Kingdom

Protista have?

Does anyone of you can give

16 phyla.
examples of Protists?
\\

Students provide assumptions.

Activity 1: GUESS me!

Can you name what is this species?

Seaweeds.

Amoebas can cause diseases such as

Malaria.

Amoebas

These are examples of Kingdom

Protista

Slime molds
F. Discussing new
concept of the lesson How does Protists reproduce?
Students provides various
and practicing new
skills # Some of the Protists reproduce answers.
Asexually. What do we mean by
asexually?
Students expected answer: They
Protists produce asexually by Mitosis, don’t need partner to reproduce.
Fission, Budding and spores.
\\

Do they also produce sexually?

Protists produce sexually by gametic

meiosis, zygotic meiosis, or sporic
meiosis

Yes
G. Discussing new
concept of the lesson Protists differ in size, movement and
and practicing new method of obtaining energy. Though
skills #3 most protists are microscopic, some
can grow to as high as several meter.

There 3 classifications of Protista in

terms of method in obtaining energy.
Who can enumerate the 3
classifications?
Phototrophs, Heterotrophs,
Let’s take first the Phototrophs. Sporozoan

How phototrophs obtain their foods?

Plants make their own food by

Photosynthesis. Phototrophs are like
plants in that they chlorophyll.

Algae, dinoflagellas and euglenoids

are example of Phototrophs.
Students expected answers: They
produce their own food.

This is dinoflagellates. Can you locate

where is the flagella of this Protista?

Flagella or also called cilia.

\\

Common in freshwater habitats but

sometimes found also in marine
environments.

Does euglenoid and dinoflagellates Flagellas are like the tail of the
had a similarity? Protista.

Next, the Heterotrophs.

If phototrophs make their own food.

How about heterotrophs?

Unlike phototrophs, heterotrophs feed

on other organisms. They depend on
other species.

Lastly, the sporozoan. Do you ever

encounter the word sporozoan?

Sporozoan are nonmotile and form

spores. And they are all parasitic.

For example, the malaria disease gives

infectious cells known as sporozoites.

Does malaria sporozoan considered

are parasites?
They have both cilia or flagella.
Yes, malaria sporozoans are parasites.

Various answers from the

students.

Students provides various

responses.
