 TEACHING LEARNING PROCESS

Induction/Introduction: Mind mapping and discussion on meaning of the

term cell in various fields.

Experience and Reflection: 1.Posing questions to draw out

the concept to understand
cells are building blocks of
living body by comparing
arrangement of bricks in a
wall and cells in an onion peel. .
2. Observation of compound
microscope and its parts for
utility.

 Check For Understanding Questions TLMs (Digital + Print)
1. Factual: 1. What is the structure of nerve cell, how do they look like? What is the relation between its structure and function? Pictures or charts of carious cells like
2. Cells are the basic structural units of living organisms. Explain. Draw flow chart showing structural organization of living body blood cell, nerve cell, muscle cell,
that starts with cell. Amoeba, Paramecium, Bacteria, Wall
3. Why chloroplasts are found only in plant cells? with bricks, Cells in onion peel, Nucleus.
4. Why do only plant cells possess extra protection by cell wall? Microscope with material used for
5. Cells are commonly microscopic. But the eggs of birds like hen and ostrich are larger in size and can be visible to observation of specimens, permanent
naked eye. What is the reason for their larger size? slides of Amoeba and Paramecium.
