Daily Lesson Plan in Grade 10 Biology

School Sabino Rebagay Memorial HS Grade Level 10

Teacher Rina R. Romano Learning Area Science (Biology)
Time and Date 4TH Week Day 3 Quarter 3rd Quarter

I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content The learners demonstrate an understanding of:
Standard 1. the information stored in DNA as being used to make proteins
2. how changes in a DNA molecule may cause changes in its
product
3. mutations that occur in sex cells as being heritable
B. Performance
Standard
C. Learning The learners should be able to:
Competency Explain how protein is made using information from DNA. (S10LTIIId-37)
D. Specific At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
Learning Outcome 1. Illustrate the central dogma of biology.
2. Transcribe DNA sequences into mRNA sequence.
3. Translate the mRNA codon into specific amino acid using the genetic
code.

PROCEDURES
Preliminaries - The students lead the prayer and arrange the seat afterwards.
- The teacher checks the attendance.
A. Elicit (5mins.) The teacher prepares a game called. “Pass the Cabbage”.

• Prior to the game the teacher prepares a cabbage model wherein each
paper contains a statement.
• As a song is played, the cabbage is passed on by the student to the
person next to her/him.
• When the music stops, the person holding the “cabbage” peels off the
paper and identify the difference between DNA and RNA. The students
will refer to the diagram below to answer the questions.
 Questions:

Basis of Comparison DNA RNA

1. Number of strands
(Single stranded/double stranded)
2. Location in the cell (Nucleus/Cytoplasm)

3. Type of sugar
(Deoxyribose/Ribose)
4. Nitrogenous base pair
(Adenine/Thymine/Guanine/Cytosine/Uracil)

B. Engage (5 - Let the students answer the following questions:

mins.)  What happens when two or three persons are asked to relay a
message to another person’s?
 Is the message always completely and correctly received? Why or
why not?

C. Explore (10
mins.) - The students will watch the video about Transcription and
Translation.
- Let the students be guided by the following questions:
a. What are the steps in making protein?
b. What are the three types of RNA?
c. Why is protein synthesis important?

The teacher divides the class into 3 groups. The group will be given a
comic strip showing a story about protein synthesis. After reading the
comic strip and guided by the video they watched, let them arrange
chronologically (1-6) the steps of transcription and translation. They will
also answer the guide questions below.

Guide Question:
1. How does transcription take place?
2. How does translation take place?
3. A construction worker brings hollow blocks to build a wall. What part
of translation resembles the construction worker’s job? What do the
hollow blocks represent?

D. Explain (20  Each group presents their output in front of the class.
mins.)
 The students will discuss the diagram below showing how
 transcription and translation is involved in making a protein

DNA sequence TAC- TAG- AGC-

Transcription ATT
mRNA sequence AUG- AUC- UCG-
UAA
tRNA sequence UAC- UAG- AGC-
Translation AUU
Amino Acids coded Met- Ile- Ser
into Protein

The teacher will show a nucleotide base sequence of a DNA. The

students will be asked to do the following:
a. Fill in the complementary DNA triplet using DNA base pairing rule.
b. Transcribe the bottom DNA strand
c. Fill in the mRNA codon
d. Use the codon chart and write the 3-letter abbreviated amino acid and
the correct tRNA anticodon.

E. Elaborate (15  Through Think-Pair-Share, the students will play the “CODON
mins.) BINGO”.
(See attached activity sheets)

F. Evaluate (5 A. Fill in the table with the needed information.

mins) Note: Use the genetic code to identify the amino acids.

Questions:
1. How does mRNA is converted into amino acids?
2. What is the role of tRNA in the process of protein synthesis?

B. Illustrate how protein is made using from DNA molecules.

G. Extend (5  Identify 5 diseases that might occur when protein synthesis goes
mins) wrong?
