a) Greetings

Good evening, class! Good evening, Sir!

 b) Checking of Attendance

You may now take your seats. Do we have any

absentees today? Ms. Monitor, (The class monitor checks the attendance)

Okay Very Good

c) Energizer

Now, let’s have an energizer. This energizer is called No, Sir

“Earn to Pick”. Are you familiar with this?

This game will showcase your cognitive skills in our

class discussion. The mechanics are very simple, you
just need to answer my questions and each question
that you’ve answer has a corresponding points.

And at the end of our lesson, you will be given a

chance to pick a snack of your choice depending on
the amount of points that you earn because each
snack has a corresponding price.

Is that clear?
Yes, Sir
So you better give focus with the discussion for you
to be able to answer my question to get a chance to
earn some points

Before we start, I want you all to stand up

(The students will stand up)
Then raise your both hands and shake it for 5
seconds (The students will raise their hand and shake it)

Okay good

You can now put your hands down

(The students will put their hands down)
Now rotate your hips for 5 seconds just like what
I’m doing (The students will rotate their hips)

Okay good

Since you follow my instruction very well, I will

give each of you 5 points as your starting amount.

You better stay focused and listen very well! Okay?

Yes, Sir!

A. Activity

a1. Review

Before we proceed to our lesson, let’s have

first a review of what have been discussed last
meeting.
 What is our topic last meeting?
Sir, last time we discussed about the different levels
That’s right! of biological organization.

Do you still remember some of the levels of

biological organization? Yes, Sir

If that so, I will be flashing some pictures and you

are going to identify what level of organization that
pictures belong.

I will pick a name in this box, and the name that I

will get will get the chance to answer

Is that clear?
Yes, Sir
Okay, here’s the first picture

What level of biological organization is this, and

how do you say so?

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms.

Sir, it is a community because there are group of

That’s right! I will give you 5 points for that fishes but differ in species simply, it has a group of
different populations of species that live and interact
How about this one? in the same area

Thank you Sir!

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms.

Same question, What level of biological organization

is this, and how do you say so?
Correct! You got 5 points for that!
For the last one.
Sir, this is a population because it shows a group of
deer of the same species that live in the same area
and can interbreed.
Thank you Sir!

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms

What level of biological organization is this, and

how do you say so?
Very Good! I will give you 5 points for that
I see that you still remember our last discussion
a2. Motivation
Sir, this is an ecosystem, because as we can see,
there are animals, plants, water, microorganism and
other living and non-living components that interact
with each other and their surroundings.
Thank you Sir!

Now, before we proceed to our class discussion, let

us first read our learning objectives

Please read everyone

At the end of the lesson, the students will be able

to…
1. Identify the organelles that are present or
absent in plant and animal cell
2. Describe the unique function of plant and
Thank you animal cell based on the presence of
particular organelles
3. Explain why the cells is considered the basic
Now let’s have an activity structural and functional unit of all organism
I have here 2 brown envelopes. Each of these
envelopes has something inside.

I will be grouping you into two groups, my right side

is the Group 1, and the other side is going to be the
Group 2.
Yes, Sir
Is that clear?
Okay, These will be distributed among you.

(The teacher will distribute the envelopes)

You can now open the envelope

What do you see in the envelope?

That’s right! , there are puzzle pieces inside the

envelope that you need to arrange. I will give you 3
minutes to do it. There are puzzle pieces Sir

Are you guys ready?

You can now start! Of course Sir

Time’s Up!

Are you done class? Yes, Sir

Good job everyone

Please give each other 5 claps

B. Analysis
Okay, kindly choose 1 representative to show your (Students will choose their representative)
group work in the class

Please stand up and show it in each group.

The image that you guys get is a Plant Cell and an

Animal Cell

Can you guess what type of cell is that Group 1?

Sir, I think this is a Plant Cell
How do you say so?
Because of its color which is green and also because
Good observation! of this large thing that loos lie a storage of water

How about Group 2, what type of cell is that?

Sir, I think this is an Animal cell
Why do you think so?
Because of its shape and its color
Okay, good observation too

Later we’ll see if you guys are correct

Thank you. You can now both sit down

How did you find the activity guys?
Anyone from the Group 1, can you share something
about how did you come up with the image and what
technique you guys do to finish the activity
Satisfying Sir!
Sir, while doing the activity we first disseminate the
puzzle pieces in order to see the big picture, and then
as group we use our teamwork to figure out the
picture while arranging it. Wherein we start with the
 corners onto the middle part.

Thank you

How about the Group 2, How did you guys come up

with the image and what technique you guys do to Sir, just like the Group 1, we also use our teamwork
finish the activity? to work collaboratively in order to finish the activity,
wherein all of our members give their assistance to
figure out the image.

Thank you Sir!

Thank you

Since you guys work well with your group mates, I

will give each of you 5 points.

(The teacher will give the prize to the representative

of each group)

I see that each member contributed to finish the

output and each group used their teamwork to work
collaboratively.

That activity reflects our topic for this evening which

is cell.
Sir, I notice that this cell has different parts
Kindly look at the image of a cell that you get

What can you say about a cell? Or what did you

notice about this cell?

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms

That’s Right, good observation

Each parts of a cell has a significant job or work to

function as one which is relevant to what you guys
Yes Sir.
do in trying to figure out the picture.

Wherein each of you helped each other, give their

ideas and support to work well and finish the
activity. And just like the cell; it has their function in
our body especially with our everyday living.
Have you ever wondered how we are able to do
things like speaking, breathing, eating and even the
movements that you’ve done earlier?

C. Abstraction
c1. Discussion

The responsible for that is our cells

Cells make up all living things. They are essentially

the building blocks of life. Every living thing in the Yes Sir
world is made of different kinds of cells.

We humans, animals, plants and all other living

organism are made up of cell.

Cells are too small to be seen without the aid of the Sir, a microscope is used mostly in laboratories by a
microscope. scientist to magnify things that are too small to be
seen by our naked eye.
Are you guys familiar with a compound microscope?

Yes, Sir
Can you tell me something about the function or use
of a microscope?

(picks a name in the box)

Plant Cell, Sir

Mr/Ms
Animal Cell, Sir
Very well said! Here’s 5 points for you

Since there are things that are much smaller that are
naked eye can’t see, we can use a microscope to
view and examine much smaller specimen like cells.

Yet within each cell are even smaller structures that

carry out the activities of the cell. These structures
are called organelles

Earlier I give you a puzzle about a plant and animal

cell

Right?

Now I’ll be showing some pictures of a plant and

animal cell. Let’s see if your guesses are correct

Again Group 1, what is your guess?

How about the group 2?

Okay then, let’s see if your answers earlier are

Correct

(Shows a visual representation of a plant and animal

cell)

Yes, Sir

Congratulations, all your guesses are correct!

Now, let’s delve into some of the particular

organelles and its function in plant and animal cell.

And while I’m discussing, I have here a table that

will be distributed to each of you.

(The teacher will show the table)

Organelles Plant Cell Animal Cell

Cell wall
Cell
membrane
Mitochondri
a
Nucleus
Centrioles
Chloroplast
Vacuoles
Cilia and
Flagella

Here, you can describe or put a check if the

organelle is present either in plant cell or animal cell

Is that clear?

(The teacher will distribute the paper)

Get one and pass

Now let’s continue our discussion

Animal and plant cell have so much in common and
differences with their parts or their organelles.
Both of them have a cell membrane, nucleus, golgi
complex, ribosomes, mitochondria and lysosomes.
Sir, the cell membrane controls the movement of
substances in and out of the cell.
Thank you Sir!

Again, what is the function of a cell membrane?

(picks a name in the box)

Sir, the mitochondria generates energy for the cell to

Mr/Ms use for its processes. They’re often called the
‘powerhouses’ of the cell.
Correct! Here’s 5 points for you
Thank you Sir!

How about the mitochondria?

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms

Correct! Here’s 5 points for you

There are 5 parts that plant and animal cells differ.

First is the Cell Wall

Sir, maybe because it doesn’t suit with the

Animal cells do not have a cell wall compared to characteristics of an animal cell.
plant cells.

Thank you Sir!

Do you have any idea why animal cells do not have
Cell wall?

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms

Great guess! Here’s 5 points for you

Basically, it’s true, because unlike plant cells, animal

cells require a higher flexibility and mobility
wherein the absence of a cell wall allows animal cell
to change shape and fulfill specialized functions.

In plants, the cell wall provides strength and supports

the cell membrane. When too much water enters or
leaves a plant cell, the cell wall can prevent the
membrane from being torn.

That’s the reason why plant cell have cell wall

Next is the Centrioles

Animal cells typically have a pair of centrioles
located near the nucleus while plant cells generally
lac centrioles or a typical centrosome structure.
Centrioles are essential during cell division,
facilitating the separation of chromosomes.
Next is the flagella and cilia Yes, Sir
Flagella and Cilia are present in some animal cells
while plant cells typically do not have flagella or
cilia.
Flagella are usually longer and fewer in number,
providing a whip-lie motion for cell movement.
While cilia are shorter and more numerous, often
involved in moving substances along the cell Yes, Sir
surface.
Are you guys getting it?
No, Sir
Okay, now let’s move with the Chloroplast
The green leaves have special cells that contain
chlorophyll that can be found in chloroplast wherein
they use the energy from sunlight to make their own
food in a process called photosynthesis.

So can we say that plant cell has two powerhouses?

Sir, chloroplast are specialized for photosynthesis,

capturing light energy, and converting it into
Are mitochondria and chloroplast the same in terms
chemical energy, while mitochondria are involved in
of function in a plant cell?
cellular respiration, extracting energy from nutrients.

Then how do chloroplasts differ from mitochondria Thank you Sir!

in terms of function?

Now that we are done with our discussion

Do you guys have any question clarifications, or

additional information regarding our topic this
evening?

D. Application
d1. Application

Okay then, let’s see if you guys understand our

discussion this evening.

Let’s say

You’re part of a team studying the environmental
impact of a new industrial plant. Unexpectedly, you
find microscopic organism near the plant that seem
to thrive in different conditions.
How would you investigate the cellular structures of
these organisms to determine whether they exhibit
features of plant or animal cells?
Sir, I will use a microscope to examine the cells
structure, shape, and size and I will look for
organelles typical for plant cells lie cell wall, larger
vacuole and chloroplast, while in animal cells are
organelles lie centrioles, flagella and cilia.

(picks a name in the box) None, Sir

Mr/Ms

Excellent!
That’s a great way to examine whether that specimen
has a feature of plant or animal cells.
Yes, Sir
I will give you 10 points for that!

Do you guys have any question?

d2. Valuing
Then I am going to ask you this question, First,
“Think of anything that symbolizes a cell and its
function in our daily lives
Are you guys done thinking?
Then explain why it symbolizes a cell and what is the
importance of it in our daily lives
Cells are like family in terms of being connected and
helping each other every day. Similar to cell, each
member of the family has their duties and
responsibilities to do and if one family member gets
sick, everyone is affected.

(picks a name in the box)

Mr/Ms

Wow that’s a very heart felt answer, Very Good!

Here’s 10 points for you

It can also be a society, because just like cells there

are different roles that people play to make a
community work smoothly. Each of you has a
specific job; just like the organelles in a cell.
Wherein we, as an individual in our community it is
important for us to work together to create a
functional and thriving society.

Okay, now count all your points and then make a

line for you to get or choose a snack that you like
according to the points that you earn.

Congratulations everybody!

I hope you understand something about our lesson

this evening

Goodbye Class!
