Procedure:

A. Daily Routine

- Greetings

- Prayer

- Checking of attendance

- Checking of assignment

B. Lesson Proper

- Elicit: Ask the students what they had for breakfast. Ask about their prior knowledge of Go, Grow,
and Glow Food.

-Engage: Guess the zoomed picture.

(Zoomed pictures: rice, fish, sugar, chicken, milk,

Explore:

- Introduce the idea of biomolecules and describe how they serve as the basis for life.

-Use interactive graphics or visual aids to demonstrate the various categories of biomolecules, such
as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.

-Encourage learners to make notes on how these biomolecules different and are similar.

Explain:

Provide a more in-depth explanation of each biomolecule:

a. Carbohydrates: Give examples like glucose and cellulose to illustrate their function in structural
support and energy storage.

b. Lipids: Give examples such fats, oils, and phospholipids to illustrate their role in insulating cells,
storing energy, and forming cell membranes.

c. Proteins: Give examples such enzymes, antibodies, and collagen to illustrate their role in immune
system functioning, cell structure, and the breakdown of enzymes.

d. Nucleic acids: Give examples like DNA and RNA to illustrate their role in protein synthesis and
storage of genetic information.

Elaborate:

Enable students to apply their knowledge by organizing a group activity or realistic biomolecule
experiment. For example, students could examine food labels together in pairs to determine which
biomolecules are present.

Evaluate:

Evaluate the understanding of students using some kind of methods, for example during class
discussions, do a quiz, or written assignments just to assess the comprehension of the students.

Extend:

-Organize students by assigning them to create a project regarding the biomolecules, so that they
can further explore the topics and even deeper understanding.

-Let the students present their own findings by using different platforms, example: power point
presentations, creating infographics or even a video on how biomolecules are important in their
daily life.
