cells.
A. Recall (Elicit)
What are the different sense organs?
How could these senses help the nervous system carry
out its function?

B. Motivation (Engage)
Getting a quick reaction from the class: Throw a small
object such as candy or a ball into a group of students.
Ask the following questions:
1. What is your reaction after knowing that a certain
object is thrown towards you?
2. How fast did you react?
 C. Discussion of concepts (Explore)
Essential Questions:

1. What is a nerve cell and a nerve impulse?

2. What are the parts of a nerve cell and their
functions?
3. Why a message is moving along nerve pathways
takes time?

D. Developing Mastery (Explain)

d. Quick “kumustahan”

A. Recall (Elicit)
How does your nervous system work?

B. Motivation (Engage)
In each group, assign students who will represent the
following: *1 Brain, *3 Sensory neurons *1 organ which will
receive the stimulus( will get the stimulus from the
 teacher) *1 organ which will respond to the stimulus (will
write the response on the board) *3 motor neurons.

C. Discussion of concepts (Explore)

Essential Question: How does the nervous system
control the bod y processes?

Activity: A Nervous Trip
