A Semi- Detailed Lesson Plan in General Biology 1

Prepared by: Jefferson S. Valdez

Content Cell
Content Standard The learners demonstrate an understanding of cell
structures and functions.
Performance Standard The learner shall be able to construct a 3D model of
plant/animal/bacterial cell using recyclable materials
Learning Competencies The learners describe the structure and function of major
and subcellular organelles
Code STEM_BIO11/12-Ia-c-2

I. Objectives:

At the end of the 60-minute discussion, the students should be able to:
1. describe the structure and function of different organelles in animal and plant
cells.
2. construct a 3D model of a plant and animal cell using edible materials.
3. appreciate the value of creativity, patience and teamwork in doing a task.

II. Subject Matter:

A. Topic: Anatomy of The Cell

B. Reference: Biology: Today and Tomorrow For Non-Science Majors
by Starr, Evers and Star, pages 49-55
C. Materials:
LCD Projector & Screen
Whiteboard and marker
Chalk
Supplies for Cell Model

1. Various fruits and candies used to represent the parts of the cell: raisins, gummy
worms (plain and sour), gumdrops, gum ball, jelly beans, grapes, mandarin
orange sections, sprinkles, M&M's, jaw breakers, a small stone fruit (like a plum),
dried fruit, and/or hard candy.
2. Bread

D. Values: Creativity, Patience, Teamwork

III. Procedure

1. Routinary Activities

1. Greetings
2. Prayer
3. Checking of Attendance
4. Bio-Bits (Trivia of the Day)

2. Motivation

The class will be divided into five groups. Scrambled letters will be flashed on the screen
and the students should guess what the word is. Answers shall be written on the
illustration boards given. The group with the highest point wins.

Scrambled Word Answer

ROCK CORK
SENULUC NUCLEUS
SMAAITHT DEELISCHN MATTHIAS SCHLEIDEN
TERORB EKOHO ROBERT HOOKE
DOORTEHE NHAWCNS THEODORE SCHWANN
LELC RETHOY CELL THEORY
FODLUR WIVOCRH RUDOLF VIRCHOW

3. Lesson Proper
 Using a PowerPoint presentation, the teacher will present the topic using active learning
and/or collaborative learning.

4. Generalization

The cell is considered the basic unit of life. Organelles are small structures within cells
that have specific jobs that include ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi
apparatus, vacuoles, lysosomes, mitochondria, plasma membrane and others.

5. Application

3-D Cell Model Construction

The class will be divided into five groups. Using the available materials they have on
hand, the students will construct their model within 30 minutes. After the time given,
the teacher will choose the best model.

IV. Evaluation

The group will going to present their output using the teacher-made rubric. (see
attached rubric)

V. Assignment

Draw and label the parts of an animal and plant cell.
