A Semi detailed Lesson Plan in Science 7 I. Content Standard The learners demonstrate an understanding of organisms interacting with each other and with their environment to survive. II. Performance Standard The learners should be able to conduct a collaborative action to preserve the ecosystem in the locality. III. Objectives At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to: a.) differentiate biotic from abiotic components of the ecosystem, b.) identify which of the things found in the environment are biotic and abiotic c.) propose ways on how to protect and preserve the ecosystem IV. Teaching Materials A. Topic: Components of Ecosystem B. Materials: Board, chalk or White board marker, laptop, visual aids, Smart TV C. Reference: Angeles et al., (2013). Science Vistas 7. Don Bosco Press, Inc. D. Value in Focus: Respect and conservation of ecosystem Social involvement in protecting and preserving ecosystem E. Process Skills: Observing, Identifying, Valuing, Inquiry TEACHER’S ACTIVITY A. Preliminary Activities 1. Prayer The teacher will ask the beadle to lead the prayer. 2. Greetings 3. Checking of Attendance The teacher will check the attendance of the class. 4. Review The teacher will ask the students to have a brief recap on previous topic or lesson. 5. Motivation The teacher will ask the students to go outside of the classroom and observe their school environment and determine its constituent components (Abiotic and Biotic). 1|Page STUDENT’S ACTIVITY The beadle will lead the prayer. The students will give a brief recap on previous topic. The students will observe the school environment and share their observation to the class. Guided Questions 1. What did you observe? 2. What are the physical environment you observed? 3. What are the living things around us? 6. Unlocking of difficulties The teacher will post the unfamiliar words on the The students will give their insights on unfamiliar board and ask the students about their insights. words posted on the board. 1. Ecosystem 2. Abiotic 3. Biotic B. Presentation of the lesson The teacher will give a brief introduction of the topic. C. Lesson Proper The teacher will discuss the components of ecosystem. The teacher will show a picture of example of an ecosystem. The teacher will ask the students to identify the abiotic and biotic components on the picture. The students will listen attentively to the teacher. The students will participate in the class discussion. E. Application The teacher will ask the following question to the students. Guided Questions 1. What is the importance of ecosystem to The students will answer the questions given by the teacher. human and other organisms? 2. What will happen to our ecosystem if there were change/remove in one of those factors? 3. How do the biotic and abiotic components of an ecosystem interact? F. Valuing The teacher will ask the following question to the students. Guided Questions 1. Why do we need to protect our ecosystem? The students will answer the questions given by 2. As a student, what can you contribute to the teacher. preserve and protect our ecosystem? G. Generalization "Aha! and Huh? 2|Page Each student will give one (1) AHA! (something The teacher will ask the students to give a brief synthesis of the lesson by using the “aha! and huh? " they learned) and one (1) HUH? (something they want to ask). V. Evaluation Instruction: Identify if it is biotic or abiotic. And if it is a biotic identify if they are producers, herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, scavengers or decomposers. 1. Nutrients 2. Air 3. Volcanic eruption 4. Lion 5. Koala 6. Typhoon 7. Fire 8. Rocks 9. Vulture 10. Mushroom VI. Assignment 1. Study the Ecological Relationships (mutualism, commensalism, parasitism, predation and competition) 2. Prepare for a short quiz on components of ecosystem next meeting. Prepared by: JERRICA E.
